She said she also blames the Jeep owner's boyfriend for following her son and calling police.

“He had no right to chase my son, which it could have been a situation. Maybe it could have been just a joyride down the street. Maybe he wanted to go farther than he felt like walking,” she said.


Wow

Maybe it could have been just a joyride down the street. Maybe he wanted to go farther than he felt like walking,” she said. But the owner of the Jeep, Melissa Leon, told Channel 4 Action News she left her keys in her purse, meaning the boy must have gone through her things to find them. “She’s telling me I’m irresponsible? You didn’t even know where your child was. Where were you?” Leon said. “I worked four jobs while I went to school, approximately 100 hours a week. I had bought my car (with) cash that was mine." Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Robin Mungo said leaving keys in the car may be irresponsible, but not against the law. “There is no law that says you cannot keep your keys in your vehicle. Now is that careless? Yes it is, but it is not against the law,” said Mungo.

Without trying to be a dick, why's this posted now? To illustrate the lack of responsibility on the mothers part?

The owners of the Jeep are racist. The young man was only trying to get to a job interview.

The woman has a point, even if the keys were in the car in a purse. Leaving a purse invites crime.

Also, the man shouldn't have followed. He should have stayed put and called the police. No vigilante justice.

The driver was 14. 14. He wasn't some hardened criminal.

Irresponsible mother is obviously an Obmabot who would never take responsibility for any of her misdeeds or those of her son.

GTFO. Stealing a fricking car isn't just "something teenagers do."

So it's everyone else's wrongdoing except for the kid himself? Makes a lot of sense...
