Publish the facts, get to problem

 

 

Glendale has had a problem with hatred, racism and teen violence for as long as I

can remember.

First off, for years, Armenians and Latino's don't like each other very much, but

everybody in Glendale thinks everything will work itself out. I don't think so. The

stabbing of Raul Aguirre on May 5, only made matters harder to deal with!

I believe in my heart, the press should print the facts -- what really happens here in

Glendale -- because it bothers me when I read something and I feel I been lied to.

Because how do you handle problems, put them on the table and deal with them. Don't

fix something by sweeping everything under the rug!

Arraignment delayed for Aguirre suspects

 

By AMBER WILLARD

 

 

GLENDALE COURTHOUSE -- The arraignment Thursday afternoon for three

youths accused of killing Hoover High School student Raul Aguirre was delayed until

August.

Court Commissioner Daniel F. Calabro delayed the arraignment at the request of

attorneys for the suspects -- Karen Terteryan, 17; Rafael Gevorgyan, 15; and Anait

Ano Msryan, 14.

The three, brought into the courtroom wearing orange jumpsuits, are charged with

one count each of murder, attempted murder and street terrorism. A special

circumstance of murder by a street gang could mean that if convicted, the youths could

receive life sentences without parole.

Aguirre's mother and sister were in court for the arraignment.

Aguirre, 17, who was not a gang member, was killed May 5 in front of Hoover High

School when he tried to break up a fight between Latino and Armenians gang

members, police said.

Prosecutors have said Gevorgyan hit Aguirre with a crowbar and that Terteryan

stabbed him four times.

Police have said Msryan was driving the car that the three used to flee the fight

scene. She is the youngest female in Glendale history to be charged with murder, police

said.
