Medora, Indiana 3/20/2024
A video posted by Medora Community Schools on their social media pages has sparked concern and debate within the community. The video appears to show a student walking through the school parking lot, attempting to open car doors.
This incident raises questions about potential legal ramifications for the student's actions and the school's role in the situation.
Indiana Code 35-43-4-2.7 defines Unlawful Entry of a Motor Vehicle as entering a vehicle without permission to do so. If the student was attempting to enter these vehicles without the owner's consent, they could be charged with a crime.
Indiana Code 35-46-1-8 addresses Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor. This statute prohibits adults from knowingly encouraging or participating in acts that would be considered delinquent if committed by a minor. While the school's intent behind the video is unclear, it's important to consider whether posting the video on social media could be seen as contributing to the delinquency of the student involved.
