In my opinion.....if indeed the 14 y.o. stabed his mother (or anyone for that matter who is being attacked) while he watched his mother being rapped (or physically harmed)....then he should be within his rights and commended for taking a pro-active stance. Point 2; Too often the "law" is too weak-kneed. They should have seen this coming and did something "preventative" long before. The judicial system is full of crazies like his guy but...MORE needs to be done to stop this form of violent behavior BEFORE it escalates. I realize 1% of our total population resides in prisons but....that is NO excuse for letting slimeballs off the hook.

I know if I had been in this child's situation....I would have done at LEAST what he did by coming to the defense of the weak. He did what he did for the right reasons. And to think...he is only 14!

Our society is going, literally, to _ell and most of us stand idely by and merely watch. All of us need to become more involved.

"Atta boy Mr. 14 y.o.!" "Atta boy!" (poor kid)

Ned Mandingo says

Now this is what you call a hero. Give this young man a award. Too bad the boy didn't hit the right places or push the knife deeper.

katelih- Trust me! I could be really really mean on this subject, but it would just get removed lol. I can't stand reading about deadbeat parents anymore. It's no wonder why the youth in society now a days have criminal records and run ins with the law. It's all they know. It sickens me, and it's not even the kids' faults. It's the parents'.

katelih says

 ReallyGood, I agree with you 100%..Love the way you nicely word things. I would have sounded like an a-hole but MEANT the same thing..

chopperpilot says

Badmouth---Buddy, you need to learn some grammar.  Your grammar and punctuation is about as good as that of the Ragister staff...  You're making them look good!  Just sayin! 

Also, this guy has always been a trouble maker.  What trailer park do they live in out there in Wakeman?  

badmouth says

 the boy stabed him she yelld rape to protect her son from going to jail the kid is a nut case so is she no the kid dosnt need a parade he needs help he cauld of hit him with a bat only a killer would stab someone ive known nate for 20 plus years why did he get releast from hospitol then a day later get arrested if he realy did that

frizzlefrap says

got wooped by a 14 year old ...... i'd be ashamed of that alone!

ReallyGood says

Many of you will disagree, but I don't care. Nathan Hindle is wrong on every level. But does anybody really think that a positive outcome will result in this toxic relationship? Shame on that mom. I say that because this probably has already happened and he had never been caught. Which means...she stuck around for it to continue and jeapordize the lives of these children. Stuck around so long and through so much that this 14 year old decided to act. But the problem with that is this...the mother should have acted. She should have acted a long time ago when this crap started. So now look, her selfishness and need to have a man around has now costs this poor 14 year old a lot of issues that are going to haunt him the rest of his life. She should be locked up too. I'm so sick of these deadbeat parents that don't give a s*** about the welfare of their children. Physically and mentally.

goingforit says

 wow, not sure what you mean there neutralbuttired. I only said what I know. I care for this family very much and knowing them, they all could use some help to stay strong at this time in need.

neutralbuttired says

goingforit had it right...get your facts straight before you get on here looking stupid. Those closest to them know the real truth and you are appearantly not one of them.

neutralbuttired says

It sounds as if you where there goingforit. So, where you? No you were not, atleast I don't see your name mentioned in the paper. It is so funny that you pretend to know the truth yet you were not even there to say whether he did what they are saying or not. I truly do wish this guy luck, and hope he gets the help he needs. I would assume at this point he is seeing it as well. As for the boy, it is appearant that he has had only one dad for 12 years and he loved him. What do you do when one person you love is hurting another person you love? What do you do when you know that person will hurt you? I personally think that whether you want to be there for this guy or not, him and his family would not like the things you are saying. As for truth, you have not got the first idea so you can keep your mouth shut too.

Genius0001........ Are you kidding.... If he would have waited, his mother would most likely be dead.. Some times you just got to do what you got to do... And yes... He had the right...

2cents says

Genius0001 says

I say that even though he was defending his mother, the boy should still be charged as an adult with aggravated felonious assault, assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder because nobody has the right to take the law into their own hands. He should have called the police and let them handle the situation.

Jack518 says

I agree with you Wiredmama222. Most people think it is easy to walk away rom an abuser. But in a short amount of time, they cut off all your family, friends and support. They belittle a mate until the mate believes they are worthless. Like you said, maybe she will realize the damage this relationship has done to her son. That is one brave young man.

grandmasgirl says

@ blacktigress and fin fin........I agree with you both.

Finn Finn says

Blacktigress wasn't judging anyone.  She was simply stating that she wasn't surprised this happened given the "living arrangement / environment" which exists in this situation.  This situation is all too common today and Blacktigress is entitled to that opinion.  I am sure she and I could point out many Bible verses as well regarding fornication, anger, sexual immorality; 1 Corinthians 6:18; Galatians 5:19; Matthew 5:28.  Instead of beating up on people who are trying to live righteously, why don't you try encouraging virtue and morality?

getaclue says

 I am, proud of the police department for realizing the boy should not be charged.  And, YES, this boy needs an award.  HELL, THROW HIM A PARADE!!!!!!!!

wedge1 says

Also agree with the Professor - this kid should be given a medal in a public ceremony.  We need more teens who will stand for what's right & be willing to risk their life defending it.

wedge1 says

He gets stabbed 3 times in the back with a 6 inch hunting knife, and he is in jail right now??  A weapon like that should have sent him to the hospital with some serious internal injuries.  Why is there no account of his trip to the hospital?

Professor Playdoh says

The kid is a Hero..

My Opinion is... says

Blacktigress: Oh thee who is so holier-than-thou, might you look down upon us lowly people and watch your step before you fall off the extremely high pedestal you've placed yourself on. A few of my favorite Bible Verses: John 8:7 - “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone...”; Romans 2:1 - "You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things."; and Luke 6:41 - "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?"

Centralohioan says

I always wanted to see what a real man looked like...

wiredmama222 says

It isn't always easy to get "away" from someone who abuses you.  People always think abused women can just walk away when they can't.  It isn't that simple for them.  This woman probably has little to no self worth and has heard it every day of her life.  Those women don't even try to get out of a bad situation. 

I give a lot of credit to her son for at least trying to save her.  Perhaps now she will recognize what a strain she has placed on her child with this man in her house and get rid of him for good. 

With each time he has abused her, he has probably escalated his attacks, until one time he will kill her. 

This boy deserves a lot of credit for what he did.  I applaud his protection of his mother.  I only hope this gives her the strength to leave the creep who was attacking her and move on.  Heaven knows she needs to.

starryeyes83 says

I agree with Blacktigress  except for a few things .  

  Married people pull the same stunts.   

That piece of paper don't mean a thing when it comes to violence in the home.    I  grew up around that situation.  My  ex step dad was very violent   sober or drunk.  Only my mom  didn't put up with it  for 12 years.   We got the hell out after 5 or 6.

BGsuGSB2012 says

I'll never place the blame on a victim. However, I see why everyone is trying to essentially blame her.  She could have - and should have -  gotten out of the situation years ago.  She had the opportunities that other women in the situation could dream of: multiple arrests (to leave while in jail)and a domestic violence shelter nearby. However, just because she didn't doesn't give him the right to try to harm her again. 

@LookingDown

I don't care if she hit him before or vise versa, The fact that he had to be stabbed by a 14-year old in order for him to get off of the 14-year old's mom says a lot.  A girl could hit me 1,000 times but it still doesn't give me the right to then try to rape her. 

LookingDown says

 Love the Sandusky Register.......

did they print that some of the domistics are on her!!!!!  She might be tiny but she isn't with out fault! She ran away out of state so she didn't have to tell the truth!  Will the register write something when this is dismissed!!!  Prob. Not its the register and that isn't news!!!!

Just Thinkin says

This is why we do not need more laws, the Judges don't use the ones already on the books, this guy should have been on a chain gang long ago, !!

Unassumer says

I too commend the kid but agree that mom should have gotten away from this guy long ago.  Easier said than done though, I know.  Hopefully this is the end of the violence.

Madscd3 says

Such a shame that a mother would put her son in this situation! He will live with this the rest of his life and though he should not be punished by any means, he should be rewarded for saving his mother's life although this is not something that should be rewarded either. What a tough situation but shame on you mom.

FruGalSpender says

what is wrong with you women? you have such a low opinion of yourself that you have to have a man? any man? it is better to live alone without a man than to have trashy men such as this. too bad the son didn't cut off his pee pee.

FruGalSpender says

In the past seven years, deputies have been called to the house six times for various problems, including menacing, domestic violence and disorderly conduct. if this 6-4 200 pound turd was charged with domestic violence and menacing, how does he get to own a gun? he was convicted of not wearing hunter orange in norwalk municipal court. http://www.norwalkmunicourt.com/
