Teens in Taped Bullying Case Get Curfew, Monitoring

A judge has ordered five juveniles who admitted taking part in the videotaped bullying of a 13-year-old Philadelphia-area boy to abide by a curfew and 45 days of home monitoring.

The teens also were ordered Thursday to perform community service after admitting their roles in return for having the most serious charges against them dropped. They received curfew restrictions ranging from 60 to 90 days and were released to their parents.

The 13-year-old victim, Nadin Khoury, was dragged through the snow, stuffed in a tree and hung by his jacket from a 7-foot-high fence post in the Jan. 11 attack.

“They started beating me up and putting me on the gate and I had got caught on the gate,” Khoury told NBC 10.

Khoury did not have any serious physical injuries.

A sixth teen had been scheduled for trial but also entered into an agreement with prosecutors. He remains in custody pending a March 3 disposition hearing.
