I’m curious…what should the judge have done?
(Also, why the scare quotes for teens?) I see this was done by the “news” source, and you probably wouldn’t have any idea.

Did you see the photo in the article of the guy who was attacked by these teens? What do you think should happen to people that cause someone to suffer an attack like that? Should they be kept in custody after proving themselves to be so violent? Or, should they just be released as if to deny what they've done or that they could do it again to someone else?

Did every single one of the gang lay hands on Mister Coristine?
The news didn’t mention the exact nature of the charges, maybe it’ll get pled to “breaking curfew” for these tykes?

A judge ordered the release of one of the teens to a youth shelter and the other to home confinement, a source familiar with the proceedings told News4. They’re both subject to curfews, weekly drug testing and electronic monitoring.​

Sounds better all around than jail awaiting trial.

While the 19-year-old victim looks badly assaulted in the photo. It is a bloodied nose and nothing else evident. The person (or persons) who hit him in the face and bloodied his nose (possibly breaking it) certainly committed a violent assault, but don't let that photo make you think he was beaten senseless. Have they IDed the face puncher?

Is that what it takes to hold people accountable for their violent actions?

If you're going to charge, say, 3 people with violent actions, you should be able to demonstrate that each of the three (3) committed a violent action.

So, yes.

Then it's ok to do that to someone, as long as it "only" results in a broken nose (as far as you know)?

Why is releasing him better than keeping a violent person in jail where he is no longer attacking people? We've already seen during Biden's administration what happens when violent criminals are captured and then released right away. It encouraged them and others to keep committing violence, and people died as a result.

How did you get that from "certainly committed a violent assault"? Nothing in @Hans Blaster's post suggest "it's ok".

Not what I said. What I said is that you shouldn't amplify the scale of the attack based on that picture, because all we see in it is a shirtless guy with a bloody nose. Given that he was attacked it is reasonable to assume that it was one of his attackers (perhaps more ) who bloodied his nose. It is also reasonable to speculate that it might be broken.

We have no idea how many of the roving gang of teens had any physical contact with Bloody Nose. That injury could easily arise from one decent punch to the face, so perhaps it was one attacker and others hanging about (perhaps taunting or something). Or maybe two held him down while everyone else took a punch. (All are assaulter.) We don't know. We need formal charges and (preferably) video evidence. Let it work its way through the courts.

What we don't have is evidence that anyone who caused the physical harm was released. (Unless you have specific charging information, which would be useful to know.)

Actually that’s not correct. Encouraging the act, aiding and abetting, conspiracy, etc. are also crimes.

I knew someone would bring that up. Yes, that's true. But unless you are the puncher, you did not punch.

But you can still get charged with the main crime just like a look out or a getaway driver can be held just as guilty as those that committed the actual crime.

What was amplified? The guy was attacked by these thugs and we have a photo of what the victim looked like after these thugs were done with him.
If he was black and his assailants were white, I'd bet Trump's presidency that the narrative would be a bit different than what we're hearing from the left-leaning press and those who parrot their narrative.

That doesn't absolve them of being responsible. Being simply a getaway driver doesn't mean a person isn't responsible for a bank robbery either.
EDIT: Hentenza, you beat me to it!
