    Default Kid dies from mortal kombat Moves

    A 17- and 16-year-old have been ordered to stand trial after killing a seven-year-old girl by "imitating moves" from the Mortal Kombat games.
    Heather Trujillo, 16, and boyfriend Lamar Roberts, 17, were supposed to be babysitting Trujillo's half-sister Zoe Garcia when they seized the opportunity to drink alcohol and "hit, kick and body-slam" her, in a beating that police said imitated Mortal Kombat.
    Witnesses say Roberts performed a back kick on Garcia, from which she did not get up. He then cracked an egg in her mouth, apparently to check if she was faking unconsciousness.
    When Garcia regained consciousness Trujillo sent her to bed, according to the documents, but she stopped breathing 15 minutes later.
    Trujillo and Roberts tried reviving Zoe under running water before calling 911, but she later died in hospital.
    Roberts later told a friend, "he was doing martial arts on her and that his hands were registered weapons."
    A Weld County judge ruled last week that there was enough evidence to warrant a trial for Roberts, who's accused of child abuse resulting in the death of the child, on June 20. His girlfriend, Zoe's half-sister, is scheduled to stand trial July 7.
    Midway has made no official comment on the accusation of a Mortal Kombat link. First jerk to make a fatality joke gets 7 years' wrath of the internet.

    Brutality. No seriously there's no MK link cuz all of that stem from many games and even more movies. Why didn't they name the alcohol instead since it was under that influence this was done... Anyways sad outcome whatever the cause.

    This is a sad case, it's even more sad how these people blame video games for everything. Why didn't they blame the alcohol since these minors were drunk? *sigh*

    This generation is growing up on Dora, SpongeBob and Backyardigans so we will know in about 15 years if the TV was really to blame for the violence in society.

    Seriously, why did they not practice these moves against each other instead of the poor innocent 7 yr old, i'm sure none of the characters in Mortal Kombat are in the 7-8 yr old age group.

    Tommy, you have been here long enough to know you need to post the link to any article you didn't write yourself.

    I can't find this exact article on the internet, but it looks like this might be from 2007.
