Sleepover

A sleepover at a Bucks County home turned into a sex party between a 38-year-old woman and five boys as young as 14, Lower Makefield Township police said. Police Chief Ken Coluzzi said that the woman, identified as Angela Honeycutt, had sex with a 15-year-old boy in a bathroom. Afterward, she took a 14-year-old boy into the shower where she masturbated him and allowed him to penetrate her with his finger. Coluzzi said that the "sleepover" took place April 14 at the home of Lynne Long, 45, whose son invited the five other boys but was not present when the incidents took place.

A 13-year-old girl who was unintentionally shot in the chest early Sunday was attending a supervised girls' sleepover, according to her mother.

Kristen Lynn Hocker, 15, of Glenolden, and Sandra Lee Boyer, 13, from Springfield, were the best of friends, brought together by their years in classes for the physically disabled. Although the two were inseparable, they had never had a sleepover until Saturday night, at Kristen's house here. That night, the girls died in a house fire that also killed Edward L. Hocker Jr., 17, Kristen's brother and a senior at Interboro High School. When an emergency crew arrived about 1:45 a.m. Sunday, responding to a call from Kristen, they found the two-story, single-family dwelling in flames.

As the hours passed last night with no sign of a 6-year-old Philadelphia girl who disappeared yesterday morning from a sleepover at a Kensington rowhouse, initially optimistic detectives began to think the worst.

DEAR ABBY: My 12-year-old daughter, "Mandy," was invited to a friend's birthday party along with 12 other girls. They were told to meet at the mall where they'd "go shopping" together, then go for a sleepover afterward. The birthday girl told her friends to bring money as gifts. Well, she raked in more than $300 then proceeded to spend it all on herself while her friends stood and watched. Mandy returned home the next day and told me that although the girl spent the money on herself, her mom did buy them each a beverage.

IT COMES down to one question, really: Can Occupy Philly carry on, if it has to stick to business hours? That's what members of the movement were left to consider last night after the city revealed terms of a potential no-sleepovers-allowed permit for protesters who have called Dilworth Plaza home for the past month. The permit, which would last until Dec. 20, would let Occupy Philly demonstrate on Thomas Paine Plaza, outside the Municipal Services Building, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.

DEAR ABBY: My 12-year-old niece "Tammy" is very shy. When I recently visited my brother's home, she hid in her parents' bedroom behind a closed door. She wouldn't come out to say hi or even speak to me through the door. Today I was on the phone with my sister-in-law and I asked if I could say hello to Tammy. I was told Tammy had left the room because she didn't want to talk. My sister-in- law then remarked that she has the shiest kids on Earth. I think Tammy's parents should make her speak to me (or anyone else)

It may have seemed like innocent summer fun for the four teens at the sleepover: sneak out of the house in the middle of the night and go for a joyride in a high-powered sports car. But the driver, 16-year-old Montgomery Wood, didn't even have his learner's permit. Those were among the details that police disclosed Friday about the Chester County crash that killed Wood and a friend, Brittany Leger, 15. Two other passengers, Damien Paterno and Cameron Merlino, both also 15, were injured.

Life was looking pretty good through the eyes of 6-year-old Aasin Williams. The little guy was positively giddy yesterday, and for good reason: He was going to celebrate his last day of first grade by having a sleepover with some pals, his family said.

Police said the boy was struck in the shoulder by a stray bullet when a trigger-happy thug shot up 13th and Pike streets in Hunting Park at 4:25 p.m. A 25-year-old man who was the apparent target of the shooter was wounded once in the leg, said Detective Shawn Leahy, of East Detectives.

A suburban mother who hosted a teen party that descended into a depraved sleepover was placed on two years' probation yesterday in Bucks County Court. Weeping and apologizing, Lynne Long-Higham said her ability to control the April gathering had been hampered by a reaction to a psychiatric drug she had just begun taking. "Not a day goes by that I don't despair" about what went on in her apartment in Lower Makefield, Long-Higham, 46, told Judge John J. Rufe. "It sickens me to think that children were hurt while in my care.
