Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser reportedly “lashed out” Monday against a Superior Court judge who released a 15-year-old carjacking suspect rather than holding her in a facility pending her trial on separate robbery charges.

The unidentified minor was sent home pending her trial on robbery charges and days later was involved with a group of girls that carjacked a ride-share driver on Thursday. The teen’s half-sister died in a crash after the carjacking, NBC Washington reported.

Bowser slammed the judge’s decision to have sent the girl home rather than hold her, according to the report. (RELATED: 7-Year-Old Saves Her Sister As Carjacker Holds Family At Gunpoint)

“In my opinion, you’ve been arrested for the seventh time for carjacking, [secure detention] is where you belong,” Bowser reportedly told reporters. “Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services does not make that decision. Judges do, and it’s the judge’s right to say I prefer shelter. And if I can’t get a shelter, then I’m going to send the child home. The child was sent home. The child is now not wish us.”
