Re: Juvenile Consequences
Probably they will all be treated as juveniles, if they are such, and their dispositions will depend in large part on their prior criminal histories. If they have prior charges, they could get jail time. If not, probably probation. It is impossible to provide a more specific answer on the facts presented.
