Her attorneys have already appealed those fines. She is set to report to custody by Dec. 10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She will also be on supervised probation for two years, and during that time, she is forbidden from going near Petaluma Poultry facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the sentencing hearing in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County Superior Court Judge Kenneth Gnoss said the sentence was issued due to Rosenberg’s lack of remorse and to prevent further unlawful actions by her or her associates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sentence is far less than the 4 ½-year maximum that Rosenberg, 23, could have faced after being convicted of felony conspiracy and three misdemeanor counts in October.

He was free on a probational program, called deferred entry of judgment, which allows a person to eventually have a charge dismissed if they do not commit crimes while free, and often includes rehabilitative requirements like counseling, community service and paying restitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case has resurfaced debate over whether more punitive punishments for youth who commit violent acts would help prevent such crimes, and prompted some community leaders to call for harsher penalties even as juvenile justice experts and advocates say putting young people behind bars for longer will not increase safety.[aside postID=news_12065629 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/240418-SJPDFILE-JG-6_qed.jpg']Greg Woods, a senior lecturer in the Department of Justice Studies at San José State University, said reverting to “tough on crime” laws would only breed more crime in communities and that teenagers and children need to be treated as such.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t hold legally enforceable contracts between juveniles and adults when it comes to making payments for an apartment or a mortgage or a car. We don’t permit juveniles to purchase alcohol or firearms or to even vote, because we don’t presume that they have the capacity to truly understand the significance of their acts,” Woods said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But when it comes to their criminal responsibility, we somehow now have talked ourselves into something that we were entertaining way back in the 1980s and 1990s, that the way we can best preserve our public safety is to guarantee a harsh punishment,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials said Monday the shooting in the early evening of Nov. 28 was motivated by gang affiliation. The suspected shooter went to the mall with a group of people while wearing gang-affiliated clothing, spotted an alleged rival gang member, and shot at him, police said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He fired six bullets, hitting the man he perceived as a rival, narrowly missing a fatal injury, and also hit two bystanders, a woman and a 16-year-old girl, who were not involved in the conflict, authorities said. All three victims were hospitalized and were expected to recover and were released by Monday, officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosen said he also plans to file accessory charges against three adults: the shooter’s brother, the brother’s girlfriend and another man, who are all alleged to have helped the teenager escape and hide after the shooting, before he was arrested on Sunday night.
