Show Notes
In Volusia County, Florida, a surge of juvenile threats against students has led to the arrest of at least five kids aged 10-15. The sheriffs office, led by Sheriff Mike Chitwood, has adopted a strict zero-tolerance policy, parading arrested juveniles in front of cameras and posting unedited videos on social media. The state attorneys team reviews each case individually, often through diversion programs with community service, anger management, or family counseling. Meanwhile, officials are focusing on prevention through school podcasts, public service announcements, and parental involvement in monitoring social media and teaching consequences.
