"16 Calif. teens arrested for looting party at mansion", written by Samantha Schaefer, was published in the Los Angeles Times on December 12, 2013. This article talks about teenagers from California who were arrested because they stole expensive and unusual belongings from a mansion during a party that was thrown at the property.  At the time of the party, the mansion was vacant because the owner of the home was trying to sell it. Some of the suspects, including the ring leader of the party, are still at large. The juveniles who were arrested do have charges that they will have to face.  These charges include: trespassing, grand theft, and possible underage drinking. I chose this article because I can use this story as a concrete example of juvenile delinquency in America today. Another reason why I chose this article is because I saw what charges and consequences a juvenile can face.
