No charges against son who attacked would-be rapist of mom
Feb 08
2012
A prosecutor has declined to file charges against a teenage boy who came to the aid of his mother, an attempted rape victim.
"It's a pending investigation. I've received reports, recordings and other documentation and based on my review of the evidence at this time, I have decided not to file delinquency charges against the juvenile," Huron County Assistant Prosecutor Jennifer DeLand said Monday.
The attempted rape happened at a rural Wakeman home in the early morning hours of Jan. 25. A dispatcher with the Huron County Sheriff's Office received a 9-1-1 call at 3:43 a.m. -- an emergency call that lasted about 15 minutes with no one picking up the other line.
Nathan L. Hindle, 31, of 4674 Wenz Road, Wakeman, was arrested Jan. 30 in Norwalk on an attempted rape warrant. If convicted of the second-degree felony, Hindle faces two to eight years in prison and a maximum fine of $15,000.
DeLand declined to go into the specifics of the case.
Capt. Ted Patrick has said the victim's 14-year-old son came to his mother's aid and tried to non-violently intervene, but when that didn't work, he picked up a 6-inch knife and stabbed Hindle three times in the back. Published reports indicate that Hindle, the woman's boyfriend of 12 years, is accused of taking the 33-year-old woman to the ground in the living room, choking her and ripping her clothes.
"He was simply going to the defense of his mother and trying to intervene without any weapon and that didn't work," Patrick said soon after Hindle was arrested.
An ambulance transported Hindle to Fisher-Titus Medical Center, where he was treated and later released.
When the 9-1-1 call came in, there was nobody on the other end of the line, but a man, believed to be Hindle, is heard cursing.
"Hello? Do you need an ambulance?," the dispatcher asked. "Do you need an officer?"
About 3 1/2 minutes into the call, the dispatcher told a deputy it sounded as if Hindle was "advising a female she's not nice to him and (doesn't) take care of him." About one minute later, the dispatcher said the two people's "voices are raised now."
"She's yelling for him to stop," the dispatcher said later, referring to the victim. "She's advising for him to get off her."
By the fifth time the woman is heard telling Hindle to "stop," she says it much louder and seems to be screaming. Each time, the man identified as Hindle said: "Or what?"
It's unknown what caused the argument.
Hindle remains in custody at the Huron County Jail, unable to post a $50,000 bond.
He's prohibited from having direct or indirect association or communication with the victim or anyone under the age of 18 if he posts bail.

well obviously your friends with nate if you are talking like that.. she is not a waste of skin, she is a stay at home mom raising HIS kids! Am I correct?? yes I am!! No means No still even if you are in a 12 year relationship. I know Nate & he gets drunk & can get scary so dont turn this around on the victim. & yeah she should of left him when he knocked someone else up but she is a good woman who stood by him even when she shouldn't have. So what is wrong w/ you people that are turning the blame towards her?? Nate needs to quit drinking & concentrate on getting this life straightened out..or he will lose those kids too. I wouldn't want much to do with my father if I witnessed him treating my mother so poorly10:45 PM

If u only knew! dont know her family well but nates parents are the nicest sweetest ppl! His sister too!07:58 PM
reeeaaalllyyy says
I don't know either of them ... I'm not sure it's as much a matter of personal character as it is a matter of circumstance . Dosen't seem to me that he's done what he's been accused of. Not that he didn't get carried away. If she really bolted off to KY .... well that just speaks for it's self .09:11 PM
LookingDown says
Oh yeah.....the car that he bought and owns was taken to ky.......I'd report it stolen! But I'm a biatchh......i know wat too much of this story from both sides! If she was smart she would have left when he knotted some other chick up least year! But if you stay and put up with that, that on you! Don't cry rape when he leaves you! Just saying!09:14 PM
LookingDown says
Or call the mother if your kids names......no one right here! Just got blown way out if control. Hopefully the truth does come out! Nate u got work ahead of you to get those kids in your lives with out bringing her hillbilly butt back to ohio!06:24 PM

If the dispatcher could hear the conversation & Nate saying "or what" each time after she told him to STOP, then she is not making it up. I know both of them really well & I know you can say what you want about the victim, but she is a good girl & Mom & should of left Nate years ago when he didn't treat her good. Nate drinks too much & expects her to put up with that, then goes home & treats her poorly & thinks she should have sex with him. Im glad she said NO & refused to let him have her way with him. No man should go out do what he wants, get wasted, come home treat the mother of his children that way. I dont want to see anything bad happen to either one but to turn the blame around on the female is just plain wrong!! Im glad her son was there to protect her, Nate needs put in his place!!07:37 PM

@ REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY-Said in the last article he was arrested on the 25th.05:41 PM
LookingDown says
Atleast read the article...than comment dumb$hit02:21 PM
reeeaaalllyyy says
It's in the article above ! Black and white clear as crystal ! Arrested on the 30th ! 4th paragraph !02:41 PM
Uputwhatwhere6 says
Yes, so which is correct? They are both crystal clear and in black and white. The first article states the rape warrant was issued on the 25th and arrested on the 25th. The second article states he was arrested on the 30th. Your made up story? Who to believe, who to believe?03:05 PM
reeeaaalllyyy says
Look again ! The first article says no such thing ! Are U so sadistic that you would send someone to prison for an accusation as serious as attemted rape without solid proof ? The dude was let out of the hospital into society ... means no accusations were in place at the time ? I don't think he acted as he should have . I just don't see it as a rape attempt !03:07 PM

You can't just make this crap up as u go to get your way !03:50 PM

Police arrested him at a Jacquie Lane residence Norwalk on an attempted rape warrant, which was issued on Jan. 25 through Norwalk Municipal Court. He was taken to the Huron County Jail, where an officer said Hindle's condition was good. Look again stupid. It's in the very first link. Hard being so dumb?04:08 PM
reeeaaalllyyy says
He was arrested the 30th . Enough with your pettie bickering . Name calling ? What your like 10 years old or just haven't developed since then ? Nothing you've stated answers the question . How was he released from the hospital if there were attempted rape accusations ? Where in your quote is it stated that Hindle was arested the 25th ? Cause that was your claim just 2 postings back .04:22 PM
Uputwhatwhere6 says
OMG? Are you really that blind? Name calling because I get tired of morons that can't read or spell. I'm done responding to you. Try reading Veeeerrrryyy slowly. All the answers are there that say he was arrested on the 25th for a rape warrant issued on the 25th. S L O W L Y.04:30 PM

ALOT more to the story for sure.. time it will all unravel, n as far as the kid being charged. things can change, but as far as now they had to..being this story has gone national. Watched it last week on a local North Carolina channel. I just hope (sarcastic) little town Wakeman, the women and kid gets there ducks in a row. Once a story goes national.. people will be watching and savvy lawyers, looking for a name, will be coming out of the woodwork.05:37 PM

Each time the story is told there's just more in place to hang this dude . If it's all matter of fact why wasen't it all printed to begin with. Still begs the question ... if there were accusations of rape to begin with how was he released from the hospital into scociety ? Somethin dosen't quite fit here ! I think he was tring to leave ... she wasen't havin it, then got between him & the door. She says stop he says or what. Argument goes down to the floor becomes a fight . Kid gets scared and tries to help mom ( with a knife ) Since dude was leavin anyhow moma's gotta protect baby . Cries rape 2 weeks later ( just after dude gets out of the hospital ?) To cover the kids tracks . That's how I see it sure diden't sound like rape on the recording !04:38 PM

So ... how was he let out of the hospital into the comunity with attemted rape accusations in place ???????????? There were none at the time ? How conveniant .01:18 PM
Uputwhatwhere6 says
Stabbed, treated, released and arrested all the same day within a matter of hours. Sounds like an issue with law enforcement not making it clear he was under arrest. Look at the time frame.05:35 PM

Love it when ppl talk crap just cus some stupid girl called rape! I truly feel bad for someone if it was true! anyone who knows her hillbilly ass (which many do not as she from KY) but she its a piece of crap....no job but youngest ben in school for at least 3 years, nate being the man he is trying to pay bills and her spending money liked it grows on trees! No he should'nt be spending money on beer....but I would get drunk everyday if I had to go home to that! I for one wouldn't wait 5 days to press charges on someone that I said raped me! And no she want scared just a stupid --- !02:02 PM

Everything except the arrest happened on the 25th ... he was arrested on the 30th ... took her 5 days to cry rape ? Delayed reaction , or what ? Incident 25th... Arrest 30th ! The article states exactly that above !
