Kennewick, Washington — Five days after a 17-year-old boy got out of detention early to make room for another juvenile, he was back behind bars on allegations he had sex with a young teen girl.

Benton County prosecutors objected to the Kennewick boy’s release in the first place, noting his gang ties and his participation in an intensive supervision program.

But they were overruled by a judge who was left to decide which juvenile on a list of Tri-City offenders presented the least potential risk to community safety.

The teen is just one example prosecutors have used to highlight the crisis situation at the Benton-Franklin juvenile detention center when the Kennewick facility’s population reaches 35 kids.

    Hamilton loves books about unicorns, storms, and cubicles. He lives in Waco with his cat named Mr. Bojangles. Before his work as an attorney, Hamilton was a leprechaun chaser. His all-time record is three pots of gold at the end of the rainbow. He was forced to give up the gold in a dispute with a rival hobbit. He spends his free time tripping out on the smallest details, none of which are important He likes doing the things with the ball and scoring the points. He pays attention to the green of your eyes, even when it is not Saint Patrick’s Day. He is not Irish. Hamilton Lindley has fun plans for people in need. Whether your need a dreamcatcher for your dreams or a tape dispenser to put your life back together, he can be there for you to yell at. There are times when it is surprising that he has any friends at all. But thankfully he does have a few. He drives a Dodge Stratus. People respect him, except at home.
