Law and Order: Le Roy man accused of offering cigarettes for sex with a teen

By Howard B. Owens

Thomas J. Hutton, 28, 9624 Clipnock Road, Stafford, is charged with forcible touching and endangering the welfare of a child. Hutton is accused of forcibly touching/grabbing the intimate parts of a person under age 17 in October. In a separate incident, Hutton is accused of offering cigarettes to a child under 17 in exchange for a sexual act. Following arraignment, Hutton was placed under the supervision of Genesee Justice.

Carrie Quashaye Blunt, 19, of Batavia Stafford Townline Road, Batavia, is charged with petit larceny and unlawful possession of marijuana. Blunt is accused of shoplifting from Walmart. Blunt was taken into custody following an alleged verbal confrontation with a store employee. During the investigation, Blunt was allegedly found to have marijuana concealed in her purse.

There's a brain surgeon in the making! Put the pot in the purse and carry it around (just in case you wanna smoke a BLUNT..nyuk nyuk), shoplift and then argue with the store employee nabbing you for shoplifting. At least she didn't punch the employee in the face.

I was making light of the irony of her last name and the fact that she got caught with pot. The real issue is another shoplifter at WalMart becoming confrontational with an employee.

Bob, do I need to explain again how bail works? Bail can only be used to assure appearance at the next court date. It can't be used just to hold a person, especially since there is no proof the person actually committed the crime.

Howard, I understand the concept and implementation of bail.

"Following arraignment, Hutton was placed under the supervision of Genesee Justice."

There is no mention of bail in your article. The way it is written infers an O.R. with supervision.

Same legal rules and concepts apply. You can't lock somebody up accused of the crime just because the crime creeps you out. The defendant still hasn't been convicted, so can't be punished. Remember, innocent until proven guilty.
