TUPPER LAKE -- Ogdensburg and Tupper Lake men were arrested Monday after allegedly assaulting a consumer at Sunmount Developmental Disabilities Services Office (DDSO), according to state police.

Troopers said they arrested 31-year-old Jimmy J. Beaulieu of Ogdensburg and 49-year-old Robert C. Kennedy of Tupper Lake.

Beaulieu and Kennedy, who are employees at Sunmount, reportedly assaulted a 22-year-old resident Jan. 14, causing severe bruising to the left side of his face.

The men then filed official paperwork implicating that another consumer had committed the acts, officers said.

Both men were charged with first-degree endangering the welfare of an incompetent person, a class E felony, first-degree falsifying business records, a class E felony, third-degree assault and making a false written statement, troopers said.

Beaulieu and Kennedy were both arraigned at the Tupper Lake Town Court where Beaulieu was remanded to the Franklin County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail, $10,000 bond, officers said.

Kennedy was released under the supervision of the Franklin County Probation Department, police said.

Both men are to reappear in the Tupper Lake court Feb. 18 at 5 p.m.
