Boy criminal in Essex remanded in to secure custody
A 12-year-old boy found guilty of more than 30 offences in Essex has been remanded in secure accommodation.
Youth workers told a magistrates' court in Witham the youngster, who cannot be named, could not be "contained".
He is being held in local authority accommodation until a court decides on a suitable punishment next month.
An application was made to name him as a threat to the local community but the court decided he was "vulnerable" and this was not in the public interest.
