Three boys from Miami’s Overtown neighborhood, Jusiah Jones (12), Nelson Nunez (13), and Xavier Tyson (15, was 14 at the time), have been indicted as adults following a grand jury decision in connection with the alleged r*pe of a 12 year old girl.
According to police, the boys allegedly took the girl to a couch at a community garden called the Green Haven Project after she was walking home from a friend’s house.

Nunez allegedly s*xually ᴀss*ulted her while Jones and Tyson held her down.
When she screamed for them to stop, Jones allegedly shoved rocks in her mouth to silence her.
The ᴀss*ult reportedly lasted about 30 minutes and ended only when the boys heard her father calling her name nearby.

Jones and Nunez were ordered held without bond following their adult court appearances. Tyson’s attorney maintains his client’s innocence.
The Green Haven Project issued a statement condemning the incident and saying an opening from nearby construction allowed unauthorized access to the garden after hours.
