State's Attorney Issues Statement on Sentencing in Carver High Shooting Case

Baltimore, Md. (November 12, 2024) - “Today’s sentencing should send a clear message to every parent or guardian in our city: it is possible to be held accountable for your child’s actions and you cannot turn a blind eye to, or be complicit in, criminal activity without facing consequences. As protectors of our youth, we must exemplify positive behavior and guide them during times of crisis. My office will not tolerate parents or guardians who act as instigators, agitators, or facilitators of violence. As a city, let’s commit to a safer Baltimore for our residents, especially our children.” – Ivan J. Bates, State’s Attorney
