Vada Vasquez
Police have charged five young men between the ages of 16-20 with attempted murder in connection to the shooting, which was directed at Tyrone Creighton, 19, who took a bullet to a lung but has been released from the hospital. Vasquez had been walking home from school when 16-year-old Carvett Gentles allegedly began shooting, accidentally hitting Vasquez.
Two of the men charged have since been moved to protective custody on Rikers Island, because they fear for their safety. A lawyer for Cleve Smith, the alleged ringleader, tells the Post, "He's faced a fair amount of abuse while in custody."

"He's faced a fair amount of abuse while in custody."
A "fair" amount? Seems hard to believe. It'd take a lot of abuse to be fair.
Right. They gave random street shooters a bad name.
Title is misleading; presumably victim has been speaking for several years
"He's faced a fair amount of abuse while in custody."
Cry me a river.
I clicked "like" twice, for both the girl waking up and the fair amount of abuse.
Very hopeful for the girl. She deserves a miracle. The shooter and his pals deserve an anti-miracle.
Agreed, and I'm using "anti-miracle" in casual conversation today.
As if we didn't have enough evidence that Cleve Smith is a sociopath, now his lawyer informs us that he's crying about his shitty situation in jail. What sane person would have any sympathy for this savage?
Glad to hear that Vada Vasquez is improving. Things weren't looking so good for her at first, so this is fantastic news.
I'm so glad that she's doing well. This is great news and wish her the very best during her recovery.
I hope the punks responsible are anally raped in prison...then take bullets to the lungs.
