    Depends on which state or country you are in. There are some strange laws out there.

    Its adult court in the state of Michigan, US. I mean I've heard of someone being called a menace to society by a court official, but never heard of it being an actual offence charged to someone.

    The Michigan statutes are a terrible hodge-podge, but the crimes are in general defined here. I don't see it.

    The charging document should refer to a section of the statute. It should say something like "[your friend] did such-and-such, all in violation of [section number whatever]."
