With the increasing large amount of crimes being committed by juvenile’s, official are trying to come up ways to prevent these crimes from ever happening.

Gangs are another example of how smart teens can be. Gangs are recruiting teens at an earlier age. Gangs know that the judicial system is a lot easier going on kids ...
