Crimes committed in one's youth are likely to have an impact on the whole life of the perpetrator. That’s why a young offender needs a well functioning justice system whose purpose is not just to prove their crimes but also to help them make up for them, draw their conclusions and come back to the right path before their lives become completely derailed. Study the interview with a juvenile court judge. What advice does she give to people who think that crime is a tempting way to make a living?

Przestępstwa popełnione w młodości często rzutują na całe życie osoby, która je popełniła. Dlatego młodociani przestępcy potrzebują dobrze funkcjonującego systemu sprawiedliwości, którego celem jest nie tylko udowodnienie ich winy, lecz także danie im możliwości zadośćuczynienia za błędy, wyciągnięcia wniosków i powrotu na dobrą drogę. Zapoznaj się z wywiadem z sędzią sądu dla nieletnich. Jakich rad udziela ludziom, którym przestępczość wydaje się kuszącym sposobem zarabiania na życie?
