4th Latin King Goonie Walks In Brutal Bronx Gay Bashing

Dennis Piters, 17, is the fourth suspected Latin King Goonie to be set free after three weeks in jail. Prosecutors dropped charges, telling a judge they don’t have “sufficient evidence to prove a case beyond a reasonable doubt” that he was involved in the Bronx gay bashing. Responded Piters’ attorney: “He did not take part in it. He’s not a homophobe, he’s not anti gay. He happened to be buddies with a couple of guys who — well, we’ll see what the grand jury says about them.” [NYP]
