And how is he being treated like everyone else? This is hardly his first run in with the law. He is now facing 22 charges, 5 being felonies, and he was let out over night... And by the way, why is he stealing credit cards and finding the time to commit so many crimes with his friends? He is an 18 year old with a new baby. Does he not have job??
