A Canterbury teen may be discharged without conviction after damaging 33 windows on 14 buses in Christchurch.

Appearing the Nga Hau e Wha marae this morning, 18-year-old Jack Dargan was given 100 hours community work over the vandalism. If he completes the work by June 28, the student will be discharged without a conviction.

The vandal has admitted causing the $2100 dollars worth of damage in an appearance last year, by scratching the windows as he rode on them.

What a pathetic joke sentence by another soft judge. Has the little angel paid to repair the damage his childish actions caused?

Well done judge, in effect you've just made vandalism legal.
