Those who victimize children deserve every bit of contempt and opprobrium. I hope they are soon apprehended and are punished.
agree..vandals have just cost the children and the taxpayer. Very sad.
Bet their families are really proud of them.
This why we have insurance.
Somebody wanted to see a bon fire. Probably set the fire just for kicks.
Max penalty, PLEASE!
What is it in this state for felony criminal property damage? Probation and restitution (probably homeless and/or unemployed so payment plan of $5 per year) with the possibility of expunging the record too?
