An official familiar with the investigation told ABC News that the suspect spends vacation time in the Crawford Pond area each summer with his family.
Maine teen arrested for killing of paddleboarder at Crawford Pond, police say
question for Anyone familiar with the area around Crawford Pond - are there timeshares or privately owned homes around the pond or both? Because ATM I am thinking his family owns a summer home on the pond if they come each summer.
Also, I am unfamiliar with Maine law but it seems as if the young man can be bound over for trying as an adult but the juvenile court is the one that makes the determination if the juvenile can be tried as an adult
D. The Juvenile Court shall consider the following factors in deciding whether to bind a juvenile over for prosecution as an adult:
(1) Seriousness of the crime: the nature and seriousness of the offense with greater weight being given to offenses against the person than against property; whether the offense was committed in an aggressive, violent, premeditated or intentional manner;
(2) Characteristics of the juvenile: the record and previous history of the juvenile; the age of the juvenile; the juvenile's emotional attitude and pattern of living;
(3) Public safety: whether the protection of the community requires commitment of the juvenile for a period longer than the greatest commitment authorized; whether the protection of the community requires commitment of the juvenile to a facility that is more secure than any dispositional alternative under section 3314; and
(4) Dispositional alternatives: whether future criminal conduct by the juvenile will be deterred by the dispositional alternatives available; whether the dispositional alternatives would diminish the gravity of the offense. [PL 2015, c. 409, §1 (AMD).]
E. The Juvenile Court shall bind a juvenile over for prosecution as an adult if it finds:
(1) That there is probable cause to believe that a juvenile crime has been committed that would constitute murder or a Class A, Class B or Class C crime if the juvenile involved were an adult and that the juvenile to be bound over committed it; and
(2) After a consideration of the seriousness of the crime, the characteristics of the juvenile, the public safety and the dispositional alternatives in paragraph D, that:
(a) If the State has the burden of proof, the State has established by a preponderance of the evidence that it is appropriate to prosecute the juvenile as if the juvenile were an adult; or
(b) If the juvenile has the burden of proof, the juvenile has failed to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that it is not appropriate to prosecute the juvenile as if the juvenile were an adult. [PL 2015, c. 409, §2 (AMD).]
