Millersburg V. Yoder's Argument

Darren DelPapa is a sixteen year old male who is currently on courtesy probation supervision in Portsmouth, for charges that occurred in Chesapeake. Charges before the Chesapeake Juvenile and Domestic Relations court were possession of drug paraphernalia, amended from possession of a controlled substance and a curfew citation. The charges were taken under advisement for a period of one year, and Darren was allowed to enroll in the Commonwealth Challenge program in Virginia Beach. He was ordered onto probation, at any time he was not in the Commonwealth Challenge program. Program requirements of the Commonwealth Challenge program do not allow individuals to be on probation as a condition of entry, hence the order of the court. Darren

Marc Creighton is being charged with section 222 (5)(a) under the Code. The unlawful act in question was trafficking of narcotics. “Traffic” in this instance is being defined as administering cocaine which is found under Schedule I of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (Then known as the Narcotic Control Act).

However that is not to say that there are changes being made. It has been shown that “governing bodies have managed drug use and addiction as a public health problem which requires treatment, counseling and medical interventions rather than incarceration”(Stevenson B. 2011) . One such act that assists drug offenders is the Drug Treatment Alternative to Prison (DTAP), this program was developed by Kings county District Attorney’s office in Brooklyn NY and was the first drug treatment diversion program in the country. What the program is directed towards is those non-violent drug offenders and diverting them towards community-based treatment facilities. It has high structure, long periods on intervention and flexibility. Those that qualify are individuals that are repeat felony offenders arrested in the area that face mandatory sentencing under the State’s second felony offender law and the addiction should be a contributing factor in their criminal activities. The end-state of the program is that “those who successfully complete the DTAP treatment are permitted to withdraw their guilty plea and have the case dismissed. Those who drop out or fail the program are brought back to court and sentenced on

The charges were taken under advisement for a period of one year, and Darren was allowed to enroll in the Commonwealth Challenge program in Virginia Beach. He was ordered onto probation, at any time he was not in the Commonwealth Challenge program. Program requirements of the Commonwealth Challenge program do not allow individuals to be on probation as a condition of entry, hence the order of the court. Darren reported to the Commonwealth Challenge on March 28, 2017. Within the first few days, there were so many fights and chaos, that the program called Darren’s guardians to come pick him up and take him home “until the situation calmed down.” Darren was “jumped” on at least two occasions and both he and the Freemans decided he should not return. Because Commonwealth Challenge is a “voluntary program,” he was not required to return to the program according to the Chesapeake probation officer.

While Miller had initially faced up to eight years in prison, he now faces up to one year in jail for the charges to which he pleaded guilty. Sentencing is scheduled for May 4.

It is respectfully recommended that the offender's probation is revoked and be sentenced to an appropriate period of consecutive state length incarceration.

The latest breaking news in The Democrat news is that Timothy L. Lee, from Fredericktown was sentenced to five years of probation following his guilty plea in Madison County Court in Dec. 17.

On Monday, June 20, I was not given any direct assignments as Liz was out for the day and Kathleen had finance meetings all day. That being said, I took the initiative to read over the case information of the pre-trial meetings and trials scheduled for Tuesday. This week’s pre-trial charges include: retail theft, operating without insurance, operating without a license, operating while suspended, improper turn, and failure to yield while emerging from an alley. After reading over the police reports and case information, I decided to make use of CCAP to see if the defendants had any more encounters with the law in other counties in Wisconsin. While some defendants did not have any record outside of Manitowoc, others had no record in Manitowoc, but an extensive record in other counties. This made me realize why it is so important that Liz makes use of CCAP before meeting with the defendants, because if she only sees their records in Manitowoc, she might give them a better offer for having a “clean record.” Overall, looking through the reports and histories of the defendants gives me an idea of how the defendants might behave and what kind of offers Liz might give them in the pre-trial meetings. As for the trials scheduled for Tuesday, both defendants have been charged of possession of THC. After looking through the case information, I actually recognized the cases as they had been two of the cases that were canceled earlier in the summer due to some conflict with the
