Schoolgirl who faced terror charges is ‘wake-up call about grooming’

Stigmatis

Rhianan Rudd. The charity Exit Hate says it is seeing more children being groomed by rightwing extremists.


Charges against Rhianan Rudd, then 15, were dropped after evidence proved she had been groomed online by rightwing extremists

Jessica Murray Midlands correspondent | UK, Jan 7 2023

Charities say the case of a UK teenager who became the youngest girl to be charged with terror offences after online grooming by rightwing extremists should be a “wake-up call” about the online vulnerability of children.

Rhianan Rudd, who was 15 when charged, took her own life at a Nottinghamshire children’s home in May last year, when she was 16.

The charges against her had by then been dropped after evidence proved she had been a victim of online grooming.

टचस्क्रीन / Touchscreen

हर कोई एक स्मार्टफोन होता है,
और उसका दिल एक टचस्क्रीन,
लेकिन समस्या तब पैदा होती है,
जब कोई व्यक्ति किसी दूसरे के साथ
एक बेसिक फोन की तरह
व्यवहार करने लगता है…

Everyone is a smartphone,
and his or her heart
is a touchscreen,
but the problem arises
when one person treats another
like a basic phone…

I look pretty tall, but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
