Juvenile Justice System, juvenile Courts, and Corrections
The given case example refers to a young man known as Jim who could travel through time. Jim has had serious infractions with the juvenile justice system in the recent past. In the case, Jim has the choice to pick between two periods in history. They include the 21st century and the colonial periods in America. The first step is to assess what would happen to him if he were to commit such infractions in the American colonial period. The infractions include breaking and entering with aggravating assault circumstances. In the American colonial period, there are different forms of punishment that Jim would face. There are many differences between the colonial period and the 21st century and thereby the crime would be treated differently.
