'JUST TOTALLY SENSELESS'; TWO WILSON 'JUST TOTALLY SENSELESS'; TWO WILSON HIGH SENIORS SHOT DOWN AFTER HIGH SENIORS SHOT DOWN AFTER LEAVING GAME LEAVING GAME
Manassas, Va., March 26, 2000 – Prince William County police say three teens from Stonewall Jackson Middle School were caught with instructions and materials to build bombs.
SANTEE, Calif., March 6 -- San Diego County sheriff's investigators said today that 15-year-old Charles "Andy" Williams took a .22-caliber long-barrel revolver from his father's locked collection of weapons, brought as many as 40 rounds of ammunition to his high school in his backpack and fired 30 of them during the shooting rampage in which the boy allegedly killed two schoolmates and injured 13 others.

Washington Post, March 7, 2001
In the nearly two years since the massacre at Columbine High School, officials at Santana High School developed elaborate security plans for the campus. There were phones in every classroom. Security guards patrolled the hallways with two-way radios. And a sheriff's deputy was assigned to visit the campus each day.
But even with that elaborate security net, school officials could not avert Monday's shooting rampage at the suburban San Diego school because friends of accused gunman Charles "Andy" Williams -- and the one adult who heard Williams's plans -- did not turn him in.

…and Every Day...Trauma room specialists stand helplessly as the mother and brother of a teenager killed in a drive-by shooting collapse in grief on the hospital floor. The family was allowed to see the boy's body, which lies in a nearby room, just moments after the emergency room team failed to revive him.

Violence Every Day
Between 1985 and 1991, annual homicide rates among males 15-19 years old almost tripled (from 13 to 33 per 100,000).
In 1997, 6,083 young people 15-24 years old were victims of homicide. – That translates to 17 youth homicide victims per
day. Homicide is the second leading cause of death for
persons 15-24 years of age, and is the leading cause of death for African-American youths in this age group.

Two Trajectories of Antisocial Behavior: 1. Early Starters
Two Trajectories of Antisocial Behavior: 1. Early Starters
Antisocial tendencies as small children Antisocial behavior at ages 9, 10 predicts
length of arrest record in adolescence, and arrest at those ages predicts adult arrests
Training with deviant peers, beginning late childhood/early adulthood
Big jump in frequency and intensity of antisocial behavior in early adolescence, which later tapers off
Highest risk of persistence in adulthood

Two Trajectories of Antisocial Behavior: 2: Late Starters
Those whose first antisocial acts occur in adolescence are likely to have a less chronic course, and less likely to continue to commit antisocial acts after adolescence

Is Conduct Disorder A Mental Disorder?
Richters and Cicchetti Article: – Concept of Harmful Dysfunction:
A condition is a disorder if and only if:
- It causes harm, or deprivation of benefit, to the person (as judged by one’s culture)
AND
The condition results from the inability of some internal mechanism to perform its natural function, from an evolutionary perspective

Peer relationships: Social AggressionPeer relationships: Social Aggression
During Childhood, aggression is physical
Girls: develop social aggression ages 10-11– Proportion of female conflicts involving social aggression
rises from 14% in 4th grade, to 56% in 10th grade.
Boys: Use little social aggression even in adolescence.– Severity of aggression increases in adolescence, boys
stronger and more often use weapons

Peer rejectionPeer rejection
Peer rejection in middle childhood has been linked to externalizing problems in childhood, as well as adolescence
Rejected/aggressive boys tend to persist in aggression when other aggressive kids stop
Males who are rejected and aggressive in middle childhood are more likely to show high levels or increasing in antisocial behavior across adolescence

Family ProcessFamily Process
Family Coercion Model: (GR Patterson)– Involves parental irritability, child provocation– Negative reciprocity ends with parent backing
down– Negative reinforcement of aggressive behavior
results
Poor monitoring Poor parenting (inconsistent, harsh) Parents do not prevent escalation of
aggression with peers
