(AP) WEARE, N.H. First, a father was charged with beating up his daughter's boyfriend last week after learning the two had sex. Now, police are preparing to charge the boy with sexual assault.
The 17-year-old boy from Henniker, who admitted to having sex with his 15-year-old girlfriend, will "absolutely" be charged, police said.
Weare Detective Lou Chatel said the boy will be charged as an adult and could face up to a year in jail.
Both teens admitted to having sex during school hours on Sept. 10, but off school property, Chatel said. That afternoon, he said, the girl's father went to John Stark Regional High School and attacked the boy.
School had just let out and the parking lot was filled with students and parents.
The boy suffered cuts and bruises and received two stitches to his face. The father was charged with simple assault.
It all began that morning when the girl did not show up for her first class, even though she had been seen at school.
School officials searched the building, then put out a school-wide page. When the girl didn't respond, they called her parents.
Principal Michael Turmelle the parents helped search for their daughter, called her cell phone and coordinated with school officials.
The teens returned to school at the same time, through separate doors.
The principal said he's upset at the number of people who have sided with the father.
"We all work so hard to give our kids a safe place to go to," he said. "Any time we have an act of violence, it's very upsetting because it is completely antithetical to what we're trying to accomplish."
The girl and her siblings have transferred to another school, Turmelle said.
Me too. Take care.
Yes, at times it is “acceptable behavior to use violence to achieve order through fear”.
In your Alan Alda wannabe world it is only acceptable to roll over on your back and piss on your own belly like a cur.

and you learned this at what mosque???
After reading the thread, I think it’s that NH has a rule that the age of consent is 16, not 18. He was over 16, she under.
I don’t know if they have any rules about proximity of ages, though, as some were suggesting.
Of course the principal takes no responsibility for losing track of the boy and girl—which provided the opportunity for the underage sex. But, hey, those kids had sex education.
Ah, the old one bad behavior justifies another bad behavior ploy. “But daddy so and so did it”. Does that have a juvenile ring to it?
Irrevelent argument. At least try thinking like a reasonably intelligent adult. By the way, thinking about doing something immoral, illegal or unethical is not a crime. Doing it is the crime.
Also, I never had sex with a girl younger than me or younger than 21. I dated my wife for four years. Believe it or not no sex until wedding night. I’m sure I would have if she let me. But it was important to her to wait. I loved her so I respected that. I guess that makes me an anachronym.
You got that right!
Mosque? LOL. No, Alan cur Alda, through life. There are so many examples of when violence is necessary that I don’t have time to list them all.
Here’s a saying that I read long ago. We sleep easy in our beds at night because rough men stand ready in the dark to do violence in our names. Or words to that effect. I realize Alan cur Alda that this is a horrifying reality for you and your limp wristed ilk, but it is a reality none the less.
No go watch Oprah.
LOL. Since you cannot explain why it is acceptable for an adult to attack an adolescent without name calling or regurgitating what your Imam once said, I believe it is best to end our discussion. Be well.
Is that all you can think of, is beating people up. Just fire this guy butt the same way that the HEAD MASTER needs to be done with up there in Conn.
