Re: Juvenile Penalties
If we were dealing with adults the maximum penalty for an M4 is up to 30 days in jail and a $250.00 fine. However the juvenile system is different. The Magistrate or Judge has great latitude in sentencing . Yes there is a "reform school" for children who are sentenced to prison.
