Mom defends Queens 16-year-old arrested for punching woman down church steps as a ‘good boy’
NY Daily News ^ | 4/13/2024 | Kerry Burke

The mother of the teen terror accused of punching a Queens grandmother down the steps of a church is defending her son, calling the 16-year-old robbery suspect with a long arrest record an average kid who “does everything he’s supposed to do.”

“My son is a good boy,” the 54-year-old mother told the Daily News Friday night at her Queens home.

She said she was unaware that her son attempted suicide by wrapping his shirt around his neck and trying to choke himself while in custody at the 107th Precinct station house early Friday.

“I’m not aware of him having any mental problems,” she said. “It’s news to me that he tried to commit suicide.”

The suicide attempt occurred just before the suspect was due to be arraigned on robbery and assault charges for the brutal mugging of Irene Tahliambouris, who was punched and knocked down a flight of stairs outside the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church in Briarwood on April 7.

Tahliambouris, 68, suffered a fractured skull and was hurt so badly that she didn’t recognize her own relatives for days as she recovered at the hospital, her family said.

The teen’s name was not publicly disclosed because of his age and he is being charged as an adolescent offender.

Besides the attack on Tahliambouris, the teen is also charged in a robbery just three days before.

In that case, the teen stalked a 50-year-old woman to a bank at the Rochdale Village Shopping Center, then followed her to her building, where she said he confronted her in the elevator and took her car keys. He fled in her car.

Some of the problem is, the environment punishes good people who defend each other and themselves, from animals.

Mom’s probably a habitual shop lifter along with all the other usual baggage.

And we're all expected to think and say, ‘this isn't about race’, when race is almost always a factor in these situations. We have all these murderous yutes running around causing mayhem everywhere but we're labeled racists if we even notice the similarities of the perps in these crimes.

I say enough! Be a realist and know the truth, even if they label you a racist for it.

If it were my mother or grandmother, it would be the cop committing suicide.

Very true. I’m not recommend it, but if you did it, it would have to be carefully planned and done anonymously.
