Harm's way. Lessons of youth violence

Description

Are the increasingly frequent accounts of wanton, often cold-blooded youth violence a reflection of a toxic culture or the problems of troubled, isolated individuals? This program tells the stories of several young offenders from their own perspectives as well as from those of their families and the families whose lives they have irreparably changed. Interviews with social workers, law enforcement and probation officers, psychologists, criminologists, forensic psychiatrists, and, most importantly, the kids themselves offer possible answers to a deeply disturbing problem.
