Hardened criminals are usually associated with pre-meditated violent crimes. Having past experience with crime, these criminals have no hesitation when it comes to taking another human beings life. When, and if these cold-blooded killers are caught, justice serves its purpose. They are handed the longest and toughest prison sentence possible, but it makes people won

Ronald used the system and its discrepancies to his advantage. Ronald and his lawyers knew it was a win-win situation, the law was set and they knew it could not be a hypocritical in this case. The judges and prosecutor understood this too, making Ducan a boy who got away with murder. Ronald can return to his life in six to eight years without any prior criminal record. He still has a future he can pursue after his incarceration. The state on the other hand lost money trying to convict a boy they knew was going to be set free. Time was lost and in a sense justice was not served. A boy who is clearly mentally unstable will be set free into the generally public, making the world unsafe. The boy will have the mentality that he can get away with serious offenses. This case was a waste of everything to the state, their money, time, and manpower. Basically the state was hurt by Ronald Ducan, and the fact that more Ronald Ducans can emerge rests uneasily in minds of officials and citizens.

Its unfortunate that all judges are not like Dorn. If the judges all cared the system would be on a better track to success. I believe that all judges should be critiqued during hearings. They should be graded upon judgment, fairness, and personal involvement. It's only fair because the judges decide the futures of these juveniles, and the futures of all juveniles are still uncertain whether or not they committed a crime. Dorn should be made into the model judge for this test. Him caring about juveniles is important, but his strict decorum he believes juveniles should display is also very important. Most judges do not get involved with the cases, and treat them as obstacles of the day. An evaluation of all juvenile judges should be made in order to deem them suitable for judgment.

Carla went home and instead of improving she got worse. Her grades were falling and she was getting more involved with her gang, "Tepa-13". She was tough and respected by her peers, and if any her friends were threatened she'd be the first to retaliate. She immortalized her gang name onto her stomach as a sign of loyalty and pride. Her court order prohibited her to fraternize with the gang or its members, yet the tattoo embellished onto her stomach was clear evidence of her socialization with the gang, and it would soon send her to jail. On a routine traffic stop she was searched and was pinned as a hardcore gangbanger. A probation officer named Sharon Stegall recognized her and found that having a gang tattoo was grounds for a probation violation.

der how a young teenager could be responsible for a crime like murder.

The state and Carla were helped by the system, with the aid of Judge Dorn. Carla found a new life, where she took things seriously and has a future to look to. The state changed a threat into an advantage. Carla was not with her gang anymore causing havo
