The family court judges were in different New Jersey counties, but the question prosecutors asked them was the same: Can we charge these male juveniles as adults on allegations of rape?
Judge James Troiano in Monmouth County said a 16-year-old girl who accused a 16-year-old boy of sexually assaulting her — and filming it — at a pajama-themed party should have been told by prosecutors to consider the long-term damage to the boy before she decided to pursue criminal charges against him. G.M.C., as court documents identified the suspect, allegedly sent a text to his friends that read, “When your first time having sex was rape.”
But the boy was college-bound, from a “good family” and an Eagle Scout, the judge said in his denial.
…
The 16-year-old girl who attended the basement pajama party told her mom the morning after the alleged attack that she feared “sexual things” had happened and that she did not understand why her body was bruised and her clothes torn, according to court documents. Her family decided to pursue criminal charges several months after the alleged assault.
About 30 teens attended the party, where both the girl and G.M.C. were intoxicated, prosecutors said. The girl had slurred speech and stumbled as she walked.
According to court documents, the two went into a closed-off, dark area. A group of boys sprayed the girl with Febreze and slapped her on the bottom so hard she found hand marks the next day.
Prosecutors said G.M.C. used his cellphone to film himself assaulting the 16-year-old girl... They said he later sent the video to friends and had sexually explicit conversations with them via text message.
In his ruling denying the waiver, Troiano dismissed G.M.C.'s alleged remarks as “just a 16-year-old kid saying stupid crap to his friends.”

In this case, as defined by the perpetrator while he was filming the rape and sending it out over social media.
Define “good.”
Cut off his balls and testicles with a rusty knife, then try him as a child.
Apparently without a hangover.
Just depraved. The whole story. 30 Sixteen year olds in pajamas, getting drunk out of their minds. Where were both of their parents? Who owned the house?
Don’t have sex outside of marriage and you won’t have this problem.
Cut off his privates with a dirty, rusty knife, and do likewise to any other male who does this, I say.
If it helps, please know I’m for doing this to the guy who rapes men such as yourself under these circumstances, too.
After a fashion, and the judge with that ruling, one would or should be worried that since the courts didn’t take care of it, maybe the girl has some family that may care to distribute some ‘renegade justice’ on behalf of her.
You have your ‘friends’(court etal) and she has hers.
Suck it up
Well, if he’s an Eagle Scout he must be a wonderful guy. No further evidence required, case dismissed.
SOOOOO_ a “Kid from a good family” cannot stray off the reservation?
His penis is special???
Seems to me that his own video of the event is enough to convict him & pull him out of society for a long time.
Sure wish sometimes that judges were victims of rape themselves.”
Maybe then they would ‘GET IT”.
The judiciary is completely out of control. We need a way to hold them accountable for their rulings. Everyone else is responsible for their actions. Why not hold judges to some strict standards. Not only in this case for the partisan activists that infest the federal bench as well.
The article didn’t say whether she drank, or if, on the other hand, she was drugged. But hey-— she was incapacitated -—and that’s as good as consent!
Let’s acquit all the rapists who were drunk, ok?
The “I had a couple beers, and then -— whoops -— I inadvertantly raped somebody” defense.
I wouldn’t trust that judge with my daughter. Or you, apparently, either.
There was evidence, there were marks of physical assault, and a freaking video that got shared around. What the heck, I’m sure it was all some sort of misunderstanding...
It is the Washington Post.
I would like to see all the evidence, hear all the testimony.
My comment was a generic one that men are assumed to be guilty, and women can change their mind after the fact, and it is considered politically correct.

apparently they both were incapacitated and the rape charge inst aobut force, it is about age. They saw with videos and we didnt. I am assuming that after watching the video the courts think that what happened was sexual assalt and not rape.
After seeing a number of young men railroaded with rape charges, I would be very careful about hanging that charge around the neck of someone. There apparently was no force.
It does not surprise me at all.A Bill Ayers jr., or a Bill Clinton jr, is being groomed to run the Country
Should throw the effin parents in jail.
You call that "railroading" him?
What do you call what happened to her?
HE called it rape.
Considering the amusing video he circulated, he would also call it entertainment.
there are some freepers that would approve of this attack....
