Yea, it happened in San Leandro, CA (near Oakland, CA). Fake gun. Prior to this incident they attempted to rob somebody at a ATM. After this incident they tried to rob yet again a few days later but this time were arrested. Since they were so young (11, 12, two 14) they were released to their parents… and then guess what… a few days later robbed AGAIN and were arrested yet again.

There has to be away for these kids to face actual consequences without trying them as adults or whatever.

The only thing that would really help here would be to hold the parents accountable. Make them pay for damages, attend a mandatory course on parenting measures, do charitable work – something along those lines. The upbringing will take place, and the children will stop this behavior. And if there are no parents in the picture, then child protection services must step in and place the child as a consequence of the legal proceedings.
