Juvenile Justice

Should teenagers who commit serious crimes be tried as juveniles or adults? What happens to young offenders who reach the end of the line in the juvenile court system -- and can you rehabilitate such young people to prevent future criminal behavior? Frontline examines these questions by following four youth offenders through the Santa Clara County, California juvenile courts, observing how the criminal justice system treats their cases and determines their fates.
