Bond for retarded youth shows no rehab solution
An 18 year old described as retarded was released on a bond after a Canberra court heard no practical rehabilitation solution existed. Terry Ranger, an invalid pensioner, faced multiple charges including offensive behaviour and theft of bicycles. He remains in remand while other charges are set for April 19. Ranger must live under welfare officer supervision and pay compensation. Court notes limited facilities and lack of a closed therapeutic institution for such cases.
