Authorities are searching for a 15-year-old who escaped from an Orange juvenile detention facility, where he was being held on suspicion of murdering his mother.
The boy was 13 when he was arrested in May 2017 on suspicion of stabbing his mother, Barbara Scheuer-Souzer, in Garden Grove. She was able to tell police she was attacked by her son, before she died at a hospital.
Ike, who has mild autism, was found at a shopping center nearby after the stabbing. His name wasn’t released at the time of the murder.
Probation officials say Ike got out of a locked room and jumped a fence to escape, and ran northbound on City Drive. He turned up missing during a random room check, and 60 officers and other officials began searching for him within minutes of the discovery.
Surveillance video captured him leaving, and the footage suggests he has an injury to his leg.

Send him to a maximum security prison.
I’d say this one is on the prison and guards. Trying to get away is what I would expect a 15 year old boy to do. I’d be shocked if he didn’t. Try, I mean. That’s why we’re paying these guys to guard him in the first place.
They don’t look genetically related.

I’m sad that it was a kid with autism. I spend my days with teen boys with autism. None of them are violent though of course people with autism have a hard time controlling some emotions. The difficulty with impulse control can cause a situation to escalate.
Yes, depending on his expression of this condition, he may not be truly guilty of first degree or second degree murder. If he has shown violence when upset in the past, he needed less freedom than he had.
We aren’t careful enough with our special needs adult sized people. It’s wrong how we have seriously mentally ill onnthe streets these days. We have really messed up, allowing people with bipolar and schizophrenia, even on dangerous drugs, living wild on our city streets. It’s one of the worst things we’ve ever done next to slavery.
