Jurors’ Perceptions Of Juvenile Defendants: The Influence Of Intellectual Disability, Abuse History, And Confession Evidence, Cynthia J. Najdowski, Bette L. Bottoms, Maria C. Vargas
Psychology Faculty Scholarship
Understanding jurors’ perceptions of juvenile defendants has become increasingly important as more and more juvenile cases are being tried in adult criminal court rather than family or juvenile court. Intellectual disability and child maltreatment are overrepresented among juvenile delinquents, and juveniles (particularly disabled juveniles) are at heightened risk for falsely confessing to crimes. In two mock trial experiments, we examined the effects of disability, abuse history, and confession evidence on jurors’ perceptions of a juvenile defendant across several different crime scenarios. Abused juveniles were treated more leniently than nonabused juveniles only when the juvenile’s crime was motivated by self-defense against …

In Whose "Best Interests"? – An International And Comparative Assessment Of Us Rules On Sentencing Of Juveniles, Jelani Jefferson Exum, John W. Head
Faculty Publications
According to numerous sources, both at the international level and within the USA, legal standards governing the treatment of children (commonly defined as persons under 18 years old)—including their treatment at the hands of the judicial system—should reflect an assessment of "the best interests of the child". An explicit announcement of this principle at the international level appears in the Convention on the Rights of the Child ("CRC"), which nearly all countries in the world have adopted. Article 37 of the CRC elaborates on the "best interests" principle, by prescribing six key standards national juvenile justice systems are to follow …

Section IV will explore how the highest courts in two major jurisdictions may handle an appeal from a fictional juvenile sentenced to a shaming punishment. Finally, the comment will discuss possible improvements in the juvenile justice system.

Juvenile Justice Systems: A Need For Improved Research And Treatment, Tenethrea Thompson, Jean Turner
Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

The literature review and three case studies provided insight into the difficult challenge of providing effective treatment programs for juvenile offenders.
The Right To Treatment For Juveniles In Texas: A Legislative Proposal., Mark H. Marshall
The Right To Treatment For Juveniles In Texas: A Legislative Proposal., Mark H. Marshall
St. Mary's Law Journal
Studies of adult prison populations show large percentages of such populations are juvenile offenders. The right to treatment concept emerged as a solution to this perplexing problem. The right to treatment guarantees juveniles post-adjudicative care and treatment aimed at rehabilitation. Courts have indicated a willingness to support the right to treatment concept. However, legislatures limit courts power to affect change. To fully implement the right to treatment, legislatures must establish an express right to treatment for institutionalized juveniles and set standards to ensure this right. The Texas Legislature has an excellent start toward this goal, but it should not be …
The Juvenile Offender Act: Effectiveness And Impact On The New York Juvenile Justice System, Merril Sobie
The Juvenile Offender Act: Effectiveness And Impact On The New York Juvenile Justice System, Merril Sobie
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
The Juvenile Offender Act of 1978 incorporates the most radical and perhaps the most controversial amendments to New York's juvenile delinquency statutes in several decades. For the first time since 1909, children accused of committing serious offenses are subject to prosecution in the criminal courts. The gradual decriminalization of delinquency, which began a century and a half ago, has been reversed. This report analyzes and evaluates the Act and its implementation. The first two sections summarize the historical development of juvenile delinquency legislation and compare present New York provisions to those in other states. Sections III and IV will evaluate …
