Well done! It was hard to find a brief, objective look at juvenile justice for my high school students until I saw this.

[@michellebriggs1347]

Very informative on the history of juvenile system. I am in school to become a juvenile public defender . This is the very reason why!

The beats were sick

[@shnitzeedumple]

This sucks I see many people in my school who could turn up to be people who are responsible and care for their academics, but I see my school just not treating them that way, does my school see potential in all of their students?

[@erwan1965]

Great video

[@brahmabull62]

I believe you all should interview JCO's JUVENILE CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS from theses facilities and get their side of the story, its a whole different side that what DJJ tries to portray!!!

[@armonrakhman3791]

A lot of this depended on your race
