current event

My article was about the ten year old boy who was responsible for starting one of the fires in LA. The police department decided that the child would not be punished since he really intended no harm and there will be no future issues with him.

I think that this was the right choice. I mean right now this kid probably feels really bad, and the best thing to do would be to tell him things are okay and that he is not a bad person. Instead of putting him in juvenile hall. Right now there is no potential threat of this kid being any harm to society in the future, but if he were to be more punished then I think there would be.
