Monmouth County is located in central New Jersey with a population of about 642,000 inhabitants. This large population gives rise to a variety of criminal offenses, including juvenile crimes. Over the past three years, the Office of the Monmouth County Prosecutor has prosecuted approximately 4,000 juveniles each year. Juvenile offenses are those offenses which would constitute crimes if committed by adults, but instead are deemed acts of delinquency, because they are committed by an individual who is under the age of 18. Juvenile offenses bring with it serious penalties for juveniles, and could result in a period of incarceration, high fines, community service, license revocation, and a criminal record. In Monmouth County, it is required that the juvenile obtain an attorney when he or she faces a formal court proceeding.
