what are the actual charges?
“He was charged only with a civil rights violation, but additional complaints may be sought as the investigation proceeds,” said Jake Wark, spokesperson for the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office.
Does this mean that he wasn't also charged with assault?
Yes.
Yes.
sad. if he's found guilty i
sad. if he's found guilty i hope they throw the scumbag in jail.
Malloy wasn't charged with assault? If that be the case,
then he should've been.
i hope he doesn't plan on
i hope he doesn't plan on going to Europe. its very common for
girls there hold hands all the time as friends or family.
Or Asia
Same is true in Asia (or at least many places in Asia).
A Jamaica Plain man is
They were walking along making out - something not traditionally seen in either Europe or Asia.
Irrelevant to the legal case.
Tough guy, attacking a woman
Some dudes are just nothing. First time a&b, though, probably nets one probation. Hate crime potentially more serious.
There has to be more to this story.
I bet the guys girfriend started the whole thing and got into a mutual altercation with Jane and Mary. Then Malloy came out and broke it out. Malloy and his girl were probably the aggressors and Mally probably did something extra to warrant the civil rights charge. Either way this story doesnt add up. If one person swings a bag at another person, that person gets charged (if there is an arrest made.)
Yikes
Making out while walking is dangerous!
Why wasn't the woman he was
Why wasn't the woman he was with charged as well?
While 10 years is excessive, I do hope he goes to jail for a while.
