Although, Wayne Treacy was arrested and faces an attempted murder charge, he is awaiting the determination of the prosecutors to find out if he will be charged as an adult - many a people would agree that he should be charged as an adult regardless of his age or why he attacked Josie Lou Ratley.
Allegedly, a text message remark about his brother, who recently committed suicide, is said to have set Wayne Treacy off. He slipped his feet into steel-toed boots, sent text messages to friend(s) saying he was going to kill Ratley, then peddled his bike three miles to Deerfield Middle School, where a 13-year-old girl pointed out Ratley. Treacy attacked and began beating Ratley with his fist, before using those steel toed boots as a deadly weapon.
According to reports Josie Lou Ratley has underwent two surgeries, has stitches up and down not one side of her head but both; one surgery was to remove a piece of her skull due to brain swelling, the other to remove a blood clot. She was in a medically induced coma, and doctors at Broward General Medical Center are beginning to wean her off of the drugs used to put her into the medically induced coma. It is too soon to know her outcome.
The 13-year-old girl's lawyer, Jonathon Marne, said she was a best friend of Ratley's. Wayne Treacy did not know what Ratley looked liked, so had that "best friend" not pointed out Ratley to him Josie may not be in the hospital today with a pice of her skull removed fighting for her life. The girl was charged as an accessory to attempted murder, rightfully so. She, the 13-year-old girl charged, according to the Sheriff's office, knew that Treacy intended to harm Ratley.
Hilda Gotay, Ratley's mother, received the news that her daughter was nearly beaten to death while standing at a bus stop outside of her middle school from police officers. Josie's aunt, Sarmiento, allegedly thought Treacy was a monster, that is until a news program on Thursday showed him [Treacy] with his mother crying. Sarmiento then said, "Last night I felt sorry for him..." Wow!
For anyone to plan out such a cruel act and then follow through with it is beyond comprehension, and to think that poor child, Josie Ratley, lay helpless on the ground while Treacy kicked and stomped her head with steel-toe boots leaves very little, if any, room for pity or sympathy for him. Did he at any point have any sympathy or human compassion for Ratley as he brutally beat her?
What is more disturbing is that reports say that witnesses said he kicked her repeatedly; that seems to indicate that these "witnesses" did nothing to stop him immediately after the first stomp or kick. On lookers may not have known he had on steel toed boots, but they certainly had to know that kicking and stomping someone in the head could cause severe damage. If they [witnesses] can say they saw him do it repeatedly they were standing by watching this vicious attack. How could anyone stand by and watch such a sickening assault without reacting?
Prosecutors and lawmakers have to do something to stop the teen violence because too many teens are committing crimes that are deadly. Just last October in Deerfield Beach, Florida five teens hunted down a 15-year-old boy, and lit him on fire. These evil minded teens are the future adults of our society, and that is really frightening.

Post a CommentAlthough Josie did not deserve this, she is also partially at fault here. If I were her, I wouldn't have liked her friend's relationship with Treacy either. First of all, he was two years older, and if they were adults, it wouldn't be a big deal, but they are CHILDREN. Also, he found his brother dead after he had comitted suicide, of course was emotionally unstable. But after she texted him saying that she didn't like their relationship, she should have left it at that. Saying that he should "go see his dead brother" was way out of line! She KNEW he was unstable, and what she said was intended to hurt him. I'm not condoning what he did, but she is not the only victim. And as for the friend who pointed her out, she probably didn't know that he planned to beat her. Who's to say that he didn't just say "Hey, where's Josie?" and she absentmindedly pointed her out. For all we know, she didn't even know that the two had talked before. And because she was Josie's alleged best friend, Treacy m
Don't be idiots. Pay attention when you read. He wasn't being a bully or just deciding he wanted to beat women, retards. He was getting revenge because she talked trash about his dead brother. She got what she deserved for saying the things she said, and don't hold anything against that 13 year old girl that pointed her out, if someone asked you, "Hey, where's so and so?" wouldn't you say "Right over there" instead of acting dumb? She didn't know what was going on, she needs to be left out of it.

And I hope his accomplice girl-friend stays in jail for a while just to make a point - we have all seen how brutal people are fueled by accomplices.
I edited my story a bit...
Dear fellow men, negative & sexual "construction-worker trash-talking" about women can have devastating affects on boys' perceptions. My father was not around while growing up. My only examples of older males were those who drank beer on Saturday nights, disgracing women, "jokingly". So in my little mind girls were not to be respected.
In 3rd grade I shoved a girl to the ground (hard) a few times because I was basically jealous of her. I wound up in the principal's office, and was angry because a "girl" had to go to a hospital because I sprained her ankle. I just wanted quick formal punishment so I could just get out and away from this "trivial" situation. But, the principal (male) got down at eye-level, placed his hands firmly on my shoulders and with a desperate, pleading look in his eyes he only said t

"but this is not tragic what seems to be left out are 2 very strong parts of the story: 1) the girl in question who received the beating was laughing/tormenting the best friend of "
Do you really have access to the text message? otherwise, you are only speculating because the article just said she made a "remark" and objected to his relationship with her friend.
First of all, if my younger (13 year) friend (who is tooo young to be dating in the first place) is dating someone who's brother just committed suicide, I'd would probably object to the relationship too. And he WAS crazy after all....Unfortunatly Josie was hurt instead while Josie was being protective of her friend (who may I add pointed Josie out). In my mind Josie is an Angel. And these are children and calling them trash is inappropriate.
I just got a strong craving for meatloaf...
All parties involved are trash and deserve whatever they get.
What a P.ussy that guy is! He looks like pure white trailer trash. His dad has been arrested 43 times in Florida and who knows what his mother is like. Like a bit bull that has attacked, he needs to be put down.
