SB 1008 would change the way the state handles juvenile prosecution, sentencing and imprisonment in several ways: • It would keep youth accused of crimes committed as a juvenile in the youth justice system and require a special hearing with a judge before being moved to the adult justice system. • Convicted youth would receive a “Second Look” hearing halfway through their sentence to determine their progress and with the possibility of serving the remainder of their sentence under community- based supervision. • Requiring an additional review before transferring an incarcerated youth to adult prison with the possibility of serving out the remainder of a sentence in community-based supervision. • Eliminating life without parole sentences for all youth offenders and offering a chance of parole after 15 years of imprisonment. Dana admits to being confl icted about where she stands on the changes. “I love my brother, and I am deeply hurt by his actions – our family is irreparably changed,” she said. Victim’s rights are a major component of her misgivings, but there are societal issues – such as how the convicted will be transitioned back into their communities – at play as well. Dana’s list of concerns starts with victims being forced to ramp up their grieving processes. WRECK, OFFENDER, continued from Page A1 continued from Page A1 it ran the red light at Cherry Ave. NE and collided with the Toyota traveling southeast. All three of the Toyota occu- pants, Trinity Watt,19, of Salem, Madison Capobianco,19, of Salem and Makayla Tryon,18, of Keizer, were pronounced deceased at the scene. All three were former students at Barbara Roberts High School in Salem. The 25-year-old driver of the Jeep, Juan Carlos Rodri- guez Palacios of Salem, and a passenger remained at the scene until they were transported to Salem Health for treatment. Rodriguez Palacios was later arrested. On Tuesday, June 4, he was arraigned on three counts of fi rst degree manslaughter, one count of assault and one count of driving under the in- fl uence of intoxicants. Rodriguez Palacios’ blood alcohol content was 0.239 per- cent when tested, almost three times the legal limit of 0.08 percent. Rodriguez Palacios has had a previous arrest for drunk driv- ing, but charges were dismissed after he completed a diversion program. 3893 COMMERCIAL ST SE Saturday, June 15 Keizer/Salem Area Seniors Saturday Night Dance and Potluck featuring music by Crossfi re, admission $5. 7 p.m.- 10 p.m. at 930 Plymouth Drive N.E., Keizer The Elsinore Theatre will stage Paquita performed by ballet dancers at 4 p.m. at The Historic Elsinore Theatre in Salem.

Special conditions of Shupp’s release include prohibitions against frequenting malls, parks, campgrounds, places where minors congregate, contact with minors and engaging in and completing sex offender treatment. “In instances like this, our Community Corrections Division is faced with the very diffi cult challenge of fi nding appropriate housing for clients differently,” Dana said. “He was also removed from his life, and placed in a new one. I think it is hard to feel the depth of loss, and therefore understanding and empathy, that his actions have caused when he doesn't live it.” The other vein of concern on Dana’s part is what would happen to Brett if he did manage to secure community supervision in lieu of incarceration – a defi nite possibility under the terms of the laws if Gov. Brown signs it. If approved, Oregon can tout following best practices when it comes to youth offenders, but there is nothing in the legislation adding to support services for convicted youth upon release, much less funding to bolster existing programs. “I do truly sometimes wonder what goes through Brett's head, when he makes appeals, at exactly what he thinks would happen if he were released tomorrow, I would be concerned for his safety both from people who do and do not know him. I don't think people would be kind to him, and I think that drives [people] down the spiral of recidivism sometimes when no one is kind, there is no support and no where to live,” Dana said. Social media adds to those woes. For evidence, look no further than your own Facebook or Twitter stream and count the number of instances where “justice served” and other more dehumanizing comments appear in relation to the perpetrators of crime. When Keizer residents received notice that a sex offender was released to a transition home last week, there were calls for returns to public execution on Facebook. On a more personal level, Dana is concerned with raising her own family and not wanting Brett to show up and encouraging the kids to “think he’s cool.” “What pains me is that while a lot of parents experience their children's realization of how cruel life can be, and how devastating others’ choices can be, I have to break that to my children from within. Instead of them coming home and telling me about something and having that discussion, someday I will have to open that box and say, ’This is what happened to my mother, and your grandfather, and what an impact it had on me.’” She would like to be able to have that discussion on her own terms, but Brett could be released to community supervision under the new rules in as few as 10 years. “I cannot fathom having that discussion with a 12-year- old,” Dana said. There’s also an outstanding question of what is being done to deter criminal acts before they happen. “My parents tried on multiple occasions to get Brett into intervention programs – targeted at drugs – but either socioeconomic, racial demographics or credit defi ciency meant he never qualifi ed,” she said. The passage of the bill out of the legislature gave Dana pause for another reason, especially given that Oregon voters approved the original sentencing guidelines with a strong turnout and support. “It was appropriate to turn that vote back (her emphasis) to the people. It appears that our legislature doesn't believe we are equipped to handle that,” she said. who often times are not openly welcomed back into the community,” said Landers. Neighbors of the property have reported seeing Shupp leave the house in womens clothing, but Landers could not comment on those allegations. In addition to being supervised by a parole offi cer (PO), there are supervisory staff in place at the home where he and others are living. “The supervision comes in the form of regularly checking in with his PO and there being a specifi c location he is expected to be residing at, his PO also has the ability to be in contact with staff at this house,” Landers said. Treatment in sex offender cases focuses on the underlying causes that lead someone to reoffend. “In addition to promoting accountability, we seek out various treatment options and work to address anti- social attitudes, values, beliefs, peer associations and other areas which may lead to an increased risk to re-offend,” Landers said. Marion County and local police offi cers notify and attempt to work with the neighbors in the area and provide public notifi cations, not to stoke fears, but under the belief that an informed public makes the situation safer for everyone. sudoku looking back in the KT 5 YEARS AGO Debate still noisy over tow trucks Friday, June 14 Salem-Keizer Volcanoes season opener vs Boise Hawks.

Straw Hat Dance at Keizer/Salem Area Seniors, 930 Plymouth Drive NE. , starting at 9 a.m. and followed by a lunch at 11:15 a.m. Being thrust into the justice system and the grieving process at the same time did her no favors, but she describes it now as something that “comes in waves.” “Did I miss my mother, do I still? Of course. But did I anticipate that every time my daughter smiled, or had a toddler-like day that I would be catapulted back to what we would have had? No.” Those undulating currents of grief are not reserved for victims of crime, and Dana expects her response will change with time, but asking anyone to speed up such a complicated emotional cycle in an already complicated time is a tall order, she said. “I am not in that camp of throw away the key – I'm really not. I just don't know how the severe reduction in sentence over 6-9 months before true ‘adulthood’ is really accomplishing the intended goal, particularly if we aren't addressing gainful employment and living situations,” Dana said. Another troubling area of the new guidelines is what will constitute taking responsibility for one’s crimes and rehabilitation. It’s also unclear whether victims would have a say in the hearings that could commute sentences to community-based supervision. Dana stays in contact with Brett while serving his sentence, but says even she is uncertain whether he’s come to grips with the magnitude of his crimes. “Brett continues to act as if the rules do not apply to him, whether those be institutional rules or social expectations. He is charming, and what I'm looking for is not lip service but a full scale turn-the- other-way-and-live-your-life- THIS WEEK’S MOVIE TIMES The debate over tow trucks parking in Keizer neighborhoods heated up once again Monday.
