City pushes tougher penalties for juvenile crime in Bluefield
Bluefield Board of Directors backs a campaign to urge West Virginia lawmakers to create and enforce parental responsibility and harsher juvenile offenses. A draft report by Joe Long proposes boot camps for violent youths and aging penalties, with a plan to treat older teens as adults for serious crimes and to impose staged fines on guardians. The board will finalize the recommendations by its December 26 meeting.
