What would your sentence be for a minor who gropes a woman?

Repeatedly? Does he need all five fingers?

Two weeks should straighten him right out!!

Spending more time with other criminals in jail will increase the risk of him committing worse crimes in the future.

10-90 days is plenty when combined with a treatment program.

I’m guessing he must not be black. If he was, he would have likely been tried as an adult.

Well in the original reddit post, the victim described the man's clothing but never mentioned his race. Make of that what you will.

The worst part is he will be back in a regular high school where there are usually NO consequences when he grabs and gropes and sexually harasses girls and teachers.

Often times teens like this are in special education under emotionally disturbed or other health impaired due to ADHD. So their parents say they have impulse control issues and can't help it so it is a manifestation of their disability so they CAN'T be punished. So they aren't punished, so they get to stay in school to harass and terrorize more of their classmates and teachers.

This is an awful consequence of the juvenile justice system no longer incarcerating teens who deserve to be incarcerated in camps or some other structured program. Incarceration rates are down 70%. Schools now have to deal with these kids. So much time is spent by administrators on kids who 10 years ago would have been incarcerated for sexual offenses, attempted murder, car jackings, etc.

I’m guessing he IS black and that’s why he is only getting a stern talking to.

He grabbed her crotch and then ran away when she screamed. Better to focus on treatment program to address his issues than send him to juvie longer to pick up some bad habits.

Yes, we wouldn’t this fine young man to pick up any bad habits!

A speeding ticket = sexual assault?

I mean, in the mind of sexual assault apologists, speeding tickets, shoplifting, and at least 5 separate incidents of groping random strangers are all about equal 🤷‍♀️

The willful blindness here to the role these acts play in the life cycle of a sexually violent predator is really something.

Grabbing, running when challenged—these are the acts of someone who has strong impulsive wants and hasn’t yet figured out how to overpower a person to predate on.

Y’all apologists for this are crazy.

Yep. You broke it. You own it.

OK. This seems like a reasonable sentence to me. Next?

Sure. Until he grabs you or your daughter - or worse. Then you'll be outraged that he was never properly sentenced. But for now, it's all good. Just someone else's loved ones.

OMG! He groped a girl! Lock him up forever! GMAFB.

5 women, and possibly more who didn’t come forward. And he recorded them. Deliberately stalked them from the bushes, basically. No one is saying he needs to be LoCkEd Up FoReVeR or whatever you crime apologists are advocating for. But what would he have been charged with if he did this a few months later as an 18 year old and how long would his sentence have been? That’s what I want. Maybe it’s 90 days in adult detention + sex offender registry + the diversion class, I don’t know. But that seems much more fair than 10 days in juvenile, no registry, the offender class, and going back to regular HS like nothing ever happened.

He's a minor and it was a minor offense. Adult jail is overkill as is the registry.

And he could potentially serve the full 90 days if he doesn't comply with the sentencing.

Also, pretty amazing that the same people blowing this off as no big deal would be beyond outraged if this person was white and had assaulted WOC. Such incredibly hypocrites.
