The Office of Juvenile Affairs created a rehabilitation plan and presented it to the judge Monday. The plan included more than 100 hours of community service, a curfew, no social media, daily check-ins and weekly counseling until his 19th birthday. It was approved.
One thing I always stay weary of is all the details that were removed from the court records to fit it into a news report. Like you can’t include everything and what I find out whenever I look deeper then it’s not as horrible as what I thought it was… then next time I see an article like this I don’t read it bc I already know that this article is going to be just as bad as the last ones.
It’s kinda like ‘wolf’ has been cried to me basically all my life… like what kind of emergency/bad-thing do I actually need to respond too.
Which is why…
…which was omitted from your summary. This guy is clearly getting a ridiculously light sentence, but this quote is vital information that shows how serious his offences were.
While rehabilitation is a much better way to prevent re-offending compared with incarceration, this guy needs way more than just a year of counseling and a few weeks of community service.
See I knew I didn’t have to fucking read it
(╯ರ ~ ರ)╯︵ ┻━┻
Why would that even be included in the summary to begin with? It doesn’t make people feel good or bad to read it?
It’s just repulsive unmarketable information.
Why the fuck should I read the rest of the article? I know I’ll get no objective or subjective value from it, if I want the bottom of the bone dry fucking barrel I would have to read the court transcripts.
I DON’T HAVE TIME TO ASK CHATGPT TO FIND THAT FOR ME!! I have to socialize with my friends and touch grass and be healthy!
Honestly OP at this point you shouldn’t’ve posted this thread. Lemmy isn’t going to fail because of lack of engagement and low user count, it’s going to fail because there are no more worthwhile links to post.
I miss when journalists put relevant information in their articles
If he had been a woman who shot an abuser in self defense, he would have ended up in prison.
This entire situation is insane. He is going to end up killing someone, someday.
Without the right corrective measure that is quite possible.
