The two pictures MV Voice have posted are next to useless. Other newspapers covered this story yesterday and did a significantly better job at it. There is full video with much better pictures of the criminals. MV Voice is a day late and about $500 short on this article.

Obviously the girls are protecting the boys since they won't tell the police who they are. Please press any and all charges against the girls and reject any plea odeals. They have no remorse and absolutely deserve the harshest penalty available.

Yes, the pics are useless to most, but someone who knows these people better than the average commenter does will likely recognize them, even if its from the smallest thing. Also the parents for sure would know. It's just a matter of if they are going to report it.
Good picture or not, if it was my kid in those pics I'd recognize him in a second.

Stupid kids...anyone seeing even the still photos would recognize them, and definitely in the video, even with the hoodie, but I would be surprised if the families of these kids read the newspaper. Punks.

Is it me or is it just plain stupid to have your packages left on your front porch. I simply acquired a post office box. There's even a way to get UPS to deliver to it as well.

I guess if you are in certain neighborhoods, with little observation by others, then yes it can be risky. Personally, I've done it for over 40 years with no issue at all. Knowing what I know now, I would feel stupid to have had to deal with a PO box all those years for nothing.
