In his two and a half years as Bernalillo County District Attorney, Sam Bregman said his office has linked 70 different homicides to 53 juveniles.

In Espa帽ola, with less than 11,000 residents, police arrested two 15-year-olds, armed with rifles, who terrorized a homeless shelter where people were sleeping and fired multiple rounds over their heads 鈥渇or no apparent reason,鈥� said Police Chief Mizel A. Garcia. Luckily, he said, no one was hurt.

In southern New Mexico, three juveniles were arrested in connection with a mass shooting at a Las Cruces park March 21 in which three people died and 15 others were shot 鈥� 鈥渁ll perpetrated by teenagers,鈥� said Las Cruces Police Department Police Chief Jeremy Story. A 20-year-old was also charged in the shooting.

The evidence of the worsening problem has been increasingly clear to Bregman and top New Mexico law enforcement officers who converged in Albuquerque on Tuesday. In the meantime, they contend the state Legislature has failed to address the rising crime rate among juveniles, violent juveniles in particular.

鈥淲e are facing a juvenile crime crisis,鈥� Bregman said Tuesday at a news conference. 鈥淚t鈥檚 one that continues to get worse every single day in New Mexico. There are teens or younger who are committing crimes all over the state and are getting away with it because they know they can.鈥�

鈥淚鈥檝e said before and I鈥檒l say it again, that it isn鈥檛, unfortunately, until they are charged with murder, that they finally face any real consequences. And then it鈥檚 too late,鈥� Bregman said. 鈥淭his isn鈥檛 just a statistic. People are dying. These are real victims.鈥�

Bregman, who is running for governor, had the same concerns last October when he proposed a slate of legislative changes to the juvenile code, which hasn鈥檛 been updated in decades.

鈥淥ur leaders in Santa Fe,鈥� Bregman said, 鈥渨ith the notable exception of the governor, have been tone-deaf to the crisis on the ground.鈥�

For instance, a bill that set tougher penalties for selling a firearm to a minor 鈥渄idn鈥檛 even get one hearing in a 60-day session.鈥� None of Bregman鈥檚 proposed legislation passed this year. So he鈥檚 trying again.

鈥淲e are now giving these proposals to every single legislator so each and every one of them have no excuse not to have a robust debate about the future of our children. There is no excuse now not to try. Just trying. That鈥檚 what I鈥檓 asking the Legislature to do. Just try.鈥�

New Mexico鈥檚 chief public defender, Ben Baur, said through a spokeswoman, 鈥淲e all agree that we are seeing heart-breaking violence involving young people, guns and social media, and that people are being hurt. We absolutely need to find solutions, but these proposals basically amount to 鈥榮end kids to prison early and often.鈥�

鈥淭his won鈥檛 prevent crime. It won鈥檛 make them grow into better kids. It will just make them better criminals. It鈥檚 not 鈥榰pdating鈥� the juvenile code, it鈥檚 taking it back to old, disproven ideas.鈥�

On Tuesday, flanked by police chiefs from Farmington, Espa帽ola, Las Cruces, the state Department of Public Safety and the Bernalillo County Sheriff鈥檚 Office, Bregman said he wanted to show, 鈥淭hese violent incidents are happening in every corner of New Mexico.鈥�

Story, of Las Cruces, said, 鈥淜ids are committing crime after crime with no real consequences or accountability. I have six kids that have been arrested 11 or more times as a juvenile. I have 37 additional kids who have been arrested between six and 10 times. That shouldn鈥檛 be able to happen in a system that鈥檚 functioning correctly.鈥�

Las Cruces police, in some cases, 鈥渉ave been able to charge and convict nearly a dozen juveniles with a federal offense. Now, for most of those kids, that鈥檚 the first time they鈥檝e ever had a meaningful consequence or accountability for their actions,鈥� he said.

鈥淭here鈥檚 a clear gap in our system in holding these juveniles accountable. We鈥檙e failing miserably in this state,鈥� said Jason Bowie, secretary of the state Department of Public Safety.

鈥淒uring town halls the governor has hosted (around the state) 鈥� the message has been consistent. People in these communities are afraid,鈥� Bowie said.

Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen asked lawmakers to 鈥渟top forgetting the victim.鈥�

鈥淲e have heard from numerous investigations,鈥� Allen added, 鈥渁bout juveniles that not only don鈥檛 care, but they actually laugh about their crime and say, 鈥淲ow, I can鈥檛 believe I shot that person. I have no care in the world.鈥�

Compounding the problem is that the state has just three juvenile detention facilities, prompting some of the more rural law enforcement agencies to travel to Bernalillo County to house violent juvenile offenders awaiting resolution of their cases.

But Bernalillo County鈥檚 juvenile detention facility is at capacity, housing 75 juveniles waiting to be tried or awaiting sentencing. Of those, 27 are in for murder, Bregman said. And typically it is the county that is responsible for such facilities.

Farmington Police Chief Steve Hebbe said juvenile crime has an impact on law enforcement recruiting efforts, and public perception of how well police can protect New Mexicans.

鈥淭his is a sign that the public is losing confidence that justice will be delivered,鈥� Hebbe said.

Bregman said he plans on lobbying legislators in advance of next year鈥檚 30-day session to enact proposals that include expanding the list of crimes that qualify for prosecution as a serious youthful offender and a youthful offender; extending the jurisdiction of juvenile crime to age 25 and allowing the use of juvenile records in condition of release hearings for some adult offenders.

鈥淲e need action,鈥� Bregman said. 鈥淲e can be the leader in this nation when it comes to the explosion of juvenile crime, but we need to change our juvenile laws to match the times 鈥�. I know one thing, what we鈥檙e doing now certainly isn鈥檛 working.鈥�
