Case Study One: Colleen M.

Colleen M. is a 15-year-old Caucasian girl. She has lived in the state for her entire life. Her father abandoned the family when she was an infant and her mother is currently in a drug rehabilitation facility. Colleen lives on a farm with her aunt. Although she has no prior incidents with the law, she admits to having run away from her aunt in the past, though always returning on her own.

Colleen’s current trouble is centered on a neighbor’s dispute about her dog. After the dog bit the neighbor, the neighbor attempted to take the dog to animal control. When the neighbor later found Colleen and the dog trespassing on her property, the neighbor verbally threatened to “get them.” The neighbor apparently set fire to a scarecrow on her property to emphasize her point. At this point, Colleen threw a nearby bucket of liquid on the neighbor. The liquid was later determined to be a pesticide. The pesticide burned the neighbor’s skin on contact and triggered an extreme allergic reaction, resulting in her death. Colleen M. was charged with involuntary manslaughter and adjudicated delinquent by the court. Colleen M. claims that she was simply attempting to douse the fire.

A few weeks prior, Colleen had been a passenger of a motor home that collided with a vehicle driven by the neighbor’s sister. This accident resulted in the neighbor’s sister’s death, though it was ruled an accidental homicide. Witnesses report that Colleen took a pair of expensive shoes off the feet of the corpse and immediately put them on her own feet. Colleen defends her actions by claiming that an observer told her to do this.

At the time of her arrest, Colleen’s blood tested positive for opiates. Colleen claims that while traveling with three homeless men, they unknowingly stumbled upon a field of poppies and that before they realized what was happening, the aroma caused her to faint. Colleen claims to not have a drug problem. Colleen states that all she wants to do is go home and that she misses her Aunt Emily.

His current arrest is for possession of a concealed weapon, to which he has pled guilty.

Xander lives with his mother in the housing projects. He reports no contact with his father. His mother presently works two jobs. Although she is supportive of him and Xander reports a close relationship with his mother, she does not approve of his conduct. She has, in the past, reported him to the police. Xander indicates that he has dropped out of high school, but would like to get his G.E.D. to make his mother proud.
