Description
Juvenile Justice System: Law and Process is an introduction to the procedures and law of the entire juvenile system, civil and criminal. It bridges the gap between introductory juvenile delinquency texts and law school case-texts. This book illustrates the inner workings of the juvenile justice system with authentic case law, research, and behavioural sciences theory. Readers will see children through the eyes of parents, police, social workers, defending attorneys, prosecuting attorneys, judges, and others who impact upon the child in his or her journey through the system. Since each state has created its own juvenile justice system, the book provides a detailed overview of some of the ranging differences nationally and makes order of what is a very decentralized system. The second edition is updated with many new court cases as well as tests and exercises at the end of each chapter to help students learn the material. Such topics covered include: search and seizure, investigation and interrogation, the justice process for delinquent (criminal) youth, child abuse and neglect, crimes against children, child custody, and termination of parental rights. -New courtcases throughout. -New topics such as: custody, parental rights, and abuse. -Offers "brain exercises" for students.
