Kalmbach was the last of four teenagers to be sentenced in the case. ‘It’s almost impossible to imagine this could happen between friends, but it did,’ Multnomah County Judge Jean Kerr Maurer said when accepting Kalmbach’s guilty pleas on kidnapping, robbery and assault charges.
Police and prosecutors said the teens spent the evening before the February attack sketching out ideas for torturing the victim. Before Kalmbach carved the swastika with a box-cutter, they shot the victim with a BB gun in his private parts and chest, forced him to eat cat feces and hit with him a crow bar and cricket-type bat.
