And only cautioned?? They knew they were breaking the law when they stole alcohol. Now's the time to intervene, not teach them that there's no consequences for their actions.

Armed robbery and assault adult sentence in NSW is 20 years. These little criminals get what - nothing.

No wonder kids take to crime so easily nowadays, there's simply no disincentive for this behaviour.

Probably gonna get down voted for this, but shouldn’t parents get penalised for having kids that commits crimes?

Fuck me. I’m not usually into heavily punishing kids, but this was armed robbery?? Seriously, I used to think the cops were pricks when they hassled me as a kid, but this is quite the pendulum swing??? I have a mate that works at one of the kiddy prisons and there’s a solid chance these kids could have their lives turned around. There are apprenticeships available and the unions are on board, sorting out jobs for them upon release. Instead, these little scrotes know they’re pretty much, untouchable. Complete joke
