Good to hear JAFO, not only because some are abusing the system in the normal juvenile detention centres but also because it serves to help separate the career criminals from the one-time short-term offenders who actually have a chance of learning a lesson and contributing to society in their adult life.

That is it you want these type of kid to have positive role models not a crim who will spend most of his life in a prison and would use kids like we are talking about to do there bidding. Have a great weekend. 73z E=mc2

What I want to know is, was it a dual-control learner driver car and if so, could the front passenger also have been charged with driving?
