Why changing juvenile corrections is critical to American criminal justice

Prison reform is a major topic within the national political conversation.

Johnnie McDaniels, former executive director of the Henley-Young Juvenile Justice Center, shares a brief but spectacular take on the "revolving door" of juvenile corrections.

Youth, Design, and Juvenile Justice Reform

Tuesday, January 22, 2019
5:00pm – 6:15pm
Room 003, Rockefeller Center
Sponsored by: Rockefeller Center

In 2014, youth from Chicago created a tech tool that opened up a needed path to a 2nd chance for thousands of their peers. Mr. Rudd will discuss the process these young people undertook to create the tool and the effects it has on the justice system in Illinois.

Chris Rudd is a human-centered designer and  community organizer with a passion for social justice. He has worked with youth on the South and West Sides of Chicago, challenging them to engage with their communities through activism and technology. Rudd has helped youth from Chicago to the Bay Area design eight civic apps, including Expunge.io.

Rudd completed a year-long fellowship at Stanford’s Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (the d.school). As a Civic Innovation Fellow, he spent a year immersed in graduate courses learning, applying, and honing his skills in the human-centered design methodology. Currently, Rudd is working with the Institute of Design at IIT and leading ChiByDesign, a Black-owned and people of color-led human-centered design firm. ChiByDesign believes that empowering the people who are directly affected by issues with the tools and mindsets of design thinking can unlock limitless creative and effective solutions.

When Kids Get Life (PBS Frontline)

The United States is one of the only countries in the world that allows children under 18 to be sentenced to life without parole. Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International report that more than 2,000 inmates are currently serving life without parole in the United States for crimes committed when they were juveniles; in the rest of the world, there are only 12 juveniles serving the same sentence, according to figures reported to the United Nations' Convention on the Rights of the Child.

You Have the Right to Remain Silent – California Bill Strengthens Mirand...

Take Action: http://fairsentencingforyouth.org/mir... Currently in California, children—no matter how young— can waive their Miranda rights. When law enforcement conducts a custodial interrogation, they are required to recite basic constitutional rights to the individual, known as Miranda rights, and secure a waiver of those rights before proceeding. The waiver must be voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently made. Miranda waivers by juveniles present distinct issues. Recent advances in cognitive science research have shown that the capacity of youth to grasp legal rights is less than that of an adult. This is especially true for very young, developmentally disabled, or cognitively delayed children, and for those with mental health problems.

Locked Up In A Philippine Jail Cell

Scott was detained in the Muntinlupa City jail in metropolitan Manila for 5 long years. Again I repeat he was simply detained. No trial was ever held.


Scott's ordeal began after he had words with a neighbor whom he accused of traumatizing one of his children. Scott then filed legal papers against the neighbor. 
.
In retaliation against Scott, the neighbor filed legal papers against Scott and accused him of rape. The PNP(Philippine National Police) arrested Scott immediately and detained him.

McMahon, who has two children with his Filipino fiancee, had been detained since April 7, 2011. Scott holds the dubious distinction of the foreign national who has been held the longest in detention with no formal trial or hearing.

Scott's mother Shelley Campanella, began a social media campaign to free her son. Websites demanding his release and requesting donations for legal help sprung up. Facebook, and other media formats were used as well.

Shelley hired lawyers and also appealed to the united Nations but to no avail.

Miraculously, On August 2, 2016 a judge reviewed evidence in the case and the evidence was flimsy and orders Scott to be released.

I review the conditions of a Philippine Jail and encourage viewers on how to relate with Filipinos regarding disputes.

When a Filipino or Filipina has been shamed and lost face, they will go to any length to retaliate.
