Paying For Crime?
Jose Gonzalez, 12, holds a sign he was made to carry on the corner of 22nd and Larimer Street in downtown Denver Tuesday for his punishment. Gonzalez took $100 from the wallet of his cousin in their Aurora home. His father Joseph set his punishment to carry the sign telling of his mistake, near the Fast Cash where he works.
