Juvenile Arrest A Matter Of Public Record

I get calls from time to time from parents who are angry because we printed the name of their underage son or daughter in the paper. This is not the honor roll or 4-H results I'm talking about. I'm talking about police reports - crime, arrests and the like. There seems to be a misconception that it is illegal for newspapers to print the names of juveniles. That is patently false.There is simply no such law.And there never has been.Maybe I shouldn't say never, but there hasn't been in the 23 years I've been involved in journalism. But nonetheless, lots of people think that we are bound by law not to print names of juveniles who commit crimes. (They don't seem to care if we print the names of juveniles who score touchdowns.) But whether there is a law or not, people still wonder why in the world a newspaper would want to print the name of a juvenile who was arrested. Well, frankly, there are a couple pretty compelling reasons.

Police Recover More Stolen Goods

Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department Friday executed a search warrant on a second residence in connection with an earlier theft arrest.

Mark is the brother of Brian Slone who was arrested Thursday on charges of burglary, theft and possession of precursors to manufacture methamphetamine.The Thursday arrest came after police responded to a domestic disturbance at Mark Slone's Diamond Lake residence. Information gained during that investigation led officers to search Brian Slone's residence where more than $60,000 in construction tools and equipment was recovered. In the Friday search at Mark Slone's home, police reported finding anhydrous ammonia and Sudafed¨, both ingredients in methamphetamine.Police also recovered several thousand dollars worth of construction tools and equipment believed to be stolen.

A warrant for Ryan Miller was issued in late January, though police have not yet been successful in serving it. Miller allegedly is involved with the construction-site burglary ring that led to the arrests of Mark and Brian Slone in January. Police recovered more than $60,000 worth of stolen constuction equipment, tools and building materials from the Slones' residences. Miller allegedly was a house guest at Mark Slone's Diamond Lake residence. According to a police press release, more items have been recovered at a Diamond Lake residence.It is unclear if the residence referred to is Slone's.No police were available for clarification.
