You found a single juvenile case that was serious and well covered in the media.(Find a juvenile case (offender is under 18 when crime is committed) that was well covered in the media. This should be a serious crime, i.e.: robbery, murder, rape) You will now use a single criminology theory covered in your textbook to explain the crime.(I like differential association theory0 Make sure your abstract matches what you write about (for those who made changes since the abstract assignment).

Your instructions:
Describe the inextricable connections between social, political, cultural and economic institutions and employ the diverse methodologies used to examine them. The Juvenile Justice System is an institution in our country that has social, political, cultural and economic implications. Use the theory you chose, (theory is a method used to examine the behaviors addressed by the Juvenal Justice System) to explain the behaviors of the juvenile(s), and the response of the court(s)/community to the case. Relate your theory to policy in the Juvenile Justice System at that time or currently.
