Seven Marysville boys face felony sex charges

Police in Marysville say the assault on a 13-year-old girl
on a school bus was a sex crime.

An investigation concludes the March 1 assault was
sexually motivated and detectives are recommending that
seven boys, ages 11 to 15, be charged with the felony
crime of indecent liberties in juvenile court.

The Everett Herald reports four of
the
boys were expelled from
school and three others were suspended for the remainder
of
the school year. All were students from Marysville Middle
School.

Surveillance cameras on the school bus supposedly recorded
some
of
what happened, but the school district has not released
that
video to the public, citing privacy rights.
