Jailhouse Rocks
I’m putting a call into the Marion County Juvenile Justice to try to get some answers as to how two 14-year old twins managed to be arrested 14 times and still end up back on the streets to commit another crime.
In the meanwhile, State Representative Phil Hinkle is proposing stepping up the punishment for parents whose children violate the law while on home detention.
The first offense would be a ticket. The second offense would get you community service and the third offense would land the parent in jail for a week.
The law would also try any juvenile as an adult whose been adjudicated more than six times in a two year period.
This may seem rough, but we have to start somewhere.
