"No Gay Thursday" - Teens Charged In Brutal Hazing


Story out of Tredyffrin Township, Pennsylvania:

District Attorney Tom Hogan calls this a simple case of ignorance, violence and what he calls a shocking lack of supervision.

It involves players of Conestoga High School’s varsity football team, and a hazing tradition, for lack of a better term, that was known as “no-gay Thursday.”

“No gay Thursday,” according to Hogan, meant things that would normally be considered gay, were not gay when done by upperclassmen to underclassmen in the locker-room.

Examples include a senior walking up behind a underclassman and putting his genitals on the younger player’s head; a freshman being forced to undress an upperclassman, or underclassmen being forced to strip to their underwear and clean the locker-room.

The DA says a very talented, but cocky freshman player decided he’d had enough and tried to leave the locker-room, two seniors held him down, while another grabbed a broomstick and began poking at his groin, eventually DA Hogan says, penetrating the boy’s rectum.

The 14-year-old boy told his father last month. The father went to the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District.

The school district immediately alerted police and the DA’s office.

The three aggressors were all 17 at the time. Charges against them include conspiracy to commit assault, possession of an instrument of crime, unlawful restraint, and terroristic threats. Cont. (Video)
