In re Sammy H.
After admitting to residential burglary (Pen. Code, 459), appellant Sammy H., age 16 at the time of the offense, was committed to the Tulare County Probation Youth Facility, a local boot camp, for 365 days. Five months prior, appellant admitted to arson (Pen. Code, 451, subd. (d)) and was placed on the Deferred Entry of Judgment Program, subject to standard probationary terms. Appellant now claims that the juvenile court abused its discretion by placing him at a boot camp without finding that less restrictive alternatives would be ineffective. For the following reasons, Court affirm.
