Reference Material

The 2002 Florida Statutes - DELINQUENCY; INTERSTATE COMPACT ON JUVENILES

Statute under which Daniel Carter will be tried as an adult. Rather than reinforce the juvenile justice system in Florida, legislators passed this "catch-all" legislation that allows children of any age to be tried as adults if the sentence for the crime mandates life in prison without parole or the death penalty.

Review of "Youth on Trial" As Florida governor Jeb Bush stated, "There should be a sensitivity to the fact that a 14-year-old is not a little adult." This book suggests how 14-year-olds are different, emphasizes the need for sensitive and psycho-legal attention to such differences, and stresses the need for reform in public policy and the law.
