History
In spite of repeated requests to Bloomfield officials, roads remained unpaved, water and sewer systems were nonexistent, and schools were miles away. Area residents marked out the boundaries of a area to secede from the adjoining town. The boys who were involved included twin brothers Kevin and Kyle Scherzer, brothers Paul and Chris Archer, Bryant Grober, and Richard Corcoran Jr. Residents "on the hill" became unhappy with their representation on the Bloomfield Council. Others were present at the rape, but were not convicted because they did not participate.
