Sounds like they were "allegedly" teenagers.

Contemporary Antioch is a product of federal housing policy and introduced demographic change. In the 1990’s, public housing residents from Richmond (also Contra Costa) were relocated to Antioch, where it was promised that they would maintain the character/ demographics of the town. The County gave an assist and in fact helped gerrymander Supervisor districts to provide a majority black electorate in a district that includes Antioch and Richmond (even though they are in opposite ends of the county). The results have been predictably disappointing.

Bringing their parents will only make things worse.
