Juvenile Delinquency in Miner, SD
Unfortunately, in many areas of the Miner County, juvenile delinquency offenses are on the rise. There are many reasons for the inflation in youth offenders. The juvenile sentence in South Dakota often depends on the severity of the crime, the number of charges, and other family matters.
A lot of counties, including, Miner County, are focusing on family counseling and relationships rather than punishment for juvenile crimes. Future Miner County juvenile delinquency tallies will show whether or not this approach is working.
