Yes, I'm kind of torn on this because making a list of kids for police to focus on can definitely lead to harassment and being charged with more serious crimes by association or by reputation in the absence of evidence. But compared to the typical policy of waiting until shoplifter has racked up felony levels of theft, prosecuting smaller crimes could have a less negative impact on life than a larger more permanent conviction. Not sure what was actually happening here though because the article doesn't have many details.
