Respondent minor was adjudicated delinquent for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon and unlawful possession of a firearm. Minor was sentenced to 3 years probation, and probation conditions included school attendance, community service, individual and family counseling,no gang contact, and tattoo removal.Court's gang-related restrictions on minor's activity, contacts, and social media usage were valid because they related to her rehabilitation. Restriction on gang contact and activity was not so overbroad as to be unreasonable. Court's condition requiring her to remove her facial tattoo of a crown, symbolizing allegiance to the Latin Kings gang, was valid because it related to her rehabilitation. Remanded to clarify order as to removal of her other 2 tattoos.(ROCHFORD and HOFFMAN, concurring.)
