Boys in Twin Falls sex case released
The 14- and 10-year-old boys charged in a sexual assault at Fawnbrook Apartments have been released from juvenile custody, and federal prosecutors are urging the community to stay calm, stop spreading falsehoods about the case and let investigators and court officials do their jobs.
“The United States Attorney’s Office extends its support to the 5-year-old victim of assault, and her family, at the Fawnbrook Apartments in Twin Falls,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a statement released Friday. “The United States Attorney’s Office further encourages community members in Twin Falls and throughout Idaho to remain calm and supportive, to pay close attention to the facts that have been released by law enforcement and the prosecuting attorney, and to avoid spreading false rumors and inaccuracies.”
