Is the Death Penalty for Juveniles Constitutional?
Number of pages:
14
ABSTRACT:
This 14 paper provides a thoughtful look at the Roper v. Simmons case that in 2005 changed the course of the death penalty application. Juvenile justice is an important matter in society and is an underlying theme of this inquiry. Both sides of the issue are discussed at length and the paper concludes that while there are good points on each side, a good society should seek to rehabilitate youth rather than treat them like adult criminals. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
