As the Maryland General Assembly weakens laws which would give violent juveniles appropriate consequences for crimes, two violent incidents occurred in the past six months that show the ultimate consequence for protecting criminal juveniles from prosecution.
Here is the most recent Senate Bill:
This bill would keep criminal juveniles from being prosecuted as adults, even for crimes of violence.
Recent events at the Baltimore County Public Schools have raised concerns among parents and the public about safety of students in these schools and the increased violence among students.
Recently at Perry Hall High School, a student was stabbed off-campus near the school in a fight that allegedly started in the school. Many parents have asked the Baltimore County Schools to address bullying and violence in the schools to no avail. The Perry Hall school administration put out a statement saying that appropriate disciplinary actions will be pursued for those involved.

Another incident occurred last Fall near Kenwood High School, where a 16-year-old student was arrested for stabbing a classmate off campus. The classmate suffered a non-life-threatening wound. The school was placed under a brief lockdown because of the fight.

It’s Happening In Virginia As Well
It’s not only Maryland where unchecked juvenile criminal attacks are happening. In the Fairfax Schools in Virginia, an illegal alien student has been accused of randomly grabbing girls in the school’s hallways by their private parts and then slapping them on their butts. These incidents have been reported for weeks, but the schools refused to acknowledge or address the situation. Some parents claim the district wants to sweep the incidents under the rug.

These incidents highlight the need for continued vigilance and action to ensure the safety and well-being of students in our nation’s public schools.
