DK, sorry to hear about this. First the stomach flu and then your stepson gets assaulted. Last week wasn't a particularly good week for you, was it?
If you can get cooperation from 7/11 and the DA, you can probably find a way to get felony charges filed, if that's what you want. You could also file civil charges against them, but if they're 20somethings, they probably don't have much to begin with. They're probably too old to go after the parents, who would theoretically have deeper pockets, but again, I'm working on the assumption that money is the motivating factor which is most likely an erroneous assumption given what I know of your character.
Bullies do indeed suck. I hope that you can find a way to teach them a lesson.
