Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Preventive Detention of Juveniles: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Juvenile Justice of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-Eighth Congress, Second Session
The scope of this hearing is under the authority of the Congress to legislate under article V of the 14th amendment on due process issues.
The concerns which we will address relate to the underlying facts of Schall, where juveniles were detained on offenses ranging from enticing others to gamble, to first degree robbery. A number of the class involved were first time offenders, and according to the facts presented to me, the vast majority of those detained were placed on majority - or their cases were ultimately dismissed.
