Toolbox

Published: December 22, 2009

A Proctor teenager charged with doing almost $2,000 of damage to a car in the Mill River Union High School parking lot answered to a pair of charges in Rutland District Court Monday.

Joshua S. Miles, 18, pleaded innocent to a felony charge of unlawful mischief and a misdemeanor charge of petty larceny.

Police say after leaving a homecoming dance at the school on Oct. 2, Miles slashed all four tires on a Toyota Camry parked outside the school. Police say Miles told them he also took a backpack of school books from the car. He told police he threw the backpack in a river in Proctor. An estimate of the damage to the car and the loss of the backpack and its contents amounted to about $2,200.

I'm confused. He confessed to these crimes. And will be tried in court for them.

But now someone is on here saying the data is incorrect? Without elaborating?

Who are we supposed to believe? The paper. Or someone saying, "It's all lies", without giving any information to back up their belief?


That would be like saying, "I have a dream". And then walk off stage without sharing your dream. What's the point?

Someone does $2,000 worth of damage? If that part of this story is true then the person who did the damage is in the "merciless", "meanie" and so forth, category. If the name is incorrect then it's not him but another individual the names attach to. It shouldn't matter if it is in the nature of retaliation, a person should know better.

I think little punk might be the correct verbage. He and his brothers have caused other damange in Proctor, yet they have only received a slap on the wrist, or please do not do that again. Yes, I believe punk clearly fits.

I can't believe what people say on these posts! I have contacted the herald about all of this. It is one thing to comment on a story but it is another to call a person names like Dwayne Johnson and True Vermonter are doing. Maybe these people should get a life and a job and stop spending all day posting rude things about other people. GROW UP!!

Yeah I know too but it is incorrect. There's actually more that he did that night that they didn't put in. But I can't spill it, though! What shame!

Wow I love that this paper can't get anything right. This information isn't even accurate, so yes. Let's wait until the whole story comes out before everyone starts saying anything about him.
