I have difficulty remaining calm and useful when I read of such events.
It makes me want to visit great and terrible things onto the bullies. I know perfectly well it is what they understand best. I would be the bigger fish. I would be their new bully.
Now, I suppose you have a pretty good guess which group of bastards is picking on this kid. Probably narrowed down to a small group.
Probably what I'd do is make them personally accountable for any bullying that happens to the other kid, no matter who picks on him. Maybe not as a group, but visit punishment on one of them randomly, any time that kid gets bullied. My intent would be to make them personally responsible to see that behavior end. Since it is almost certainly a small group of punks, by picking one of their group at random to take the heat, it would be using peer pressure among that group to leave that kid alone.
