"He could face 15 to 36 weeks in juvenile detention for each count at his sentencing hearing Nov. 25 in juvenile court. Detention time for the counts would run consecutively."
Im not one for "life sentences" on the first offense (most of the time) but I do find a 15-36 week sentence a little light for first degree rape of a child.
If this kid did this at 15 years old its clear he was thinking about it for a long time. I remember myself liking boys starting at age 12-13 or so. Its sad our society and the christian right is so up in arms about sexual education in our schools we don't have programs (like DARE for drugs) to teach our kids about sexual issues.
This kid needs long-term intensive therapy in a structured secure enviornment.
Herein lies a big problem with juvenile crime. Once he turns 18 in most states the record is sealed. I assume he'll be on the registry there but will that carry over past 18?
A sad case with failures all the way around.
