Suspect’s Father Gets Probation:

David Shefelbine, the father of suspected serial predator Scott Shefelbine, received probation for punching out a female reporter.

David Shefelbine of Tolland, father of Scott Shefelbine, received the special form of probation for a year, by Judge Patricia L. Harleston.

In granting the probation, Harleston directed David Shefelbine to have “no assaultive behavior toward anyone, particularly anyone in the news media.”

I guess there goes the father-son picnic at county lockup.
