The
broadcast examines trends in the prosecution of juveniles as adult criminal
offenders and presents recent research on the impact of these changes on
traditional jurisdiction authority, correctional programming and the impact
on troubled youth.
Two
nationally-recognized researchers, Patricia Torbet of the National
Center for Juvenile Justice, and Professor Jeffery Fagan of Columbia
University, discuss the challenges presented to the justice system by the
increase in transfers of juvenile offenders out of the juvenile court.
The differing perspectives of the Honorable Maurice Portley, Presiding
Judge, Maricopa County, Ariz., Juvenile Court; Richard Stalder,
Louisiana Secretary of Public Safety and Corrections; Harry Shorstein,
State's Attorney, Duval County, Fla.; Colorado Representative Jeanne
Atkins and OJJDP Administrator Shay Bilchik are shared
with the viewing audience.
