Juvenile Delinquency in Outagamie, WI

Unfortunately, in many areas of the Outagamie County, juvenile delinquency crimes are on the rise. There are many reasons for the increase in youth offenders. The juvenile sentence in Wisconsin often depends on the severity of the crime, the number of offenses, and other family matters.

In 2017, a total of 772 juvenile cases were reported for every 100,000 people age 10 to adulthood in the jurisdiction of Outagamie County. Of that total, 62% of those proceedings were delinquencies which equaled 480 court cases. Another 12% were dependency cases that accounted for 90 of the juvenile cases.

A lot of counties, including, Outagamie County, are focusing on family health and relationships rather than punishment for juvenile crimes. Future Outagamie County juvenile delinquency statistics will show whether or not this approach is working.
