Virginia high court rules parents must be notified in juvenile arrests
The Virginia Supreme Court on Friday ruled unanimously that both parents must be notified when a minor is arrested, a decision that could allow thousands of juvenile prisoners to challenge convictions. Jeramie Baker, convicted at 17 for robbing a store and stabbing a clerk, had only his mother notified. The ruling upends prior practice of notifying one parent and follows a state law change that takes effect in July and is not retroactive.
