A Perspective on Crime Control: The Value of Sentencing Violent Juvenile Offenders as Adults
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page contention that one of the most effective crime prevention methods when it comes to juvenile crime is harsh sentencing. By trying and sentencing violent juvenile offenders as adults we accomplish two things: more severe punishment for the crimes and a greater degree of public awareness of the punishment that goes along with the criminal activity. The result is that a violent offender is effectively taken off the streets and potential offenders are deterred to some degree from committing crimes of a similar nature.

Addressing Juvenile Crime: An Exploration of the Options
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page consideration of the problem presented by juvenile crime. The author points out that with a decade or so of “get tough” policies regarding the problem of juvenile crime, we are slowly beginning to realize that treating young offenders as adults may not be all that effective in regard to actually addressing the issues. Instead of automatically sending juveniles to prison we should explore the other options that offer a potential solution to the problem. Bootcamps, reform school, and group homes offer several possibilities but so do approaches such as group therapy, forced restitution, and aftercare programs which act as half way houses between the juvenile leaving the correctional system and reentering the community. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
