Another perfect example of a spoiled North Shore Brat. What a disgrace for Deerfield. They should leave him to rot in jail instead of having his rich daddy bail him out.

My question is, what types of parents are raising these cold, heartless, careless young men?

I believe this young man's sister was in my class at Deerfield High School back in the early 90s and I can say that she seemed like a kind, well-adjusted girl. I wouldn't go making assumptions about their parents based on his inexcusable actions.

The defendant's father has indicated he will take personal responsibility for his son pending disposition," Cornwell's motion states. "The defendant will leave the jurisdiction and live with his father in Deerfield, Illinois, with house arrest if the court deems necessary.
Nope, don't think so. Jail's the best place for this defendant.

Why would they ever let this creep out?

Lock him up and throw away the keys!

The Jena six incident shows that people can be assaulted with no fear of retribution.

If I were living in the dad's neighborhood, I wouldn't feel safe with his son under 'house arrest'.

A misunderstanding?! A girl is stabbed in the vagina and his father calls it a misunderstanding? He is dillusional.

America is NOT a Christian country nor has at ever been, nor will it ever be. Also morality has nothing at all with 'Christianity' or any other religion for that matter.

I, for one, am eager to hear exactly how all of this is some big misunderstanding.

And what kind of "friend" actually goes along with something like this, acting as the driver? Hopefully this spoiled brat is ruined for life but people like him usually have parents who at least attempt to buy them out of bad situations. Hopefully in the end he will be locked up. He sounds like a spoiled rich kid, all his training in "grappling" won't help him much in there.

This happened to my daughter, got a order of protection which doesnt work for *****- Took the police two weeks to finally serve him and it was us that told them where he was at- leave home in jail, let him sit there and think about what he had done to this poor girl who will never be the same ever again because of his actions- Let him rot in jail where he belongs-

"Son, did you miss the American History class and lessons in high school?"

WOW, is he really your son?? Was he long-lost?? Did you hire a psychic to find him???

OHH, I get it--you're using "son" as a term of condescension. Nice one, Grandpa!

He studied jujitsu and Brazilian martial arts? Fat lot of good that'll do him in the prison laundry room.

He'd better stock up on candy bars and cigarettes as "bribes."

Take a look through these posts "Former", you'll see you're the only one with anything positive to say. Just because someone "seems" nice doesn't mean anyting these days. Where are you living? Dreamland?
