What are possible consequences for 10 year old child being charged for 3rd degree arson in MN stateMy 10 yearold child set a fire, and might get third degree arson and charged with a felony. What does that mean and how come the other children there are not charged and the child who instigated the hole thing did not even get questioned? Attorney answers (1)

It is difficult to know what happened in particular case, especially not being an attorney repsenting someone in the case. I am not sure what the minimum age for a juvenile delinquency petition in Minnesota is, but I have not yet seen a case against a 10-year-old. I believe Wisconsin can go after 10-year-olds now. The best thing to do would be to get a good criminal-juvenile defense lawyer, like me, involved to help. Avoid letting him speak to police without legal counsel.
