Mary Bell was ten when she killed, but this isn't an issue about criminal liability. This girl isn't a criminal, she's a victim.
I remain totally unconvinced that two grown men can't tell the difference between a ten year old girl and someone who is at least sixteen.
I suppose someone could supply a picture as evidence, of a child looking like a sexually active woman, but that's what most civilised people call child pornography.
