美国首都特区的联邦首席检察官周五宣布,其所在办公室计划针对青少年违反当地宵禁规定的家长采取行动,此举旨在遏制日益严重的“青少年聚众闹事”问题。

“遵纪守法的纳税人不应再为家长的失职买单,”特区联邦检察官珍妮·皮罗在周五的新闻发布会上表示。此次发布会旨在向媒体通报去年夏天启动的特朗普总统执法专项行动的成果,该行动旨在降低该市的暴力犯罪率。

“家长们:尽到你们的责任。否则我们将履行我们的职责,”她说道。

青少年聚众闹事已成为华盛顿特区的常见扰民事件,尤其是在海军码头滨水区等热门区域。这类涉及大量青少年的快闪式集会有时会升级为冲突,促使特区市长穆里尔·鲍泽在海军码头区域实施了一系列青少年宵禁规定:18岁以下人员需在晚上11点前回家。

皮罗表示,她的办公室计划依据当地法规第22-811条对家长提起诉讼,指控其“促成未成年人失范行为”,以解决这一问题。她的办公室无权就宵禁违规行为直接起诉青少年,这类案件由特区总检察长办公室负责处理。

“这并不妨碍我对家长提起诉讼,”皮罗在回答记者提问时说道。

The top federal prosecutor in the nation’s capital announced on Friday her office is planning to target parents if their teenagers violate the local curfew, in a move aimed at curbing the growing problem of “teen takeovers.”

“Law-abiding taxpayers should no longer have to pay for parental neglect,” D.C. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro said at a news conference on Friday. The presser was planned in order to update the media about the results of President Trump’s law enforcement surge that launched last summer to reduce violent crime in the city.

“Parents: Do your job. Or we will do ours,” she said.

Teen takeovers have become a frequent nuisance in Washington, D.C., particularly in popular parts of the city like the Navy Yard waterfront. At times, these flash mob-style gatherings involving large groups of teens have escalated, prompting D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser to impose a series of juvenile curfews in the Navy Yard area of 11 p.m. for those under the age of 18.

Pirro said her office intends to enforce local statute 22-811 against parents — contributing to the delinquency of a minor — in an effort to combat the problem. Her office is restricted from prosecuting the teens themselves for curfew violations, which are handled by the local attorney general’s office.

“That does not preclude me from bringing charges against the parents,” Pirro told reporters.
