Butt-Slapping Charges Finally Dropped
Written by Brian Garst, Posted in General/Misc.
Updating this story from a few weeks ago, the two boys being held hostage by power-mad DA Bradley Berry have finally been liberated.
judge dismissed charges this morning against the two Patton Middle School teens accused of sexual harassment for swatting girls on the buttocks.
Judge John L. Collins said he acted “in the interests of justice” after both prosecutors and the boys’ defense lawyers said four alleged victims had signed a civil compromise in the case, which drew national attention. The victims said they want to drop the charges.
Dennis Prager has targeted Bradley Berry for removal from office:
Bradley, like Nifong, must be removed from office. Anyone who believes that seventh-graders who swat girls’ buttocks on “slap butt day” are sex criminals who should be charged with crimes that would permanently label them as sex offenders is a dangerous fool. A district attorney who believes that is a dangerous fool. Bradley Berry has acted like Mike Nifong. He needs to be punished like Mike Nifong.
