Teens arrested after posting YouTube video of beating 13-year-old boy and hanging him from a tree

BY Sean Alfano
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

A 13-year-old Pennsylvania boy is lucky to be alive after a group of bullies allegedly took turns kicking and punching him before hanging the teen upside down from a tree.

Six boys accused of the vicious attack were dragged out of Upper Darby High School in handcuffs on Monday, charged with kidnapping and assaulting Nadin Khoury.

The bullies posted the sickening incident on YouTube.

"I was scared and angry, all at the same time," Khoury told Fox News of the January 11 beating on his way home from school.

1. They posted it on YouTube!

Clearly the boys were not aware of what they were doing, and it was the influence of posting soemthing"cool" on YouTube.

Maybe they should post the boys getting arrested on YouTube.

4. Well, there's one good thing about the technological age...

It helps in the arrest, prosecution, and conviction of stupidass criminals.

Seriously.

They don't have to go to all the trouble of leaving footprints or fingerprints or other evidence.

They can do their crimes and breeze right through the judicial system through their own egotistical idiocy.

6. They have not invented a word in the English language

to describe what I'd love to do with these thugs, a room with no windows, a half-hour, and a basketful of slugs.

7. Let me tell you "what now"

I'm gonna call a couple of hard, pipe-hitting n****s to go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talking, hillbilly boy?! I ain't through with you by a damn sight! I'm gonna get medieval on your ass! :evilgrin:
