Interview With Judge Corriero Featured in Rise Magazine

Posted: October 1st, 2012 | by Yuval Sheer

On September 18, Rise Magazine, a publication by and for parents involved in the welfare system, published an interview with Judge Corriero. Judge Corriero discussed the importance of the voices of families and youth in our movement:

“Charging children as adults dramatically impacts their lives and the lives of their families. When teenagers are prosecuted as adults, their families do not have the same avenues for participation as they would if the case was tried in family court. In fact, the police are not even required to notify parents that their child has been arrested. The full weight of the law comes down on the child.”
