A Bashor Children’s Home teenager was sentenced for her role in an incident, last October, at the alternative home.
It’s 14 years for the Bashor escapee who attacked a worker and resisted law enforcement.
While that may seem a stiff sentence for the 16-year-old girl, the Elkhart County Circuit Court judge said her history of violent outbursts is what led him to his decision.
The judge referenced several incidents that happened while the teen was placed at Bashor, Elkhart County Juvenile Detention Center and D.C.S.
The Goshen News reports she has seven other referrals to juvenile court and many of the batteries or thefts were against caregivers at those locations.
