Waywarp YOUTH

The youth’s parents were respectable
people, well thought of in the community. PRINCE GEORGE DETACHMENT
The lad had been a trial to his family and
on several former occasions when he had
transgressed, he had been warned and
made to report to the Juvenile Court.
Every effort had been taken by both
authorities and parents to lead the boy
away from a path of crime but the results
in this case had not met with the success
of so many others.

When Jimmy was charged in Juvenile
Court, the Judge told the boy that for his
own sake and that of the community, the
case would have to be transferred to the
criminal courts for disposal. Jimmy then
appeared in Police Court and pleaded
“guilty” to four separate charges of
theft, and breaking and entering prem-
ises. The Judge very regretfully sen-
tenced the young man to a term of two
years less one day in Oakalla Prison
Farm. The court expressed the opinion
that this sentence was necessary under
the circumstances, and that with the
