Two Homer brothers have pleaded guilty to harassing a 17-year-old boy passed out at a party in September 2012.
The Homer News (http://bit.ly/1wNEuSx) reports 22-year-old Anthony Resetarits and 20-year-old Joseph Resetarits entered pleas Thursday.
Anthony Resetarits also pleaded guilty to evidence tampering, hindering prosecution and contributing to the delinquency of his younger brother.
He was sentenced to 120 hours of community work service, 40 months of probation and 70 days of jail.
Joseph Resetarits was sentenced to 80 hours of community service and five months of probation.
Prosecutor Paul Miovas says people attending the party wrote on the victim with markers and the harassment escalated to shaving his eyebrows and head, pulling down his clothes and sexually assaulting him.
Anthony Resetarits’ attorney says allegations of sexual offenses were untrue.
