It’s on their record now and will follow them for the rest of their lives. Now I’m all for giving people a second chance - but it seems our revolving door justice system gives many an infinite number of chances.

if they haven't then they should also be made to pay the cost of replacement and repair and that should have been part of the sentence.
I see "Their parents were ordered to pay £500 each in compensation for the damage – a total of £1,500. The fourth boy will be sentenced next month" whilst not the parents fault that still seems to leave a shortfall of £28,500 but when 4th boy sentenced that may change. Why should the victims pay?
You could argue that the parents too are the victims but alas as parents the responsibility is theirs and so they should cough up. I wonder if any of them offered to pay.
More than £107,000, including a £10,000 donation from model rail enthusiast Sir Rod Stewart, has been raised in a crowdfunding appeal to repair the exhibitions
