Four men have been arrested on manslaughter and false imprisonment charges in connection with the death. Cops say Bravo was restrained in a room with another man who went through the same treatment and survived. "My basic understanding, said a police spokesman, "is that these defendants were not letting these guys leave and were feeding them nothing but alcohol. The idea was that the guy would later hate alcohol so much he wouldn't drink anymore," The suspects were either workers or volunteers at the "clinic," some of whom had been through the program. Alberto Saguache, 38, was charged with involuntary manslaughter. He was being held in lieu of $70,000 bail. The IDs of the other perps were not available. Cops said the clinic was operating without a license. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * NEW YORK -- Seven Staten Island teens stand accused of gang-raping a 15-year-old New Jersey girl after luring her to a motel room, where they boozed her up and took pictures of the festivities. The Fine Young Lads, aged 16 to 18, assaulted the girl after meeting her and a friend on the boardwalk that lines Wildwood Island, about 45 miles south of Atlantic City. The girls were on a school trip and had been stay- ing on the island for the weekend. Apparently, they'd decided to sneak away from the school group and were convinced by the boys to return to their room. Oops. ObHappyCoincience: The fun took place in the very same motel room in which a group of Gloucester Coun- ty teens handcuffed, raped and photgraphed a 19-year- old woman from Jersey in May '97.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, and cops are asking anyone who may have seen a late-model red Chevy Blazer in the area to call them. Witnesses said the vitim are perp were arguing when the man opened fire on her with a .45-caliber handgun, un- loading at least 15 shots. The man then grabbed the wo- man's two children and sped off, leaving more two todd- lers she was babysitting alone in the parking lot with her body. Cheers!

Each time, he was warned to stay in line. Instead, he went on to slash tires, threaten a security guard with a shank, burglarize a home and beat up his pet dog. Along the way, our Hero dropped out of HS and started do- ing dope. Then, last month, he walked away from a half- way house. On Saturday night, Bobby, now 16, allegedly took it to a whole 'nother level. While crusing through Phoenix neigh- borhood, armed with a sawed-off shotgun, he opened fire on a group of teens headed to a pizza parlor, killing two honor students. He now faces his first adult criminal charges --14 of 'em -- ranging from murder one, attempted murder one, agg ass- ault and misconduct with weapons. ObDirtyDetails: Purcell was apparently riding with two other teens when he passed the group headed to the pizza joint. Two of his homeys inside the car flashed gang signs, but the group of teens didn't recognize the signs and waved at the car. Oops. According to cops, Purcell was quoted as saying, simply, "We weren't respected." He faces the Magic Needle if con- victed.

The charges stem from the death of Tharp's daughter, 7- year-old Tausha, whose emaciated, 12-pound body was found wrapped in a sheet inside garbage bags just off a country road. Tausha became the subject of a massive search after Tharp and Bittinger told cops that she had disappeared or been abducted while they shopped. But after police questioned them further, Bittinger changed his story and told 'em he had struck Tausha when she cried and refused to go to bed. In her statement, Tharp said she found her daughter lying sideways and motionless on her bed "with foamy stuff coming out of her mouth" when she went in to awaken her the next morning. She and Bittinger dis- cussed taking Tausha to a hospital, but did not do so because she feared that authorities would seize her other two daughters and her infant son. The couple instead put Tausha in her car seat, then, accompanied by their infant son, Douglas Jr. and daughter, Ashley, 3 -- drove around. After purchas- ing plastic trash bags at a convenience store, Bittin- ger wrapped Tausha's body in a sheet and slipped it into a bag. The couple left her under a bush and drove away. After an autopsy and other tests, M.E. James Frost de- termined that Tausha had died of "severe malnutrition due to starvation" and ruled her death a homicide. After Tausha's death, neighbors and relatives gave state- ments in which they contended that she had been beat- en, starved and abused before she died. According to one witness, the starving girl resorted to stealing kibble from the bowls of her family's pets. When she got caught with handfuls or mouthfuls of dog or cat chow, she was slapped or struck with a long-handled spoon. When the blows made her cry, she was barricaded in a tiny alcove off the kitchen or locked in her bedroom. Tharp's other children, btw, were "well-fed, well-tended and energetic." * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * And finally: DALLAS -- An unIDed 17-year-old varsity wrestler on trial for an eye-gouging attack that nearly blinded an- other teen has pleaded guilty to assault and will be sent to a military school until his next birthday.

Jurors had been deadlocked on the agg assault charge since deliberations began. Prickett told jurors he went to a fight between two boys that was attended by members of two rival groups. Prickett said he hit another teen who tried to assist one of the fighters and was then attacked. "He said, 'Remember my name.

The official charge is sexual assault on a horse -- a misdemeanor. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * AMSTERDAM -- A children's rights group has led police to an international child pornography ring that distributed pictures of drugged, abused and raped babies on the 'net. Cops found more than 9,000 pictures of children between the ages of 12 and 24 months when they raided a home in Zandvoort. The home belonged to a suspected member of the porno ring, who was recently murdered in Italy (apparently by an accomplice when he tried to resign). The ring has suspected links in the U.S., Russia and Israel. Psychologist Wim Wolters, a specialist in cases of child abuse, told reporters, "In all of my professio- nal life, I had not seen more shocking images." * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * And finally -- from the 'Hell Freezes Over' file: ENGLEWOOD -- A summer vacation game for 9-yr- old Jacob Nerud and his 8-year-old sister, Jordan, ended in tragedy when they apparently locked them- selves in an unplugged freezer in their family home and perished. Cops were called after a teenage babysitter found the children in the freezer in the basement of the home. "They had been playing in the basement, and the ba- bysitter was looking forthem,'' said police spokesman Jim Ulrich. "They were found locked inside due to a latch that could only be opened from the outside. They were not breathing.'' "Firemen worked the heck out of them at the house," saidanother official of the unsuccessful attempt to save the sprogs. Cheers! Vomit(II) Sprogcicles, Anyone?

To investigate Nytsch's killing, police used the extraordinary measure of taking saliva samples from over 16,000 local men, and our Hero came up a winner. Hm. Saliva from 16,000 guys, eh?

Cops'd received a complaint from the tenant who alleged that Kuchmak was entering her premises without her con- sent. She had surreptitiously videotaped Kuchmak wand- ering about her apartment, going through her belongings and eating her food. With the consent of the complainant, the DA's office set up hidden cameras that were activated when she left the premises. Kuchmak was observed looking through her per- sonal papers, removing Chinese food from the refrigerator and pissing in it, then placing it back in the fridge. A motive was never revealed. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * STOCKHOLM -- Cops are investigating a 23-year-old stu- dent for possible involvement in up to eight horrific mur- ders over the past four years. Our unIDed Hero, who is studying to be a teacher in Stock- holm, had already confessed to three snuffings. News that he is now being investigated for another five has shocked Sweden -- where there are few random killings and where only one modern-day Homicidal Hero has ever been caught. Swedish newspapers said most of the victims were stabbed to death in their apartments after being followed back from communal laundry rooms in their complexes. The killer then gouged out their eyes. According to a police spokesman: "The 23-year-old assaul- ted the victims long after they had died. That's where the satisfaction lay. This is why there is reason to investigate other murder cases with a strong violent pattern.'' The suspect was arrested in late May, and has since con- fessed to killing a 74-year-old man in his flat in '97 and to the murder of a 23-year-old man, his girlfriend and their dog in a flat in '98. ObBackground: Sweden's only convicted SK to date is 48- year-old Thomas Quick, who racked up between between 15 and 20 victims between 1964 and 1989. He is serving several concurrent life sentences.
