Juveniles work off fines
Punishment for juvenile offenders in Douglas County, Alaska, more than 10 years old, did pay.
Since November, eight juveniles have served sentences for crimes by performing community service. County Probate Judge Mike Elwell said yesterday.
Elwell said the juveniles had served sentences by working at the Lawrence Community Center, the Lawn Park, and the Humane Society and local nursing homes.
Before he gives such sentences, Elwell said, he considers the nature of the offense, the age of the juvenile and whether the offense was intentional. He primarily forges such as vandalism.
Elwell said the sentence was devised because juveniles often weren't able to pay
"The sentence is a form of punishment for the juvenile and retribution to the community." Elwell said. "The alternative is to do nothing."
The sentence is usually 30 hours. But, about 100 hours were served in one day.
The job sentence isn't a formalized
program. It is a successful

said. Punishment for juveniles is measured in numbers of hours that must be worked. In contrast, adult offenders work off fines at a rate of $5 an hour.
Judy Osburn, director of county corrections, said more than 30 adults had worked off $2,000 to $4,000 in fines since the start of the war, where juveniles have served, adult offenders have worked at the Boys Club, adults and at picking up trash along county roads.
"At one time, we had the idea of requiring a juvenile who had damaged private property to work off his punishment with a police officer. "However, we were afraid that the juvenile might be required to perform a dangerous job or that the property owner might be convicted."
Ann Evens, director of the Lawrence Art Center, said she supported the job sentences because the art center didn't have funds to hire a regular janitor.
"The offender that worked here started out with a negative attitude but finally realized she deserved punishment," Evans said. "I think it's a super way of working off an offense, and the parents in this instance felt the same way."
