Podcasts about juvenile services

So a 16-year-old breaks into 121 cars in one night across three Maryland counties, causing thousands in damage to working families, and gets released after just 5 hours? Is anyone surprised by this level of judicial insanity?We dive into the Laurel, Maryland case that perfectly showcases our broken justice system. While 54 families in Laurel alone lost transportation and had to pay deductibles they couldn't afford, officials decided this wasn't "violent enough" to warrant accountability. The kid had stolen car keys and other evidence at his home, yet Maryland's Department of Juvenile Services said no prior record means no consequences.Meanwhile, the police chief is begging for basic accountability while parents miss work to clean up shattered glass. What message does this send to other criminals? When did property destruction stop mattering because it wasn't "violent"?Drop a comment - should parents be held financially responsible when their minor children cause this level of taxpayer-funded chaos? Like and subscribe if you're tired of seeing victims pay while criminals walk free.

Over the past decade, crimes committed by young people in Maryland fell by fifty percent, according to a recent report by the state Department of Juvenile Services. However, in the aftermath of the pandemic, there's been a rise in juvenile arrests, and certain categories of crime - like carjackings and handgun violations —have risen steeply. We ask Maryland Secretary of Juvenile Services Vincent Schiraldi what's behind the uptick and what DJS is doing to support at-risk youth.Links:Research Brief- Putting Youth Crime In Maryland in Context Crimes by Maryland youth down over last decade, report findsLawmakers assess whether juvenile services are effective, but law enforcement could help, tooGun violence among juveniles is rising.

Our guest today is Vincent Schiraldi, the Secretary of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services. Last week, the department released a report on juvenile crime. While the percentage of crimes committed by young people is drastically lower than crimes committed by adults, Maryland has seen an increase in juvenile crime over the last two years, although levels are down sharply over the last ten years. But the finding that is most concerning in this report is that violent crime committed by juveniles is up, as is the number of juvenile victims of crime.Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.

Roca, the violence intervention program that fixates on young men in Baltimore, is grounded on cognitive behavioral change. That's why, explains Roca's community partnership director JT Timpson, its model is to relentlessly pursue young men at risk and build relationships with them -- which takes years. Roca is in it for the long haul:  “Most of these young people, they suffer from distrust. So we really have to provide a way in which we can build a trusting relationship with them that then allows us to challenge them on the behaviors that we see them carrying out each and every day.”  Then Betsy Tolentino of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services, tells why case workers throughout the state are being trained in Roca's model … and how it's meeting success.
