HANNIBAL, N.Y. (AP) Some boys and girls in an Oswego County school district must sit in separate sections of their school buses following the arrest of two students for engaging in sexual activity on their ride home.
State police said a 14-year-old boy was charged in juvenile court with forcing a 13-year-old girl into a sexual act and a 16-year-old boy was charged with a misdemeanor count of sexual misconduct involving a 14-year-old girl.
Investigator Stephen Cadwell said the Hannibal Central Schools students were all on the same after-hours bus ride Nov. 7.
"These cases are coincidental," Cadwell said. "There was no conspiracy."
Superintendent Michael DiFabio said boys and girls now are riding separately on three after-hours bus runs, which service up to 15 students each from sports or extracurricular activities at the middle and high schools.
"Parents expect a safe environment, and this does not provide a safe environment," DiFabio said. "It's embarrassing for the district to admit things like this happened. I just apologize to the parents for having this happen."
The school and state police began an investigation after the 13-year-old girl told her mother. Both boys were awaiting court appearances.
Hannibal is 29 miles northwest of Syracuse.

I personally know a girl that was assaulted on the bus. It happens more often than you think.Perhaps so. Maybe they are too scared to scream. I just know that with all those people around, I'd be screaming at the top of my lungs, and kicking for all I was worth.

"On the bright side, at least the boys weren't committing the sex acts on eachother, like I'd originally thought from the headline."
I don't think thats better. The girls were forced. Thats always worse than consensual sex, even homosexual consensual sex. Those punks ought to be tossed in prison for a few months so they can see what it's like being forced to do sexual acts by someone bigger and stronger. Then they should be forced to return to school with the word 'rapist' written on their foreheads.

Not that I'm defending Klintoon but this started before he came to office. I blame TV shows - the sexual content of the shows. When I was a kid that was restricted for after 10 pm - when most kids were asleep. I blame the music and the video games as well. And of course, parents not disciplining their children, suing schools when THEIR child has done something wrong, etc.Maybe it's just me, but I blame the parents who allow their children to watch, play with and listen to the TV shows, video games and programs. Yes, there is FAR too much sex in all of those mediums, but that is why my children don't watch anything I haven't approved as kid-friendly.

"I don't believe either girl was assaulted. . .they participated willingly."
Then you believe wrong. If they had participated willingly they would be just as guilty as the boys and would have been charged too.

"The lad was also charged with kidnapping.....that would indicate the DA believes she was an unwilling participant."
or that she was underage and unable to give legal consent. If you take off with someone under 18 be prepared to face kidnapping charges whether they agreed to go along or not.

I count one grammatical error, two stylistic lapses, and the previously noted spelling error.
The internet grammar flame is a harsh mistress.

"You didn't cry at the series finale of "Laguna Beach"?
lol.... of all the dumb reality shows on TV "Moronic Beach" has to be the stupidest. It brings TV drama full circle. It is a staged reality program, which if you think about it, is exactly the same thing as your average daytime soap opera. I can't watch it without making fun of it. It's so bad it's funny.

or too embarrassed. I am guessing it has been a long time since you have been in school and perhaps you have forgotten the power of peer pressure and the desire to conform?

Normally there is no consequence to this behavior on the school bus. But these two boys were heard to utter the phrase, "Oh my God!" at the point of climax. The school could not tolerate such a violation of the separation of church and state during the course of a school function.
Thus the legal sanctions.

Esquire magazine says that the popular Bill Clinton is the "most important man in the world" at this time. I have always thought that those tens of millions of Americans rushing to make Hillary president are under the notion that the popular Bill will still be really "in charge." A poll this week also shows that the American people trust Bill Clinton far more than they do his presidential successor.

Ah! were you at the wrong institution or the wrong country?
"Public Schools" in England are the elite private schools ( Eton, Harrow, Merchant Taylors, etc) Sounds like a mis-nomer, but they were designated "Public" - as in open to those who could afford the fees, as opposed to Church schools (free, but charity based and open to church members only)
So a Public School education in England was the best you could get.

"Sex acts on a school bus."
How do we deal with this, introduce them to girls, or give them a set of wrenches?

Plenty of witnesses on the school bus. They know what really happened and if she was lying would have told the police so.

Plenty of witnesses on the school bus.Uh huh. These are the same 'witnesses' that this girl claims sat by and allowed her to be sexually assaulted without saying a word or doing a thing.
Sure.
