Event to discuss rules in charging juveniles as adults
LILBURN -- New Mercies Christian Church and the Gwinnett County Minority Bar Association are teaming up to host a community event at the church Wednesday night.
The project, called "Real Talk," is intended to educate students, parents and the public about "current law and procedures that relate to charging youth as adults for specific crimes," said Tuwanda Williams, senior assistant county attorney.
"The purpose of Real Talk is to address concerns about the growing number of youths, some with no prior criminal history, charged with serious crimes that can result, upon conviction, in significant prison terms," she said. The panel members will analyze and discuss skits and scenarios presented depicting young people engaged in "certain behavior," Williams said.
