Personal Narrative: Teen Court
While back I was in a program called "Teen Court". It was a special program that not all kids could go to. Mostly we would go every month . Since we we're there every time. They decided to reward us with a field trip to Castles N' Coasters. But the downside to it was that it was my friend Victorias last field trip.

The people who were involved were Victoria,Katie,,Brianna,Her friend, and I This happened around 6th grade at the end of the year. When we first got there they made us stand in two separate lines just to figure out what we wanted to eat that took us 30 minutes! I will repeat 30 minutes and it wasn't even a lot of kids ,mostly it was this guys fault because he left. Then finally they let us go wherever we wanted to.

    Juvenile Justice Case Summary

    On January 13, 1999, tragedy struck when Hae Min Lee went missing after what seemed to be a normal day at Woodlawn High School in Baltimore, Maryland. Then on February 9, 1999, Lee’s body was found buried in Leakin Park, just a seven minute drive from the high school. Lee’s former boyfriend, Adnan Syed, was seventeen at the time of the murder and attended the same school as Lee. They had an on-and-off relationship that officially ended in December of their senior year, just one month before her disappearance. Syed remained the prime suspect in the case and was arrested on February 28, 1999 and charged with first-degree murder. Throughout the trial, the prosecution claimed that Syed was so broken after the break-up, that he murdered Lee out of rage. Lee’s diary was brought in as evidence as she wrote about Syed’s behavior after the break up and details of their relationship. The prosecution also summoned a witness that spoke of Syed’s suspicious behavior, leading up to and after the murder. There were several pieces of key evidence and convincing claims presented in the 1999-2000 trial. The prosecution’s work convinced the jury to produce Syed’s guilty verdict, sentencing him to life in prison.…

    Personal Narrative: The Dyer Street Case

    As a police detective, I see a lot of things ordinary men can’t even fathom—serial killers, rapists, drug lords—but nothing could have prepared me for the Dyer Street case. It started out like any other home invasion: a local woman went to bed with her family when all of a sudden she heard a scream coming from her son’s bedroom. When she entered the room she found her son on the floor, unresponsive.…

    Red Hook Youth Court Case Study

    It was hard for me to grab a life jacket or a rope to resist the speed of contaminated water washing people of color down the School-Prison Pipeline. My eyes watered as the speed, caused by zero tolerance, accelerated black men and women tumbling down the hole. I reminisce from my first job at Red Hook Youth Court the fundamentals of restorative justice: a judicial method where instead of incarcerating people for their crimes, offenders direct to a more positive action in the community. Before entering this job, my parents continuously instructed, “be a leader, be black, and be alive”. Questions spiral in my head from the latter. I was in good health, repelled from trouble, and I only loved to film so what was the danger?…

    Juvenile Justice Case Study

    The Child Protection System and the Juvenile Justice system are interaction agencies in the Juvenile Justice Victim System. The systems mission is to protect children and render justice to the victim. The objectives of the two systems primarily concerns are physical abuse, sex abuse the mistreatment of the child, assault, neglect, and emotional maltreatment. The enormous amount of crime against children goes undetected due to lack of reporting to authorities. If there is substantiated evidence than the authorities will remove the child from the home and into protective custody, this is considered serious intervention; foster care services provide temporary safe home for children. The court system operates on the assumption that…

    Essay On Juveniles Tried As Adults

    “The only effective way to reduce and prevent juvenile crime is to balance tough enforcement measures with targeted, effective and intervention initiatives.” Juveniles are children and children don’t know any better and obviously make mistakes. They don’t expect to be caught after committing a serious crime. Juveniles brains are not fully developed until they are 25, but young people recognize them as adults at the age of 18. About 25,000 children a year have their cases sent to adult courts instead of being tried in juvenile courts, whose convicted defendants are usually set free by the time they turn 21. Trying juveniles as adults is not beneficial for them. But it also is a crime. And crimes are crimes whether…

    Personal Narrative: A Career In Legal Aid

    I have known Melody for over 10 years. I have watched her grow academically and professionally from a high school student in an International Baccalaureate Scholars program, to someone who is passionate about her career in the law field. As a peer, has been a source of motivation and an example of what hard work and commitment looks like. I remember when she first started working for Legal Aid of North Carolina soon after graduating from college. She started off as a volunteer and invested time with the company for about 3 months before being offered a position. Most graduates would have rather been applying to paid jobs versus making that sacrifice for a company post-graduation. Then, after about a year and a half working at Legal Aid NC as…

    Personal Narrative: My First Youth In Government Program

    In fourteen short years of life, I have accomplished a few things: starting a cheer team at my previous high school, playing several years of basketball, and having my bill pass in my first Youth in Government program. Sports have always been a staple part of my childhood and early adolescence; I have cheered for 3 years and played basketball for an additional 3 years. I have dedicated my time to cheer and basketball; the second, fourth, and sixth grades were devoted to basketball while the third, eighth, and ninth grades were devoted to cheer. This year is my sophomore year in high school and I became part of the Youth in Government program at my school. In cheer, I had to choreograph dances, teach cheers, and help manage the other cheerleaders.…

    Personal Narrative: My Change From Middle School To High School

    My change from middle school to high school was very scary because high school is a bigger school than middle school. The things about high school that scared me were the hallways, people, and how difficult it was going to be overall. In the middle school there’s wo big hallways, one little band hall, and a tiny gym right outside so it’s not hard to get lost. The high school is a different story there’s two big hallways, classes outside on the hill, the band hall, and the event center. The sophomores were nice, the juniors and seniors weren’t so nice and it never changed over the years. I know senior year hasn’t finished but I don’t think it’ll be better than my freshmen year, because I’ve been stressing every day since this year started. All…
