I will add to your PINS question objection. In writing it, they were reading off the Juvenile Report Section:
A COMPLAINT REPORT WORKSHEET (Juvenile Report caption checked off) and a JUVENILE REPORT SYSTEM WORKSHEET are prepared for a juvenile at least seven (7) but less than sixteen (16) years of age for: a. An act that would constitute a crime if committed by an adult except for those acts listed in step 4 of P.G. 207-01, Complaint Reporting System b. Violations committed by juveniles c. Person in need of supervision (if under sixteen (16) years of age) as defined in the Family Court Act, (Section 712, subdivision a); Advise civilian complainant of right to seek a petition in Family Court
Members of the service will prepare an ON-LINE ARREST REPORT SUPPLEMENT WORKSHEET (PD224-1516) when a person in need of supervision is sixteen (16) or seventeen (17) years of age.
d. Intoxicated juveniles e. Juvenile under sixteen (16) years of age found in a house of prostitution f. Stranded juvenile g. Runaway juvenile h. Juvenile unlawfully present in a licensed premises i. Juvenile apparently under the influence of a dangerous drug, e.g., heroin, cocaine, morphine, opium, marijuana, amphetamines, barbiturates, hallucinogens j. Traffic infractions - bicycles - persons over seven (7) but less than sixteen (16) years of age k. Missing person, at least seven (7) years of age but less than sixteen (16) years of age.
A PINS is a family court designation made by a judge pursuant to the family court act. It has nothing to do with the answers provided on the test. It appears that the exam writers mistook the note in the juvenile report worksheet criteria for a heading for subsequent text. Therefore, all answers provided are equally correct (in that they are all wrong). If you actually read the department guide on-line, they made this mistake because the "Note" appears at the top of the page.
They didn't bother to read that the note between C & D was referring to C and had absolutely nothing to do with d,e,f,g. Dummies.
This is a give-me and will put all 69's who didn't choose their erroneous answer into the passing range.
