Maybe the little turd-burgler would've gotten scared straight by this minor offense before evolving into something more major ... Re: the parents' unwillingness to help the kid... It may be laziness/nonchalance, but it may also be that they wanted the kid to be arrested b/c this wasn't the first time.
