Are people actually saying that this judge did something wrong here?
I'm sure that the damn parents and the kid agreed on it. Maybe the kid had good grades and going to juvenile would have completely fvcked that up for him. Like I said, I would have agreed to 10 years of church on Sundays rather than having to go to prison for a little over 4 years.
I was actually out of high school and in college when I went, but at least I had the opportunity to go back to college. You don't get even the opportunity of sholarships to college if you don't get a high school degree because you got booted for having to go to juvenile.

Unless this was part of a negotiated plea agreement (which it wasn't) then yes, the judge did something wrong.
While I'm not familiar with Oklahoma statutes, it's ridiculous that simply not specifying which church the teenager must attend creates a legal loophole. No matter how you slice it, this is a state actor using the power of the state to force religion on someone. The United States has a major problem with people attempting to blur the separation between church and state, and the last thing the justice system needs is activist judges forcing religion on defendants.
