Give me the Ives and I'll give you the R - tho the young criminal is easily googleable now
I must be still half-asleep - I'm not getting anything on the young criminal - is s/he being held for questioning? Juvenile delinquent??

The young criminal clue is Young Outlaws and their song Question which I found on google.
So now ... what's the Ives answer (ho ho!)

Coleslaw for Q = Question
Charles Ives was an insurance executive whose father was a band-leader and he wrote an orchestral piece called The Unanswered Question
A young criminal= Young outlaw who recorded a piece called Question
Handel who was a German/Englishman wrote three Antiphons = Question & answer, in Rome in 1707.

The young criminal clue is Young Outlaws and their song Question which I found on google.

What R connects a kingfisher, a wasteful offspring and the madness of Ophelia?
Is the kingfisher the brightly coloured bird or The Fisher King from Shakespeare's Hamlet?
All here!!

Kingfisher - the brightly coloured bird.
I hadn't thought of your Hamlet associations!
