Caught! Juveniles Confess to Bus Vandalism

A very brief e-mail from the Washtenaw County Sheriff Office this morning indicated that deputies interviewed two (2) suspects and received full confessions.  Both of the individuals are juveniles—so they will not be releasing their names at this time.

Ultimately, it will be up to the prosecutor’s office what the charges will be and how they will be charged, dependent upon their age, which has not been released.  These individuals could face felony charges if the value of damage is at least $1,000, or if they have one or more prior convictions of this offense.  Based on the very brief estimates yesterday for the cost of the repair to the buses, the tow truck needed, the extra time of mechanics, it has been suggested that this will reach a felony level.  The district nor the sheriff’s office have released the full extent of the damage at this time.

The Mirror will report more information as it becomes available.

Nice work WCSD deputies!
