    When one thinks about juvenile crime, many different thoughts come to mind. Do we think about high profile cases such as Columbine? Do we think about random acts of gang violence? Do we think about William Lembcke, the 16-year-old boy from Colville, Washington who killed his entire family (his sister, brother, step-dad, and mother) during the Christmas holiday two year ago because he was told to chop some firewood? As we think about him, we realize that he could be the boy we used to baby-sit, a loner we went to school with but never really talked to, or a boy we used to date. Did this act…

    One thing that correlates to the crimes is child maltreatment. When they child is not taken care of they tend to veer off and find other means of living and making ends meet. Another variable is alcoholism and drug use. A parent or parents is a child’s biggest role model and so are their siblings and any other older siblings. If a child grows up always seeing nothing but alcohol around the house and their family getting high off of pills and smoking than they are naturally going to take that lifestyle in and think that it is normal and okay and they will think that everyone else around them lives the same lifestyle. Bullying has in my world been a major variable. Whens someone is bullied they think that they need to find their own happy place and they claim that committing crimes does that for them. For example when a person gets in a fight or steals something and all the attention is turned on them, that is the highlight of their lives because everyone always bullied them. Single or no parent homes is probably one of the biggest variables. Like I mentioned before a parent or parents are a child’s biggest role models. A child’s mind is like a sponge and they always play the game of monkey see monkey do. This will never go away even when they are all grown up and moved out. I was a child that was in a single family home and there was nothing I would of ever…

    There are many advantages of the taxpayer and the juveniles to split the juvenile courts into two sections because it will benefit taxpayer and juveniles by splitting into sections. By doing that status offenders will get more help and treat as a minor crime offender, which they don’t in a joint section. Status offenders are treated unfairly, and don’t get the punishment what they are committed too, there is a need for splitting a juvenile court into two sections. The advantages of splitting will help status offenders to be treated fairly according to their offences.…

    The apparent increase in drug related offenses may be attributable to the increase in availability of the drugs. In Colorado marijuana was legalized for medicinal purposes and suddenly became a popular drug with minors in schools, as it was obtainable at the home from parents or guardians that have a valid prescription. This has led to many students being prosecuted for both possession and distribution within schools.…

    Limited data is available to evaluate automatic waivers. It wasn’t until 1997 that automatic waivers were implemented, and the information was inconclusive on exactly how many juveniles have been waived into the adult system. Figure 2 shows that in 1998, the Department of Corrections provided some idea of how many juveniles were handled by the adult criminal justice system ("Alaska Juveniles Waived into the Adult System," 1998).…

    Stereotyping happens all the time, more than people seem to believe it does. Appearance, location, and race all deal with how people as well as police authority characterize individuals without truly knowing how that person is. Race is one of the biggest factors when it comes to criminalization because of what people see on the media and from what they are told. It usually is the younger generation that are viewed as criminals not only because of where they live and who they associate themselves with, or with what is seen on the media but also because some young people come from a family history of criminals. The issue here is that not all young people are criminals; but when living in an area that is known for high crime rates, and viewed solemnly on their skin color to determine whether they are criminals, it's not easy for them to live each day fearing for their life and being harassed by the police.…

    If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. How would you feel if a teen that committed murder was in the same class as your son or daughter, or any other teenager that you care about? That would be pretty scary. Being a teen myself, I would not want to be surrounded by anyone that is potentially harmful. The White House held a televised conference on adolescent development, and they discussed about whether teen’s brain development disadvantages could explain their “impulsive, erratic behavior”. Paul Thompson wrote an article titled “Startling Finds on Teenage Brains”. He explained how we lose brain tissue in our teen years and how it could possibly affect our impulses, risk-taking, and self control. Teens who commit violent crimes should be tried as adults because even though their brain is not fully developed, they should still have the capability to control themselves.…

    The word “delinquency” is a strong word and when people hear it they get scared. Juvenile delinquency is occurs when a juvenile’s behavior is in violation of criminal law, juvenile status offenses, and other juvenile misconducts. On the other hand, status offenses are those misconducts committed or engaged by a juvenile and that can be presented in a juvenile court. Status offenses are those offenses illegal for a certain group of people, in this case juvenile’s, and not illegal to others, like adults. For example, the intake of tobacco, alcohol, running away from home, owning a firearm, gambling, etc. are some status offenses.…

    Teenagers, who commit violent crime such as murder, first degree murder, second degree murder, homicides, voluntary manslaughter, and involuntary manslaughter should be tried as adults. These teenagers knew exactly what they were doing and they also had the intent to kill. Families are blaming it on violent movies or violent TV shows, hello it is called parental control. Maybe if we start trying them as adults teens would think twice. Adolescents should be tried as adults for committing violent crimes because they knew what they were going to do before they committed the crime.…
