Juveniles are treated differently than adults in the criminal justice system because they are considered to be less mature and responsible for their actions. The focus is on rehabilitation and providing them with opportunities to change their behavior, rather than solely on punishment. This approach recognizes that young people have the potential to learn from their mistakes and become productive members of society.
There is no comparison to be made. Juveniles are juveniles and the law says they should be treated differently from adults, regardless of the charge against them.
Both, if you are using illegal drugs it will be treated as public health because some people might have a drug overdose and criminal justice well because they're illegal drugs. Hope that sort of answered your question:)

Procedural ethics in criminal justice refers to the ethical principles and standards that govern the processes and procedures used in law enforcement, legal proceedings, and corrections. It emphasizes fairness, transparency, and accountability in the administration of justice, ensuring that individuals are treated justly and that their rights are protected throughout the legal process. This concept is crucial for maintaining public trust and legitimacy in the criminal justice system.

Civil law governs acts where there are no prescribed penalties. Marriage, divorce, real estate and probate are examples. Criminal law specifies prohibited acts and penalties for committing those acts. Military law governs only those people serving in the military. Military law is set down in the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Juvenile law is a subset of civil and criminal law that governs how juveniles are treated under these other laws.
The public perception seems to be that, yes, they do get treated differently.
they were treated very differently... very differently... very very differently... some people had to get whipped... whipped cream
Criminals wouldn't be trialed fairly, or they would rome freely. The Innocent could be mixed in with the guiltly and you can put an innocent mans life in behind bars. Or the alternative, the Guilty could be treated as an innocent and could be let go. In conclusion, if we didn't have criminal justice there is no point on having any laws, if justice won't be served.
