The father of a teenager killed with a baseball bat said the 13-year-old alleged perpetrator should be punished but, “We don’t want to see him lose the rest of his life.”
In a “Today” Show interview on Friday, Brian Rourke and his wife Angela told anchor Matt Lauer, “We feel that there’s got to be some kind of punishment for the act.”
The teen attacker, whom Angela Rourke described as “a pretty quiet boy…but very competitive” was charged Thursday with murder for allegedly clubbing Jeremy Rourke, 15, with a baseball bat, moments after Rourke apparently teased him following his team’s first loss of the season on Tuesday. 
“I don’t think that anyone rational should ever act that way,” said Angela Rourke, wearing a white T-shirt with Jeremy’s picture on the front. 
“We know it was not a spur of the moment thing,” Brian Rourke added. “From what it was described to me, it was more of an act that took extra thought to happen.”
Arrested
The attacker, whose name was not released, was arrested Wednesday. The accused youth will be tried as a juvenile because no one under 14 can be tried as an adult in California, said Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Ron Smalstig. His name was not released because of his age. He remained in custody and was scheduled to make his first court appearance Friday.
If a judge finds the allegations are true, the boy could face a sentence ranging from probation to state custody until he’s 25, said District Attorney spokeswoman Jane Robison.
Robison declined to say what might have prompted the attack or to provide details about the allegations. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, which investigated the incident, also declined comment.
The boys had no history of fighting, said Tony Trevino, coach of the Dodgers, which had just defeated the suspect’s team, the Angels, when the clubbing took place.
“That’s what’s so shocking and so appalling,” he said. “What happened? What did we miss as a community? What did we miss as parents?”
‘Not a monster’
At the playing field Wednesday night, a family friend read a statement from Rourke’s parents, who urged people not to demonize their son’s attacker.
He “is not a monster. He’s a good boy who made a bad mistake. This is a mistake that will haunt both families for the rest of our lives,” the statement said.
The suspect was the starting pitcher when his team was beaten for the first time in eight games by the Dodgers, a team that went into the game with a 1-6 record.
Deputies declined to provide further details of the attack. It occurred during a regular weekday night game that attracts both children and their parents in this community of 116,000.
Ryan Gosporra, 15, said the incident began when Rourke cut in front of the suspect in the snack bar line. Neither he nor Trevino saw the attack that occurred after the last game of the night with about 40 people at the field.
But Trevino, 50, said witnesses told him the two boys teased each other before the suspect pulled a bat from his bag and hit Rourke in the knees, then the head.
Play suspended
After the attack, Trevino saw the suspect standing against a fence with his parents. “He looked scared. He was in shock,” the coach said.
League officials said play would be suspended at the field for several days.
“We’re really in a state of shock over this whole thing,” league President Ken Curtis said. Rourke’s father is a past president of the league.
A memorial was held at Highland High School, where Rourke attended classes. Students shared memories, and a bundle of pink and black balloons was released in honor of Rourke.
“He’s just a funny kid. He liked to make people smile,” Gosporra said. “You could be in the worst mood, and he would make you laugh.”

Study Shows LGB Teens, Particularly Girls, Punished More for Same Behavior as Straight Teens
Dec. 6, 2010 -- Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) teens and young adults -- particularly females -- are more often punished by school and criminal authorities than are straight youths, a new study suggests.
The increased punishment can't be explained by more rule-breaking or law-breaking behavior, find Yale researchers Kathryn Himmelstein and Hanna Bruckner.
"LGB kids are being punished more often than heterosexual kids by police, courts, and school officials -- and that is not because they are misbehaving more," Himmelstein tells WebMD. "We controlled for what kids were doing to elicit punishment, and we found that LGB youth were excessively punished."
Himmelstein and Bruckner analyzed data from a nationally representative sample of teens in grades 7 through 12 in 1994 to 1995. More than 15,000 participants were interviewed again in 2001-2002, when they were 18 to 26 years old.
The youths were asked whether they were ever expelled from school, stopped by police, arrested before or after turning 18, or convicted in juvenile or adult court. They answered a battery of questions about their own rule- and law-breaking behavior.
They also were asked whether they were attracted to members of the same sex, whether they had a same-sex relationship, and whether they identified themselves as anything other than 100% heterosexual (in which case they were counted as LGB).
The result: Overall, non-heterosexual teens were between 25% and 300% more likely than their heterosexual peers to have experienced punishment.
"The differences are most striking for non-heterosexual girls, who are about two to three times more likely to be punished," Himmelstein says. "We don't have a clear idea of why, but the juvenile justice system has historically played a role in policing girls' sexuality."
"This study adds to our understanding of the increased risks to their health and well-being that LGB youths face," Tumaini Coker, MD, assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of California, Los Angeles, tells WebMD. Coker has studied the special health challenges of LGB teens. She was not involved in the Himmelstein study.
LGB health researcher Caitlin Ryan, PhD, LCSW, director of the Family Acceptance Project at San Francisco State University, notes that the Himmelstein study mixes together youths who are questioning their sexuality with those who are fully LGB-identified.
"Probably what is happening in this study is they pick up young people who are experienced as different from others, and that may be because of their gender nonconforming behaviors," Ryan tells WebMD. "One way a person responds to that is by acting out. This may bring that child to the attention of authorities."
Harassment by schoolmates and being singled out for punishment by school authorities can have powerful harmful effects on LGB youths' future health, Coker notes. But in a series of new studies, Ryan finds that the biggest health issues for LGB teens lie inside their families.
For nearly a decade, Ryan's Family Acceptance Project has been conducting extensive interviews with the entire families of ethnically diverse LGB youth and their families. They identified more than 100 ways in which families express acceptance or rejection of an LGB family member.
Regardless of how it is expressed, family acceptance and rejection each have powerful effects on an LGB youth's health.
"In our [2009] paper we looked at specific rejecting behaviors and got dramatic findings," Ryan says. "With high family rejection the teens were more than eight times more likely to try suicide, six times more likely to be depressed, and more than three times more likely to use illegal drugs or to put themselves at risk of HIV infection."
But rejection isn't a family's only reaction to an LGB teen. In a new study, Ryan and colleagues find that family acceptance during the teen years protects LGB youth against suicide, depression, and substance abuse and gives youths' significantly higher levels of self-esteem, social support, and general health.
Perhaps the best news is that supportive families don't always start out that way. Even families initially hostile to homosexuality due to religious beliefs or prejudice can become supportive of their LGB loved ones.
"The moral is that families can grow and change and can support LGB youth and can integrate this with their faith," Ryan says. "We work with families of all traditions. Underneath all these attitudes toward nonconforming sexual identity, they love their children and want them to have a good life. Our aim is not to make them do anything against their beliefs, but to do things for their family to protect their child's health."
In consultation with the families they studied, the Family Acceptance Project has developed educational brochures, videos, and other materials for other families. These materials are freely available at the familyproject.sfsu.edu web site.
The Himmelstein study appears in the January 2011 issue of Pediatrics. The Ryan study appears in the November issue of the Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Nursing.
