I think sometimes people forget that just having them behind bars is preventing them from committing crimes in the community.
This kid clearly can't be controlled by parents, wouldn't be going to school and has a terrible friendship group.
The aggregated statistics tell you that prison isn't great for people, but in some cases it is. Juvie is probably the best chance this kid has of attending school and getting the most basic of education.
But I fear this will just be a person who it's better for all of society is behind bars as much as possible, because no matter what you do with them, if they're out, they'll be committing crimes.
