Rationale and Essential Question for Literary Study

How is justice best served, and does the legal system provide it?

How is the government trying to help society in the less fortunate communities with their problems that at a certain point become a vicious cycle?

Was it right?

On October 17, 1995 Johnny and Tyrone were found guilty of first degree murder in a Juvenile Court. On January 29, 1996 Judge Carol Kelly handed her decision and sentenced Johnny and Tyrone to prison, making them the nations youngest inmates at this time. Do you believe this was the right punishment for Johnny and Tyrone?
