CASE STUDY ONE: COLLEEN M.
Colleen M.
is a 15-year-old Caucasian girl. She has lived in the state for
her entire life. Her father abandoned the family when she was
an infant and her mother is currently in a drug rehabilitation
facility. Colleen has been living on a farm with her aunt.
Although she has no prior contact with the law, she admits to
having run away from her aunt in the past, though she always
returned on her own.
Colleen’s current trouble is centered on a neighbor’s dispute
about her dog. After the dog bit the neighbor, the neighbor
threatened and attempted to take the dog to animal control.
When the neighbor later found Colleen and the dog trespassing
on her property, the neighbor verbally threatened to “get” them
both. Apparently, the neighbor set fire to a scarecrow on her
property to emphasize her point.
At this point, Colleen threw a nearby bucket of liquid on the
neighbor. The liquid was later determined to be a pesticide. The
pesticide burned the skin on contact and triggered an extreme
allergic reaction in the neighbor, resulting in her death. Colleen
was charged with involuntary manslaughter and was determined
delinquent by the court. Colleen claims that she was simply
attempting to douse the fire.
Coincidentally, a few weeks prior, Colleen had been a passenger
of a motor home that had collided with a vehicle driven by the
neighbor’s sister. This accident resulted in the neighbor’s
sister’s death, though it was ruled an accidental homicide.
Witnesses report that Colleen took a pair of fancy shoes off the
feet of the corpse and immediately put them on her own feet.
Colleen defends her actions by claiming that an observer told
her to do this.
At the time of her arrest, Colleen’s blood tested positive for
opiates. Colleen claims that while traveling with three homeless
men, they unknowingly stumbled upon a field of poppies and
that before they knew it; the intoxicating aroma caused her to
pass out. Colleen claims not to have a drug problem. Colleen
states that all she wants to do now is go home and that she
misses her Aunt Emily.
CASE STUDY TWO: XANDER L.
Xander L
. is a 17-year-old African American male and documented gang
member. His prior juvenile adjudications include purse
snatching, breaking and entering, and drug possession. His first
juvenile adjudication occurred when he was 13 years old. He
has served a year of custody in the juvenile correctional facility
and has been placed on probation twice previously. His latest
arrest is for possession of a concealed weapon, to which he has
pled guilty.
Xander lives with his mother in the housing projects. He reports
no contact with his father. His mother presently works two jobs.
Although she is supportive of him, and Xander reports a close
relationship with his mother, she does not approve of his
conduct. In the past, she has reported him to the police. Xander
indicates that he has dropped out of high school, but would like
to get his general equivalency diploma to make his mother
proud.
