“The allegations that Steven Teague and Terika Thomas not only brought their daughters to assault a classmate, but also encouraged and watched as the beating took place are disturbing,” Berlin said. “Fortunately, the victim of this attack was not seriously injured. My office takes these allegations very seriously and will prosecute these suspects to the fullest extent of the law. I thank the Naperville Police Department for their work on this deeply disturbing case. I also thank assistant -state attorneys Nick Catizone and Alysa Feld for their work on this case.”
