Freeman said nonviolent crimes committed by juveniles are treated much differently than similar crimes committed against people and there is still a small percentage of juveniles who commit violent crimes.
“If someone commits a violent crime against a person, we take that very seriously and there are detention centers across Minnesota for that,” he said. “But when a kid is not hurting others physically, we work with them and their families, and that can include home detention, community service and restitution because we should have patience with kids who still can turn things around.”
Records from the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office show violent crime among juveniles is up 64% in 2020 compared to this time a year ago.
