Boy uses parents’ credit card for porn
April 26, 2007 - 8:56AM

A 15-year-old boy has been arrested for stealing his parents’ credit card while his father slept and using it for Internet pornography and phone sex, according to the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office.

The Crestview teen used the card on five occasions and racked up $196 in charges, a Sheriff’s Office arrest report stated.

He was arrested on April 19 and charged with fraudulent use of a credit card, which is a felony. Story

Ok so $200 in charges, most which can be credited. But now the kid could face a felony? Would you submit your child to the judicial system that *could* try him as an adult, end up paying court fees, possibly for an attorney, etc and possibly put into juvenile detention for seeking sexual enterainment? maybe his parents are bible thumpers Or maybe the kids been out of control and this was the final straw But I'll be damned...that seems harsh.
