A Maryland teenager received a get-out-of-jail-free card despite his involvement in a violent sex crime, thanks to the intervention of a woke state Democrat.
As WBFF reported, the State Attorney’s office revealed on June 29 that a 13-year-old has been released on probation with electronic monitoring despite being found to be involved in the rape of two 6-year-old girls in Calvert County.
The Calvert County State’s Attorney’s Office, which prosecuted the case, recommended that the youth be placed in a secure “out-of-home” facility to receive treatment and counseling.
While this was already an outrageously soft recommendation, what happened next was more shocking. The teen was returned to the home where some of the abuse allegedly occurred.
While the little girls victims no longer live in the home, they still reside in the same county.
Calvert County State’s Attorney Robert Harvey released the following statement, which was obtained by WBFF:
This case highlights everything that is wrong with our juvenile system. There is no accountability; no one’s responsible for anything.
It’s hard to imagine how this disposition makes the world safer for the citizens of Calvert County.
Below is a WJLA video report on the case.
The one person the Maryland public can thank for this fiasco is Betsy Fox Tolentino, the Democrat-appointed Secretary of the Department of Juvenile Services.
WJLA notes that under Maryland juvenile justice law, judges can follow recommendations from the State Department of Juvenile Services.
In this case, the sentencing judge agreed with the department’s recommendation to send the teen home.
Harvey expressed skepticism about whether the department would bother informing anyone if the teen decides to violate probation.
“Any violations of his probation will be reported to the State Department of Juvenile Services,” Harvey said to WJLA. “Are they going to let the court know? “Are they going to let the State attorney’s office know”
“Are we going to be able to do anything?”
