i do not think the juveniles actions are right by any means and do have to say i have to agree that something should be done now before worse happens. i may have over looked it but i did not see the age of the kid. with my experience in this feild...juveniles and adults who commit arson are two way different categories. juveniles do not start fires for the same reason adults do...with juveniles...there is an underlying issue or issues (ie...family problems, being picked on, excitement, curiousity...ect..)...with adults the crime is more violent (ie...domestic disturbances, robberies, insurance fraud, concealment of murder...ect..) what this juvenile needs is help before it is too late......that is just my 2 cents.....

Make him a firefighter with no pay, let him see the destructive nature of fire day in and day out. After he see's a few bodies maybe then it will hit home.
