Steubenville Football Coach Reno Saccoccia

Posted on by

As an educator teachers and staff are to present themselves in a professional manner.  They are to avoid any  “conduct unbecoming an educator.”  Reno Saccoccia made threats to a New York Times reporter when being interviewed.

From the New York Times:

Approached in November to be interviewed about the case, Saccoccia said he did not “do the Internet,” so he had not seen the comments and photographs posted online from that night. When asked again about the players involved and why he chose not to discipline them, he became agitated.

“You made me mad now,” he said, throwing in several expletives as he walked from the high school to his car.

Nearly nose to nose with a reporter, he growled: “You’re going to get yours. And if you don’t get yours, somebody close to you will.”

Shawn Crosier, the principal of Steubenville High, and Michael McVey, the superintendent of Steubenville schools, said they entrusted Saccoccia with determining whether any players should be disciplined for what they might have done or saw the night of Aug. 11. Neither Crosier nor McVey spoke to any students about the events of that summer night, they said, because they were satisfied that Saccoccia would handle it.

In an interview last month, Crosier maintained that he was not aware of what might have happened to the girl, even with all of the talk in the town, until three Big Red athletes testified in early October. At the same time, he said that he might have read the online petition that called for a public apology from the players and the team. He said that if he had, he had not thought much of it.

McVey said he was not aware of the team having any off-field issues before this one.

“You’re going to get yours. And if you don’t get yours, somebody close to you will.”   Coach Reno doesn’t have the integrity to remain head coach. It’s apparent now that there was a huge oversight on his part to discipline the players in question that night.  Even after hearing the sworn testimony of his football players regarding the night in question, Reno did nothing.  His lack of action speaks volumes for his lack of integrity and judgement and his threats to a reporter are give light to the type of person he is.

Coach Reno is  bound by the laws of the state of Ohio regarding educator conduct.  Anonymous citizen reports can be made by filling out the complaint form.

Where’s the Mayor?

28722903_4Since the inception of the Steubenville Facts website and the various press conferences and public statements about the world’s perception of the City of Murals, one person has been visually amiss.  One would think that the Mayor of a city who perceive they are under siege by the masses would be front and center to defend his fair town.  Perhaps Mayor Mucci has stayed out of the public eye because of his past.  As it turns out, he has three alcohol related offenses. On July 31, 2011 Domenick Mucci was charged with FIRST OFFENSE DUI and leaving the scene of an accident. He also refused to take the breathalyzer test.  According to the Wheeling Intelligencer, 54-year old Mucci hit two parked vehicles on Ridge Avenue in Steubenville, Ohio. The leaving the scene of an accident charge was amended to a second failure to control charge. Mucci entered no contest pleas to two charges of leaving the scene of an accident and was found guilty of those two charges by Municipal Court Judge Dan Spahn.

Dashcam video from one of the cruisers shows the mayor’s field sobriety test in its entirety. On one part of the video, an officer is heard saying, “Chief, it’s Bryan, sorry to bother you. You got a phone call yet? The mayor just wiped out some cars.” The officer then stated, “I’m going to take you down to the station.” The mayor sighed and said, “I’m sure the chief’s not going to be happy when he hears about this.”

On November 16, 1991 he was charged with DUI in Belmont County, Ohio and on March 9, 1996 he was charged with a second offense DUI and was sentenced to 10 days in jail and 1 year driver’s license suspension with work privileges.  Due to having no space in the county jail, Mucci did not have to serve his time.

According to the DUI laws in Ohio the amount of mandatory jail time and the length of the license suspension period increases for subsequent offenses.  When someone refuses to take the breath test it is an enhancement to the charge of DUI. Drivers who who are charged with a second DUI within 6 years, who refuse the breathalyzer test and who have one prior conviction for DUI within the past 20 years face:

  • Mandatory minimum of 20 days in jail
  • Minimum 1 year ALS with maximum 5 year court imposed driver’s license suspension
  • Fine between $525-$1625
  • Mandatory 90 day immobilization of vehicle used in commission of the DUI (if registered to the offender)
  • Mandatory 90 day vehicle license plate impoundment
  • Both special license plates and interlock required during any period of time that limited driving privileges are imposed.

Local news WTOV9.com  reported for the OVI, Mucci was sentenced to three days in jail; three days in a driver intervention program, which Mucci must pay for and is not permitted to leave; a fine of $375 plus court costs; an intensive, outpatient eight-week alcohol program through Trinity Health System; restitution to the owners of the vehicles that he hit, including their deductibles and whatever insurance won’t cover; suspension of his driver’s license for a year with limited driving during that suspension to go to work and City Council meetings; and probation for a year.

NEWS9 archives  indicate that this is at least the third time Mucci has been arrested for charges related to drunk driving. In 1996, the Ohio State Highway Patrol pulled Mucci over for suspicion of driving drunk. A judge later sentenced Mucci to 10 days in jail, because at the time it was his second offense.

Refusal to take the breath test should have increased the punishment for DUI.  Was the Mayor given special treatment?

 

The City of Steubenville Endorses Pornographer

The city administrators and those hoping to do damage control in the City of Steubenville have really shot themselves in the foot with their dedication “to control the rampant spread of rumors and inaccurate information about this case”.  Steubenville Facts has recently announced that they are linking other web sites who utilize publicly available facts to shed light on the rape case which has caused international outrage.  While they claim to be deferring all discussion of the evidence in this case to the litigants in the upcoming trial, they are giving the general public who reads their site the assumption that Lee Stranahan is an officially accredited and accepted voice for the City of Steubenville.  Note that Lee Stranahan is also a documented rape-fetish pornographer, who has used his blog to disseminate false information about individuals involved with the Occupy Steubenville movement.

Link NSFW!!

Nicole LamantiaIn another asshole move, the clowns of Steubenville have  risen up to reveal their own “OP” called “Op Taking Back the Ville”.  There is nothing to take back.  No one ever took your town.   Nicole Horner Lamantia upon direction of pornographer Lee Stranahan has appointed herself to be the town’s spokesperson.  Lamantia claims that her town has been bullied into silence.  No one has been bullied into silence.  If this were true please provide the names of those who are bullied into silence.  People showed up at their Stand Up for Steubenville rally.  Were those people bullied into silence as Lamantia claims?

Nicole Lamantia is the wife of Coach Lamantia and brother in law of Deputy Joe Lamantia.  Joe Lamantia is said to have harassed individuals at the Stand up for Steubenville rally by taking photographs of them while on duty and posting them on his Facebook page. Nicole Lamantia’s statement is offensive to every victim who has ever lived in Steubenville, Ohio.  Not once in her two minute overload of self-indulgent fuckery did she mention that a girl was raped by Big Red athletes.  The video is all about her town and Big Red and how she is a proud supporter and the innocent victims of her town.  She includes the term “innocent victims” of her town.  What about the young girl that was raped in her town?  Listen for yourself.  Nicole Lamantia is a piece of shit rape sympathizer.  Continue reading →

STEUBENVILLE – City Police Capt. Paul Harbert is being investigated by the department’s internal affairs division after he allegedly fired shots from an assault weapon into his personal vehicle in the basement garage of his house in the city’s West End.

City Law Director S. Gary Repella issued a statement Thursday that stated city officers on Jan. 31 responded to Harbert’s residence. He was transported to Trinity Medical Center West for a mental and physical problems. Repella said officers found evidence of several rounds of ammunition fired into Harbert’s vehicle in the garage.

Harbert was released from the hospital on Wednesday and is currently on sick leave, Repella said.

“When Capt. Harbert returns to active duty, he will be placed on administrative leave with pay and be ordered to submit to a fitness-for-duty evaluation by a trained health professional,” Repella said.

“The internal affairs division of the Steubenville Police Department is conducting an investigation regarding possible disciplinary charges. The evidence from a criminal investigation will be reviewed by a special prosecutor, who will make the final decision regarding any criminal activity,” Repella said.

NO charges filed against the captain?  Why not?

Big Red Suspension

That’s right!  Suspend the school from athletics for a year!  That will send a message to anyone who has even the fleeting moment of an idea to sexually assault anyone.  Suspension would put a stop to this predatory crap!  And that is what those boys are.  THey are predators!  They should punish every single kid who stood by and said or did nothing.  Punish the entire school and make an example out of them for condoning sexual assault.  That’s what the adults are doing here.  They are condoning sexual assault and underage drinking by standing by and doing nothing. Where was Mrs. Horwath while juveniles were drinking at her home?  Where was Matt Bellardine or his parents while juveniles were drinking at their home?  Why did Mrs. Horwath allow intoxicated juveniles to leave her home?  Oh that’s right.  A girl puked in her house and rather than make sure she didn’t have alcohol poisoning or was sick, instead she forced them to get the drunk girl out of her house.

In the recent case of Steubenville children who were allegedly “taped” into containers, four people were charged for this crime.  Two were charged because they committed the crime of child abuse, and the other two were charged because they observed the crime and did NOTHING.  This was based solely on witness testimony, yet in the rape case, two people allegedly raped a girl, while three people not only observed it but photographed it, video recorded it and disseminated the evidence via the internet.  The rule of law should be consistent, but apparently because of WHO the culprits are they have different rules.

Out of Character

People don’t assign blame for behavior when it concerns a Steubenville High School athlete, instead they label it as “out of character“.  Recently, Geno Atkins appeared on Dr. Phil with his mother, the screaming Jill Watkins to state that his friend, Trent Mays couldn’t have possibly raped a girl because it is just too “out of character” for him — even though Geno Atkins was nowhere near the parties that night and had no knowledge what happened.  What Geno has done is to victim blame.  Why believe the drunk girl?  His friend wouldn’t possibly do something like rape a girl because it is out of character.  Right?  And his mother certainly wouldn’t scream in a fit of anger on the Dr. Phil show that the victim might have lied!  Right?  As they say, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Geno isn’t the only one who tosses around the out of character excuse.  Jane Hanlin testified on behalf of Branko Busick,  a convicted former Steubenville High School wrestler.  Busick was charged with multiple felonies in West Virginia, and Hanlin testified on his behalf as a character witness. She claimed that she was testifying on his behalf because the convicted  felon robber was a friend of her son, Charlie who is another Steubenville High School wrestler and football player. She testified she knew the convicted robber well and that his actions were simply “out of character.”  She also testified that he had never been in trouble in her jurisdiction nor had his name come across her husband, Jason Hanlin’s desk.  It should be noted that Mr. Hanlin is a Steubenville Police Department narcotics officer and Jane Hanlin is the Jefferson County Prosecutor.  Hanlin used her position to benefit a private citizen, as well as using the position of her detective husband to do so.

You’re all out of character and doing nothing to make people think any different of your town.

Masks became the topic of discussion at a recent Steubenville City Council meeting that occurred on Tuesday night.   Present at the Council  meeting and not wishing to use his full name but to remain ANONYMOUS, “Richard” protested the use of masks at the protests which have recently taken place in his town.  Anonymous Richard told Council  he did not want to use his last name “because I know what those Anonymous people can do.”

“Can anything be done about our town being invaded by these people. Other states and cities have laws against wearing masks. If we came up with a city code against wearing masks maybe we would get rid of the riffraff. I was born here and I don’t like what I am seeing and hearing about my town. I don’t want to see my tax dollars spent on security for these rallies,” said Richard.  (Herald Star)

Anonymous Richard referred to the fine, upstanding citizens of Steubenville who attended the protest to support the Jane Doe rape victim as “riffraff”.  What is ironic is that Richard wanted to remain anonymous just as those who attended the rally  wished to remain anonymous in their support for the victim.  They wore their masks for a reason because they feared backlash from those who support the rapists.  To Richard — Pot meet kettle.
