Amid public safety concerns, some lawmakers are critical of juvenile crime reforms

During a townhall Monday, Baltimore County leaders heard from residents and several public safety concerns in Towson, including juvenile crime. While lawmakers acknowledge that local leaders are working to address the issue, some point the finger toward Annapolis, and legislation they argue will make it harder for juveniles to be held accountable.
"The police are doing what they can, but unfortunately the politicians in Annapolis have made their job harder," said Delegate Kathy Szeliga, who represents Baltimore County.

AI GeneratedBaltimore County residents expressed deep frustration over juvenile crime and a perceived lack of accountability during a recent town hall. While the Department of Juvenile Services (DJS) claims crime stats are down and emphasizes intervention, critics and Republican lawmakers argue that new laws in Annapolis have created a \"revolving door\" for young offenders.
