http://www.state.ny.us/governor/press/year00/dec19_00.htm
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
December 19, 2000 GOVERNOR PATAKI SIGNS LAW TO HELP PARENTS OF TROUBLED TEENS Landmark Law Raises Age for PINS Petitions to 18
Governor George E. Pataki today signed into law legislation that will provide critical support to parents and guardians of troubled teenagers by raising the age a youth can be deemed a "person in need of supervision" (PINS) up to the age of 18. "Anyone who has raised or is raising a child knows the daily challenges parenting can present," Governor Pataki said. "Sometimes it can be very difficult to convince a youth, especially a troubled teenager, that he or she needs to make positive changes in his or her life. "This legislation gives caring parents or guardians the power of State law to help them guide their child away from a life of delinquency and diminished hopes, and toward a life of achievement and happiness." Raising the PINS age by two years will enable parents to petition Family Court to have their unruly or troubled 16- and 17- year-olds determined a PINS, and receive help from the Family Court in resolving the situation. The new legislation also raises by two years, up until 18, the age of a youth who can be deemed a "runaway" and returned to a parent or guardian. Senator Mary Lou Rath said, "I commend Governor Pataki, Assemblyman Kaufman, and all the PINS advocates for their efforts in making this long-awaited day possible. This law gives desperately needed help to a parent whose 16-year-old has run away from home to pursue life on the street. Right now an entire age group of children exists in a legal twilight zone in which no agency of the State can assist a parent in dealing with an incorrigible until that incorrigible finally breaks the law. This legislation will help reverse this intolerable situation."

Monmouth County Sheriff Joseph W. Oxley hosted the 11th annual Sheriff’s Youth Week from Aug. 5-9 at the Monmouth County Police Academy, Freehold Township. According to a press release from the sheriff’s office, the program provides young people with an opportunity to explore interests in law enforcement through police academy-style training, exercise programs and instructional sessions. This year’s program was highlighted by a variety of guest speakers. Participants, or "recruits," were exposed to various topics and organizations such as the Drug Enforcement Administration, Secret Service, New Jersey State Police bomb squad, homicide, police canine unit and U.S. Customs. "As special guest presenters, we invited officers from the Manalapan Police Department who participated in the rescue efforts at ground zero in the aftermath of the terror attacks of Sept. 11," Oxley said. "Recruits received a firsthand account of the sacrifice and service of our police, fire and EMS personnel."

CAPITOL CORRESPONDENT
OLYMPIA Each time the phone rang, Suzette Higuera experienced another
moment of agony. Her daughter had run away, and in the four days the Kenmore
girl was missing, each call carried the potential of disaster.
"You don't want it to be from the morgue," Higuera recalled.
When her daughter finally returned, Higuera went to court to use the state's so-called Becca law to bring her daughter, Kori Mendez, under control. The move eventually landed Mendez, who abused cocaine, marijuana and alcohol, in a treatment program at the Ryther Child Center in Seattle. The Becca law, named for Rebecca Hedman, a Tacoma runaway killed on the streets of Spokane, allows parents and schools to seek court-ordered help for truants, runaways and incorrigible youths. State courts reported more than 16,000 filings in 1998. Mendez, 16, conceded that without the court's order she would not have sought

FIRST LAW ENFORCEMENT ENCOUNTERS WITH TEMPLE MURDER TEENS ANYTHING BUT ROUTINE by Brian Downing Quig In the December 1993 issue of PHOENIX MAGAZINE Maricopa County Sheriff's Deputy Sergeant Russ Kimball, who was the coordinator of the multi-agency task force assigned to investigate the August 10th., 1991 military style execution of 9 Buddhists in a West Phoenix temple - writing with Features Editor, Laura Greenberg, - relates how the alleged murder weapon first came to the attention of law enforcement. We quote the first two paragraphs of this issue: "Thursday October 24, 1991" "It's lunchtime when Russ Kimball drops a thunderbolt on Sheriff's Sergeant Mark Mullavey: the Department of Public Safety just identified the rifle taken from Rolando Caratachea Jr. weeks ago (almost 7 weeks to be exact) as the gun that killed nine people at Wat Promkunaram. Mulavey blanches when he realizes Kimball isn't joking." "Mullavey reminds Kimball that the Office of Special Investigations at Luke Air Force Base spotted the first report of the gun associated with Caratachea and a friend, Jonathan Doody." This statement leads readers to assume that the security officers at Luke came upon the alleged murder weapon by chance. All accounts in local newspapers give the impression that Rolando Caratachea and Jonathan Doody were stopped for "suspicious conduct" on the 20th, and 21st. of August on Luke Air Force Base. This would have been just 10 days after what has been described as "the worst mass murder in Arizona history" and in Thailand as "the most heinous crime in the history of Buddhism." Documents supplied to the GRAPEVINE by the office of the Maricopa County Attorney clearly state that each time Rolando and Jonathan were stopped by base security personnel it was by the direction of bulletins issued by Master Sergeant Paul Thompson who was in charge of the Office of Special Investigations of the Security Police at Luke Air Force Base! Other aspects of these events represent themselves in the following reports as anything but routine.

Experts, but not teens, support helmet law
WILLIAM FINN BENNETT

LAKE ELSINORE Although an existing law requiring children to wear helmets while riding bicycles is rarely enforced in the region, backers of a proposed new law requiring skateboarders and scooter riders to wear helmets say it would reduce injuries. State Sen. Jack O'Connell, D-San Luis Obispo, recently introduced Senate Bill 1924, which would require all minors to wear a helmet when riding skateboards and non-motorized scooters. A spokeswoman for Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar said anything that will get children to wear helmets while skating or riding scooters can't come too soon. That hospital's emergency room has treated five victims younger than 13 for skateboard or scooter accidents in the past six months. Four of them suffered serious head trauma, she said.

TEMECULA The group of Chaparral High School students who stood shivering in the cold on a Friday night could easily have been partying, dancing or lying around talking on the phone or playing video games. Instead, they spent several hours standing on the street, watching and learning lessons they could share with their peers. The students are part of the Friday Night Live program, a peer-counseling group designed to promote lifestyles free of alcohol, drugs and tobacco. The pilot program was developed in 1984 in Sacramento by the state Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and the California Office of Traffic Safety in an effort to reduce the number of deaths and injuries caused by teen motorists driving under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. The teens had been notified by their adviser, Rachel DeYoung, that members of the Police Department planned to block off lanes on Jefferson Avenue and set up a drunken-driving checkpoint.

PROPOSED VA LAWS TARGET TEENS by Daniel Jackson
news section editor Over the past few weeks, Virginia state senators and delegates have been meeting in a general assembly in Richmond. As always, the assembly, whose members review and vote on proposed legislation, has attracted much media attention. This year, however, the proceedings have been of particular interest to high school students. A number of this year's proposed laws specifically target children and teens, especially public school students. These laws range from driving restrictions to an "etiquette" bill requiring students to address their teachers. All of the "teen-targeted" bills are being sponsored by Loudoun and Fairfax County representatives. Another controversial law, the so-called "respect" or "etiquette" law, was sponsored by Del. Richard Black (R) of Sterling. The law, which would have required all public school students to address their teachers as "sir" or "ma'am", was defeated in the Virginia legislature, according to Washington Post columnist Marc Fisher ("Lawmakers Can't Mandate Patriotism", 01/30/01). The law had received sharp criticism in columns and letters to the editor at the Post and Leesburg Today. Many educators also criticized the bill; their numbers included Broad Run English teacher Mr. Jim Noland, who said the bill "sounds ridiculous" and that it attempted to treat the symptoms of the problem of disrespect for teachers without attempting to get at the core of the problem itself.

SNAPSHOT: Teens drawn to law enforcement are tested in cadet program
By LIZ GANNES Waking up at 5 in the morning to do push ups while being yelled at. Helping a police office hand out speeding tickets. Serving as a security guard at school dances. Such duty may not sound appealing, but it's the price teens pay to learn law enforcement skills in the cadet training program of the Menlo Park Police Department. Just ask Ramiro Urena, 19, of Menlo Park, a recent Sequoia High graduate, who is contemplating a career in law enforcement. Three years ago, he signed up for the cadet program, inspired by his older brother Carlos, a former cadet. Before he was even accepted for training, he went through an extensive background check that included family, friends, neighbors, and school teachers. Then, there's a kind of boot camp called "academy." "The word any cadet hates the most is 'drop,'" Ramiro says. "One, sir; two, sir; three, sir" is the conditioned response, to be said while performing push-ups. Not allowed to talk to each other or even smile, cadet hopefuls plow through eight long days of training. "You get there when the sun's down and leave when the sun's down," he says.

Because the vehicles are classified as mopeds, they don't require a license. ROME (AP) Niccolo turns the key and holds tight as his little vehicle shudders forward with a noise like a diesel lawnmower grinding long grass. This isn't exactly a Ferrari, but the snubbed-nosed, 8-foot-long minicar isn't bad for a teenager's first wheels. What is worrying, especially to pedestrians who brave the screeching cars and mopeds zinging by on Italian roads, is that Niccolo Cantaloni, 17, is too young to get a driver's license. Yet what he's doing is quite legal. Thanks to a twist of Italian law, kids as young as 14 can drive so-called minicars, which are much smaller and much slower than normal cars, though they can't get licenses until age 18.

'Cabaret Law' Allows Teens In Drinking Clubs
16-Year-Old Can Now Go In Places Where Alcohol Is Served
POSTED: 8:38 a.m. MST December 18, 2001
UPDATED: 9:54 a.m. MST December 18, 2001
DENVER Teens can now legally get into dance clubs that serve alcohol, after the Denver city council passed a "cabaret bill" Monday night. The bill allows dance establishments to cater to teenagers 16 years of age and older with a new special underage patrons license, 7NEWS reported. One level of the license keeps teenagers out of areas where alcohol is served, while another level allows a mixed venue, which does let teens party in areas where alcohol is served. According to the bill, the city council presumes that the club "does not have any related liquor violations relating to teens and does not have a history of public nuisance offenses on the premises." But the city said it will watch the clubs closely to make sure that the teens are just dancing and not drinking.

Prostitution law upheld
Judge rules teens can be kept in custody Calgarians trying to get teen hookers off the street are cheering a ruling that upholds a controversial law to keep the kids in safe houses without their consent. Justice John Rooke's decision was released yesterday, quashing the earlier family court decision to strike down the Protection of Children Involved in Prostitution Act. "It's a good news story for kids involved in prostitution and it's a bad day for johns and pimps," said an overjoyed Heather Forsyth, the Tory MLA behind the bill which allows kids to be held for 72 hours. Street Teams executive director Simonne Walsh let out a whoop when she learned the judicial review had come out in favour of the ground-breaking legislation. "Thank God the judicial review saw it," said Walsh, whose group works with teens at risk of prostitution. "Yes, kids have rights. But when they're being manipulated and brought into a system like prostitution, they need to be protected." Justice Rooke said in his decision the law doesn't unfairly contravene the rights of children.

Law to detain teens pending treatments still an option
The government is keeping the door open for legislation that would permit authorities to detain drug-addicted teens and juvenile prostitutes in an effort to treat them, Gretchen Brewin, B.C.'s minister responsible for children and families, said Sunday. The legislation, the subject of lobbying efforts for several years, would mean child protection workers and police could forcibly bring the youths to a secure care facility, where they could be held against their will for 72 hours. "This piece of legislation was under consideration when I came into the office, and it is still under consideration," Brewin said in an interview Sunday, following up on remarks she made earlier on the weekend. Speaking to the annual meeting of the B.C. Association of Social Workers, she implied that secure care was no longer being actively discussed this year because it is "too controversial." In the later interview, she said the legislation is "very unlikely to come forward in the spring session" of the legislature. "But there is a real possibility that it will be on the fall agenda. I think we need to have more discussion about it. You never say never." Brewin said she was previously advised by certain officials that the legislation is "too controversial" and "problematic" and she was told there are concerns regarding the legal ramifications. As a result of those recommendations, Brewin said she decided to look into it further before making a decision.
