[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't need weird conspiracy theories to explain high housing costs. Housing is expensive here because DC is a very popular place to live and demand far, far, far exceeds supply and because salaries here, across the board, from cops to lobbyists, are extremely high. We have an incredible crisis in youth crime right now and that's where the AG should be focused. [/quote] Does the DC Attorney General even have authority to prosecute juveniles? He shares jurisdiction with the US Attorney and says on his website that his office prosecutes "adults who commit certain criminal offenses."[/quote] Yes, OAG handles all juvenile prosecutions. The adult cases OAG handles are traffic, quality of life (drinking in public, indecent exposure, etc.), and misdemeanor gun cases (possession of an unregistered firearm and possession of unregistered ammo) that aren’t part of a felony case being brought by USAO.
