BALTIMORE — Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is ordering the state’s Department of Juvenile Justice to review its rules for sharing information about youth accused or convicted of violent crimes who attend a public school.

Sharing juvenile delinquency history became one flashpoint after another The 17-year-old Howard County student was charged with first-degree murder earlier this month.

The student — who wore an ankle monitor after being convicted of attempted murder last year — is accused of killing a man whose body was found in a car near Howard High School, where the student transferred from Anne Arundel County.

The killing prompted the state Department of Education this week to do so require school inspectors to share information confidentially about a student’s criminal past when they transfer to a new district.

Howard County Schools Superintendent William Barnes said last week:

Now, Moore is leading the Department of Juvenile Services to oversee an agency review of information-sharing procedures.

Moore said in a statement that he “will carefully study this interagency review once it is complete.”

The state’s newly formed Commission on Juvenile Justice Reform and Emerging Best Practices (which was formed before the Howard County incident) will also hold its first meeting soon and will take into account the new interagency review.
