Parents of thugs in 'teen takeovers' may face fines — and even jail time, says Jeanine Pirro
MAY 15, 2026
The teen takeovers have included online flash mobs.
The parents of teens creating chaos on Washington, D.C., streets may face prosecution themselves, according to an announcement from U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro.
Dozens of videos on social media have captured acts of violence and robbery committed by large groups of teenagers at popular areas, including the Navy Yard waterfront. Law enforcement authorities say organizers use social media to alert willing participants.
'Parents: Do your job. Or we will do ours.'
On Friday, Pirro said that the parents of the teenage terrors will face the wrath of the Justice Dept. unless they take control of their children.
"There is one area that hasn't been discussed. Parental involvement has been a noted gap in any discussion," said Pirro at a media briefing.
