Court confiscates Nintendo Wii from a young offender

Posted By | On 04th, Nov. 2009

Well, this case is unique. We all know that many people get violent by playing more and more video games, may be its a problem in their brains or they don’t have elders to look after them. A 12 year old boy who had an impressive bio data of causing trouble was warned by the court that if he doesn’t leave his violent ways, he can forget about his Wii.

Can a video game console straighten up a violent kid?

Here is the list of the troubles that was caused by the boy:

  • Hit another boy on the head
  • Attacking a fellow male student
  • Attacked a female teacher

The Judge Judge Marvin Garfinkle granted the boy bail but confiscated his Wii in the hope that the boy will straighten up. The boy’s lawyer had the following to say:

“I know it doesn’t look good. I’ve never seen him enraged, I’ve never seen him upset. He’s a 12-year-old who is generally quite scared.”

So guys what do you think? Will confiscating a Nintendo Wii help matters?
