Why?...Update

I was talking to a Policeman who I know today, and we were talking about what had happened at the church the previous week. It turns out that the have caught the culprits for the damage...2 girls! and that the damage in total to all cars was......£24,000! I was quite lost for words. As a mother of 2 girls I give them a row if they even go across someone else's garden(as our street is open planned) I would like to think that the girls responsible for this will be dealt with appropriately but something tells me our lenient law system will let us all down even the girls in question, because if we cannot get over to them the seriousness of their actions and what consequences this will have...what chance do they have of a "happy ever after?"
