Police charged Anthony Tubolino, 25, with second-degree rape, second-degree sodomy and third-degree unlawful transaction with a minor. Austin Dennis, 21, was charged with second-degree sodomy and 22-year-old Jacob Ruth was charged with second-degree sodomy. Tyler Hart, 19, was charged with first-degree sexual abuse and second-degree sodomy, according to police.
