How? Teen Convicted of 20 Sex Crimes Sentenced to 45 Days In JailWhat kind of judge, district attorney or whoever agrees to a deal like this?I believe in the rehabilitation of minors, but if someone attacks people this many times, I think it's passed that point.
A Michigan high school student who was once charged with 20 counts of sexual assault for raping at least three teenage girls was sentenced to only a month and a half in a juvenile facility.Based on the deal, the teen is expected to be home with his family before Christmas.The now 16-year-old Brighton Township teen, whose identity was withheld because of his age, accepted a plea agreement Thursday to six of the felonies, Fox 2 reports.Under the agreement, the teen has to serve 45 days at a juvenile facility, register as a sex offender for life and possibly complete an outpatient sex rehab program in Monroe following his release.The lenient sentence has left the three young victims and their families terrified and angry."She has a life sentence; all of these girls do. And to give him 45 days doesn't even seem fair to what these girls have gone through," said one parent, identified only as Ashley.Parents of the victims told Fox 2 that the boy's probation officer and defense attorney said that testing done by experts showed that he didn't need to be sent to a facility for more than a year. The parents also said they know of more victims who have not come forward."He has practiced the same M.O. and has practiced the same tactics with multiple young girls," another parent, Jackie, told the outlet. "(I'm worried) he's going to continue to offend and that's the thing all of our girls were most concerned about."According to the Livingston Daily, the teen sexually assaulted the girls in February 2016 when he was 14. His youngest victim was 12. -(Minnyvonne Burke, NY Daily News)
