In re M.A. CA6
M.A., a minor never previously before the juvenile court, admitted to robbing two people and carjacking another at gunpoint on separate occasions, as well as fleeing the scene of a collision after losing control of a stolen car. M.A. challenges the juvenile court’s order committing him to a county-run juvenile rehabilitation facility rather than his family’s custody at home, given the undisputed evidence of his exceptional qualities and the aberration his offenses represented. Because the court did not abuse its broad discretion in finding that M.A.’s need for rehabilitation and the severity of the offense warranted the placement, we affirm.
