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. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
