To believe or not to believe, that is the question. Do you believe none of what you hear and half of what you see or do you trust in someone until they prove to be untrustworthy? When you hear about the next celebrity or politician in the media is your view point instant or do you do more research? Do you believe most people are straight and narrow or do you believe most people are full of it?

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A JUVENILE AND ADULT CASE

Madison Jade Spearman was born September 24, 2010 and she departed this life August 15, 2011 at 11 months old.  Madison died from injuries she sustained at the hands of a 15 year old male that beat her because he grew tired of her crying. The young man that murdered Madison is about to be sentenced to 4 years in prison for Aggravated Man Slaughter.  Four years for taking the life of this baby. Madison’s family fights for a just sentence  that fits the crime.

This story raises many questions about trying juveniles as adults when they commit a serious crime.  The Live in the Vocal Booth team looks at Punishment vs Rehabilitation and when should we seek stiffer penalties for Juveniles.

When his firm, The Law Offices of Steven E.

He says, “Juvenile Justice is particularly important in this regard. Because the law tends to punish juveniles of color significantly more brutally than other minors, someone has to fight to preserve the lives of these often misguided souls.”
