Teens held in rape of 89-year-old woman

PORT RICHEY -- Two teens charged with beating and raping an 89-year-old woman and then trying to smother her with a pillow are being held without bail in the Pasco County Juvenile Detention Center.

Carlos Fernandez, 15, of 7151 Tudor Lane in Port Richey, and Luis Reyes Jr., 14, of 11230 Areca Drive in Port Richey, face charges of burglary to a residence, grand theft auto, attempted first-degree murder and sexual battery.

Pasco Sheriff Bob White has recommended they be charged as adults, though the final decision lies with prosecutors.

The Sheriff's Office says Fernandez, left, and Reyes, right, broke into the victim's home in the Palm Terrace Gardens neighborhood off U.S. 19 in the early hours Wednesday. The victim told deputies the attackers wore masks, beat her in her bed, raped her and ransacked her house.

They fled when she kicked one of them in the "vital parts," according to a neighbor. She went to a house nearby for help and was taken to a hospital.

Investigators say the teens were returning to the scene of an earlier crime. The week before the woman was raped, her house was broken into while she slept and the burglars stole a flashlight, some food and the woman's red Pontiac Sunfire, which was later recovered.

The Sheriff's Office says Reyes, Fernandez and a third boy, 16-year-old Sean Maus, are responsible for the April 2 burglary. Maus, of 11240 Snyder Ave. in Port Richey, is charged with grand theft auto and burglary. He is not accused of participating in Wednesday's attack.

All three teens live with two miles of the victim.

It worked for Saddam!

[stbdside]

Given their younger age and the gravity of this offense, I say chances are pretty good they will be facing some “inmate justice”.

[Jagdgewehr]

Yeah. They were probably still feeling like real “bad men” at the time these mugshots were taken. Wait until they eventually see the inside of an adult correctional institution a few years down the road. They will realize just how bad they really aren't. Inmates victimize each other just as vigorously as they do the unsuspecting and weak. These cowards are weak. They wouldn't be so smug in the face of one man bent on dispensing his own sense of justice.

the kids need to get the death penalty and their extended family needs to be deported.

[who knows what evil?]

Illegal aliens.

...not much longer...then they can vote Democrat.

Isn't that always the way?

They appear to be posing for class photos.
I wonder when they will graduate?? 2095?

Build the hanging post.

89 years old? Thats just too sick, even for jail.
Just remove them.

[allmost]

You would think. You should think. Reality? I don’t know.

"then they can vote Democrat"

Apparently, most of them already do. Possibly even more than once.

[YOUGOTIT]

BUTT since they are illegal aliens the anti-American left will say they should not be tried nor put in jail. And I doubt that they will.

[Cheetahcat]

I have been waiting for the families of these victim’s to start exacting retribution on the families of these Parasites. In some of the old countries the entire family would be removed from the gene pool

[Frantzie]

No we need to fight it like tigers. Millions of Americans are unemployed and they may wake up this time.

[pissant]

Put a bullet between their f***** eyes

[FreepShop1]

A fine example of the type of rape which should be subject to death. Unfortunately the SCOTUS said no.

[Hoffer Rand]

Yeah, just wait until Bubba finds out his new cellmate raped an 89 YO woman. I think there will be some “justice” dispensed.

[SeminoleSoldier]

Tall tree and short rope time - in a perfect world.

[org.whodat]

No reason to waste a good rope, I will fix the problem with a ball bat for free.

i am surprised that their names were given out since they are juvie’s....i think it is great along with their addresses....they should hide should they get out on bail....

It's only surprising because most newspapers voluntarily protect juvenile monsters. I'm glad to see the Tampa Tribune doesn't do so.
