Charge them as adults. This isn't just being young and stupid. This is organized crime.

[petercanada]

Publish their name and photos.. and put them in jail

[Barrybushski-gekf]

To be charged and sentenced like adults…. 10 straight yrs without parole .

[abstract]

These teenagers are hired by criminals to commit crimes, please charge them as adults….

[OG-Anetka]

The Young Offenders Act NEEDS an overhaul!
Theft over $1, 000, Theft with a weapon, ANY Assaults, and Murder... the YOs Name and Photos SHOULD be released and published.

I bet they will be out on bail. This has to stop. They must get charged as adults. No mercy.

[IKhanNot]

Charge as adults. That's an adult level crime, not some petty theft or possession.

[moneypenny]

Can be 17 to join the military. Not 'boys'.

[moelo]

Automatic 20 years for auto theft, give them the right disincentive.

[roadtopeace]

What do you expect when you have a a government that protects behaviours like this!

[HAMBURGER-sl]

No consequences means more crimes and corruptions. These people are being used by the crime syndicate. Should be charged as adults. The judicial system needs to be revamped for this kind of crimes. These crimes are coming soon in your

[jackjones-xs]

No regard for our laws because our laws are laughable 😂😂😂

[andytran]

We should have the right to self-defense.

[nicktolentino]

they need to arrest or fine a hefty amount to their parents to teach them a lesson too. It will certainly give parents a heads up to talk to their kids hopefully. But someone needs to learn.

[gmihroe]

Of course they can't name them because they are teens. Its a joke this guys they should be in jail for life. They are braking in houses with the owners are at home.

[DanR-rx]

The hammers are not just for breaking windows but used to cave in a persons head (clueless reporter).
The parents of these children need to be charged as well because they are legally responsible for the actions of their children!

[Nick-jk]

Released… Out to do their next job.
Thanks Trudeau

[tanniswmckinnon]

This is where the parents need to be arrested and charged along side the kids and the justice system needs an overhaul. We need to be like the Sheriff in the States. You commit the crime you are perp walked and then photo released on the news channel. Enough of this young offenders BS anymore

[AuralioCabal]

You gotta love Justin Trudeaus " HUG A THUG" and the Lieberals Young Offenders Act policy.😮....😂

[butwhytharum]

If kids know theyll get jail time and it will effect the rest of their lives they might not even get involved in the first place...
