Description: Analyzes the justice system's response to sexual misconduct by children and adolescents in the United States. This book discusses our society's failure to consider the developmental status of adolescent sex offenders.
Synopsis: "An American Travesty" is the first scholarly book in half a century to analyze the justice system's response to sexual misconduct by children and adolescents in the United States. Writing with a refreshing dose of common sense, Franklin E. Zimring discusses our society's failure to consider the developmental status of adolescent sex offenders. Too often, he argues, the American legal system ignores age and developmental status when adjudicating young sexual offenders, in many cases responding as they would to an adult.
