Teen Accused of Sexually Abusing 10-Year-Old Boy

pray for not only that poor boy who this happened to but the teens family because something like this will destroy and divide that family forever because of what that teen did

Amen Jennifer!!!!

Shame on the Journal News. What does Coach Artie have to do with this, he is not the father of this child. Which leads me to the question why isn't the father's name in the paper and not Artie's??? You journalist are so quickly to spread the dirt that you don't even get the facts right. There are mistakes in the article such as the address but I see you made sure to get people's attention by the using the above headline and making sure you put a town employees name to exasterbate the situation.. This is a tragic, herendous, heartbreaking ordeal and I just pray that the accused gets the help he needs and the poor boy this was happening to can get the help he requires and someday will be able to sleep at night without nightmares. How heartbreaking. Is this what this world is coming to? We will have to put nanny cams in our houses and survilance camera's on our properties? Can anyone be trusted? This town is going to the crapper Clark.

I don't think I get what you are talking about when you say "above headline". Are you talking about the Journal News or Patch? The connection made to Artie was made on a different publication.

We should all take a moment of silence no matter what religion we all are and say a prayer for the victim and the family. They need it through this difficult time. I hope it all works out for them. Such a traumatic event.

Jackie Emmerson February 24, 2012 at 01:27 am

so what????????

Jackie Emmerson February 24, 2012 at 01:28 am

ooohpps I am sorry I was reffering to Zacs comment

2benny February 24, 2012 at 02:10 am

why are all the stories different which one is the right one

Harrison Insider February 24, 2012 at 02:23 am

What a week for Harrison HS students.

AMR February 24, 2012 at 03:59 am

first of all why is it relevant to announce the "teen" background of the teens family. that is rude and immature and people need to learn to mind their business and maybe worry about their own issues instead of others. Thats the problem with harrison people know too much of other peoples business! And we all know everyone from harrison has SKELETONS IN THEIR CLOSET.. stay out of it. if people have issues its not up to YOU to announce it on any public website. another issue is people dont know the story so there is always 2 stories and the truth. The only way that these two kids will feel it for the rest of their lives is because people in this town have nothing else to talk about AND will forever hold it over these kids heads. grow up people and one day maybe people will air out your dirty laundry on a blog.

Overlooking the town February 24, 2012 at 07:25 am

AMR are you that ignorant to say the only reason these two kids will remember it is because of the town? A boy was sexually assaulted he will probably never be able to sleep with the light off and that's the comment you make. Listen families can't choose who commits a crime. This was a disgusting hannous act and a family will forever be destroyed. The poor parents of the victim will always doubt why they chose a 17 year old boy to be a babysitter of their son. Stop with the skeletons in the closet. I'm sorry if your friends with the suspects family but he should have went to jail instead of being out in 3 thousand dollars bail. He would have gotten a little bit of what he deserves. Our town judges are horrible to not remand him to the jail. Total disgrace on their part. Put him in the slammer where he belongs.

julia m. February 24, 2012 at 07:52 am

i dont disagree that he gets what he deserves but is it right to bash and talk about the teens family? He did this its his actions and he should be the only one held responsable for doing what he did to that little boy but 2BENNY was wrong for saying any of those things about his family members im sure they are humiliated enough and your cracking jokes on what happen in there lives years ago is rude and immature if you ask me who says "at least one of those kids has the gangsta gene" this isnt a joking matter what does that even mean you want to bash the accused out everyone has the right but he shouldnt have a reflection on anyone else associated with him

Jenny February 24, 2012 at 03:30 pm

Everyone needs to mind their business -NO ONE KNOWS the truth - this is a frabricated story from a child who is disturbed...NO NEED to publish a 17 year olds name and such sex acts in the Journal News either - thats even incorrect! I just ask all of you to take a step back and think - what would YOU do if it were your child being falsly accused???? And as for you "OVERLOOKING THE TOWN" who the hell are you to condem this 17 year old and to say he did such a "horrible and hannous act" who do you think you are the Judge & Jury? The kid has NOT been found guily of anything.... stop while your ahead - your the ignorant one my friend!

AMR February 24, 2012 at 03:32 pm

First of all, im not ignorant I have been a resident of Harrison my entire life and quite honestly once someone does something wrong you will always be remembered and known for that incident, for example people will say "Remember him? He's the kid that had that incident years ago." Clearly, you have another mind set or maybe your an angel but your entitled. But your making up your own accusations because you don't know the truth unless your GOD and your not. You listen to the news and newspaper but if you went to college and lived in the real world everyone knows how far that goes. That's why we have a justice system so that people can get their own stories out instead of people like you just making your assumptions. If there were more people like you who are "one sided" and assume something that they know NOTHING about then everyone would be in jail for just walking on the wrong side of the street. No one is condoning anything but leave outside information OUT, as an adult you make your own choices. Another thing, if your from Harrison you know that people have skeleton in their closet and you probably do too and people probably know about it, so who are you to justify that for yourself or anyone else? Face it, if you cant take the heat get the hell out of the kitchen.

Jenny February 24, 2012 at 04:55 pm

This is a really horrible situation all around - you should have a little more respect for all of those invloved - times like these, ESPECIALLY with two young children, we should let the familes deal with this the best they can in private, without OUTSIDE OPINIONS such as yours - which is not factual by the way.

AMR February 24, 2012 at 05:16 pm

and rightfully so.. but people need to open their minds and find out what their dealing with before they judge any situation. therefore without the nonsense and made up stories these families will deal with it privately.

AMR February 24, 2012 at 06:44 pm

Okay your opinion is clearly stated and great you know the law. But your still creating a story in your mind that you know nothing about. Once again, peoples personal lives are being aired out, that was years ago and no one remembered until you just brought it up. No one cares anymore and no one cared then about a day in the life of Artie Triolo. So, if anyone is a die hard husky fan right now, you need to re evaluate your lifestlye because if you are "proud to live in harrison" you wouldnt be degrading others who live here nor would you be making more of a mess of the situation.

Jenny February 24, 2012 at 09:58 pm

Well said

Jenny February 25, 2012 at 12:38 am

Whomever is deleting comments here other than "AMR's" comments - you should think again, his/hers comments are not going to be tolerated reagrding this matter - what if it were his/her kid being fasly accused - hit a soft spot there huh! Just everyone, mind your opinions until we see justice prevale and this will clearly illustrate - the accused being totally innocent. Be patient all!

AMR February 25, 2012 at 03:29 am

Once again jenny you cant read because when I READ your comments we hold the same position.

nicole February 25, 2012 at 07:26 am

not sure if its another rumor but i heard there was some type of altercation outside the teens house tonight involving a family member in the home. Some high school kids were beeping and yelling outside there home late at night and it escalated i hope this isntt trueee they should really leave them alone

Cutter Simpson February 25, 2012 at 07:21 pm

real talk, this kind of stuff has been going on in Harrison and every other town in the world. Don't be so nieve. It is just because of all the news sources you hear about it now.

Cutter Simpson February 25, 2012 at 07:24 pm

so Jenny where are your facts. There is no way that this stuff just comes up and there is not something in the closet. So the boy is distured how then does he know how to describe what allegidly happen?

Zach Oliva (Editor) February 27, 2012 at 03:23 pm

Please watch the language on the thread.

ScorpioSr February 27, 2012 at 10:04 pm

Isn't there a way to censor and / or edit comments before they are posted? Some language is completely inappropriate and offensive!

Zach Oliva (Editor) February 27, 2012 at 10:18 pm

No, but we can close comments on the thread completely if it continues to be a problem.
