[QUOTE="faulkton, post: 2270744, member: 561910"] Bathroom attacker had bullied victim BY ANDREW STRICKLER Newsday Staff Writer October 19, 2006, 9:07 PM EDT [URL="http://imageshack.us"][IMG]http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/3596/2fe3.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL="http://imageshack.us"][IMG]http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/6675/1ve1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] One of two teenagers accused of a horrific ****** assault on a developmentally disabled man in a bowling alley bathroom in Shirley had a history of picking on his victim going back years to when both were treated at a Long Island psychiatric center, police said Thursday. Steven Rodriguez, 19, of Shirley, knew the 21-year-old victim when they were patients at the Sagamore Children's Psychiatric Center, a state-run facility in Dix Hills, and Rodriguez was known to have picked on the victim during that time, authorities said. Suffolk Det. Lt. Gerard Gigante said Thursday that the assault may have occurred after Rodriguez learned that the victim spoke recently about Rodriguez' time at Sagamore. "It appears ... that the victim had mentioned it, and Rodriguez didn't like that people knew that he'd been in the facility," Gigante said. Gigante said Rodriguez was at Sagamore because he was "a troubled child." He said Rodriguez was treated at the facility for as long as two years but did not offer a specific time-frame. Citing patient confidentiality, Sagamore director Dennis Dubey declined to comment Thursday. The bowling alley attack, police said, occurred after Rodriguez taunted the victim outside AMF Shirley Lanes on the Greens in Shirley on Sunday evening. The victim entered the bowling alley and was followed into the bathroom by Rodriguez and another youth, Michael Lunsford, 17, of Shirley.
