Get tough on hoaxters

March 24, 2013
Catching these alleged bomb hoaxsters is all well and good, but what happens to them is where we are going wrong.

First, kudos to our local police department and sheriffs organization for their diligent work in apprehending local hoodlums.

The problem is where our local judicial system gives them a slap on the wrist and lets them off with nominal fines.

Read the sheriff and court logs that are posted on newsbf.com!

"A local teen born 1998, charged with burglary, a felony, February 1 by the Boundary County Sheriff’s Office, admitted true and sentenced to 180 days detention, 147 days suspended, 30 days home confinement, $70 court costs and two years probation ."

A felony, and this is all that happens.

If we got tougher maybe theses teens would learn something.
