What is the name of your state?california
I have court on Monday for my son who violated his probation with underage drinking and out past curfew. He also found some pills and had them in his pocket when they searched him. They are also saying he started a fire in a dumpster. He has been in juvenile hall for just over a week. The district attorney is filing 2 more charges (which I think are for the pills and the fire) His public defender said the judge will ask me if there is anything I want to say in court. I want the judge to know my son is not a bad kid just made some bad choices and keeping him locked up is not what he needs. He is a excellent student and very smart he wants to join the military and he is the kind of kid that could be anything he wants. I think more time in juvenile hall will leave him exposed to people that will only influence him in the wrong way. Is there any advice on how to write a letter to best describe to the judge how important it is for him to be released and that he has a solid support unit with the family and grandparents to make sure he will stay on the right track?
