I read the article on the 17 year olds. I think one of the most interesting things I read was that most of these kids that are committed, go on to commit more crimes. It would seem to me that trying them as adults doesn't seem to help anything. I do think that there are some cases where 17 year olds need to be tried as adults. Those would be in cases of murder or rape. Another interesting thing I learned was that there are little or no educational services for these teens. At age 17, they should still be in high school and should be getting the eduacation they are required.
I don't have any questions at this time!
