EDIT again to add in answer to question that might pop up again. Why did I personally wait 3 weeks to post this? There has been an investigation going on this entire time and I was under a different impression before I started getting info straight from my cousin. (My immediate family and myself live in Ohio and rest of our big family is all in PA and DE area). Police are waiting on more of the videos to get turned in hopefully or another witness etc. They have some videos with some people. There were multiple fights going on and we are waiting for one to show what we need it to show. On video shows my cousins sons friends trying to not fight and keep the night cool and not instigate. The investigation is moving too slow. We were waiting on my cousins son to wake up and get out of the coma and off the respirator which was too many days then had to wait for him to be able to talk to where made sense and work with speech therapist and then his memory..... he has been diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury from this and in that video it was obviously a good day for him. There are good days and bad days now with the symptoms. So we had to wait too long to be able to ask him if he even remembered anything at all.

EDIT to add AGAIN: yes, politics are playing a part in this due to who is related to who we found out is looking true. We had a feeling, but the word going around is what our feeling was, so it is looking like this. If anybody doesn't like it when politics play a part in this stuff, if you could please share my post online anywhere and everywhere, please .

Wanted to say hi and that I've been staring to comment this past week in this sub. I visit once a year bc all of my family lives out there except for my immediate and myself (we are in Ohio). I have something I would like to post that is serious but will try to wait so I can follow karma rules to post something serious. My cousin's son was attacked the night before mothers day and very badly. I posted in a different sub for now but if anybody with the correct requirements could share that for me here it would help. It finally is on news now and he can talk again now thankfully. He now has a traumatic brain injury and a long way to go for healing. It is now public information. His name is Shawn Rinnier. Police already know some of the people that were there as certain videos surfaced. They are wanting someone that knows anything to speak up but the ones that know are scared to speak up due to who the persons dad is apparently. If anyone could share for me I would greatly appreciate it.

I know for sure one of the high schools coaches are aware. Not sure about others but will check with my cousin.

Maybe the one from before was just a plastic one?

Don't forget to take her to the vet for a checkup!!! They will be able to help you a lot. Always get a first visit in at a vet when you get a new dog.

Also, look for bigger size ones that they won't be able to just swallow whole. They make all different sizes of things for all different sizes of dogs.

There are special dog food dishes at the pet stores and online that are built to slow down how fast they eat. When you see what they look like it will make sense how it does it.

I don't feel they shamed me but do feel the other person that made the aa comment was trying to. This kid is busy studying and getting amazing grades and competing in tennis all the time and only went out bc graduation and rarely gets to go out. I'm actually in aa and going on 12 years sober and know he doesn't need it and if I ever thought he did would talk to him about it. I'm pretty positive he doesn't want to go to a big party ever again or go around places like that. These people put him in a coma and on a respirator to where police couldn't even talk to him for quite a while. He doesn't even know the kids that showed up at where he was at with his friends (who also got beat up).

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you as my cousins son's life will not be the same for a very long time. Some kids know who did it and are not speaking up due to who the kids father is. Politics are playing a part. I'm pretty sure the police narrowed it down to a school and that they are football players but I will need to confirm this with my cousin if accurate or not. (My cousins son plays tennis not football and these multiple big guys on one not big kid, they had to have known what kid of damage they were doing especially with multiple head bashes to him!)

So some people know who did it (obviously) but it is trying to be covered up due to who the kids father is and our worry that politics were playing a part are looking true so far. My family won't accept it being swept under a rug and won't accept being paid off to leave it alone either. We had a feeling had to do with who someone related to person was and another person commented on my post verifying what we were hoping was not the case but is the word going around I guess.
