Juvenile System Versus Adult System

Part 1

Create one fictional case of armed robbery where the suspect is a juvenile and one where the suspect is an adult.

· Contrast two fictional cases, one juvenile and one adult, at each part of the process as the suspect goes through the justice system.

· Demonstrate which process, juvenile or adult, would be the most preferred from the perspective of the defendant.

Part 2 (Separate page)
