Re: Crime and Punishment
The question is a little too general to give you a specific answer. The possible juvenile penalties and programs are varied. As a first timer with a non-violent crime and some sort of restitution, the youthful offender (YO) program is an alternative that avoids penalties and a record with some strings attached. I would need to know more to tell you more.
