HARTFORD A bipartisan group of lawmakers emerged from an afternoon meeting on juvenile crime at the state Capitol Wednesday with a conciliatory tone, and announced there’s agreement on how to address repeat offenders who commit serious offenses, including providing judges with more information about prior arrests.
The closed-door meeting came about a week after the hit-and-run death of a 53-year-old man in New Britain by an alleged 17-year-old driver of a stolen car, who police said had been arrested 13 times in less than four years, including on charges of assault with a knife and robbery.
