More and more teen killers — blame NY’s Raise the Age law for cultivating crime
Police just arrested yet another teen homicide suspect, the latest grim reminder that Albany’s disastrous Raise the Age law is creating more young criminals. On Wednesday, cops nabbed a 17-year-old in connection with the killing of Javits Frimpong , the Bronx 15-year-old gunned down walking to school late last month. A Bronx judge recently set a $25,000 cash bail for Kalvin Veloz, 16, charged in the fatal shooting of Riley Billingslea , 15, this summer. Juvenile gun arrests have jumped 19% this year, and violent teen crime is far above its level before Raise the Age kicked in seven years ago. Crime’s way down thanks to Trump — Dems will fight to send it back up The law sought to protect 16- and 17-year-olds by making it near-impossible to try them in adult Criminal Court, but sending them to Family Court instead has meant little or no punishment even for violent crimes. So kids who might learn a lesson after a low-level mistake don’t — and are more likely to make worse ones, all too often until someone ends up dead.
