In this article i have read for homework it talks about how there are many kids doing drugs these days no matter what race they are. They are also saying that a majoirty of them are of the ages or 16,17 or 18 and are treat upon request on where they are placed in the jail system. 17 year old are placed in juvie but can be moved to a adult prison upon their 17th birthday and 18 year olds are automatically transfered on their 18th birthday no matter what because they are of age. They have also witnessed kids at the age of 15 selling narcotics and that means that their driving privilages when they get older are reasoned with. So the way that they have been cracking down and tacking care of this situation has impacts the different ways they are taking care of the situtations.
