年仅13岁的英格兰小男孩查利•米切尔拥有一张天使般纯洁的面孔,然而他在周围邻居眼中却是一个不折不扣的「少年魔王」。由于犯下纵火、诈骗、打骂老人、入室盗窃等多达100项罪行,英国「反社会行为规则」(ASBO)委员会日前对查利下达禁令,未来2年中他在没有大人监护的情况下,不得擅自出行、夜间外出、饮酒等。一旦违反,他将被警方逮捕并依法惩办。据悉,针对低龄的未成年人施以如此严厉的处罚,在英国尚属首例。7 Y; z% F* g1 \7 \+ g- [" |* T

据报导,查利•米切尔家住英格兰普利茅斯市埃福德区,今年1月刚刚年满13岁。别看他满脸稚气,身高仅1米37,却是让街坊四邻人见人怕的「少年魔王」。据当地警方介绍,翘课、酗酒对于查利来说是家常便饭,此外,他曾多次打骂和威胁老人,潜入教堂、商店和民宅盗窃东西。更可恨的是,查利还经常破坏花园等公共设施,甚至放火焚烧邻居的房屋。) h8 i* P: }- c" q

曾有一次,他伸手松开邻家一辆崭新汽车的手闸,然后眼睁睁看着它一路下滑撞向路边停著的另一辆汽车。不过,长著一张「天使面孔」的他,最拿手的莫过于诈骗了。据一位熟知内情的邻居介绍:「他(查利)老早就表现出行骗的‘天分’。他经常凭著一个编造出来的感人故事,哄得路人慷慨解囊。」据粗略统计,过去几年中,小查利犯下的斑斑劣迹竟多达100项! 5 }) ?5 r& U4 e( s + Y, K, R* g. h3 ?7 e$ {9 _2 F法律也曾拿他没辙 * r/ S E/ }9 }* y7 h7 e3 E, D# r8 b. A: ^- R9 s7 o6 g
虽然邻居对查利早已烦不胜烦,然而每当有人欲将其扭送司法机关法办之时,小家伙总是做出一副鬼脸耍赖:「你能把我怎么样?」毕竟,他还只有13岁,属于未成年人,就连威严的法律也对他无能为力。 ! X) H+ h5 W# r ' n8 N/ V3 f" T小查利原本生活在一个幸福的家庭,除了溺爱他的父母,家中还有14岁的哥哥丹尼尔和6岁的弟弟哈里。对于儿子翘课、抽烟、酗酒,查利的父亲、35岁的马丁•米切尔从来不闻不问。去年11月,小查利终因「不服管教」被所在中学扫地出门。可是他的父母却将自己的责任推得一干二净,表示他们的家教没有问题,否则家中其余2个儿子为何没有变坏。在母亲琳达看来,小查利的「行为出轨」全因同校几个年长的坏孩子,自家的「好儿子」正是在后者的教唆下才变坏的。 # Y, l' l( B9 h# `6 ~, z; L' I$ R" l
无良少年「一夜成名」 5 {2 w3 w, y6 Z / \) F. _: v" N/ ~3月22日,普利茅斯地方法院向查利发出了一条「反社会行为规则」(ASBO)禁令,并且出于维护公共利益的考虑,一反常态地将这名未成年人的大名公布于众。根据该禁令,未来2年中,查利在没有家长陪伴的情况下,不得擅自外出、夜间出行,不得喝酒和点火,不得宣誓,不得与其它流氓同伙来往,不得向他人和建筑物投掷东西,未经他人同意,不得闯入他人住宅和花园。该禁令同时意味著,一旦查利违反了上述种种规定,员警将有权将其当场逮捕、关禁闭,并且送往司法机关法办。5 \! j8 q$ r- Z
