Description
Development Arrested is a deep investigation into the racist history and modern inequality of Mississippi’s system for prosecuting children as adults. It is told strikingly in real time as a 13-year-old named Isaiah enters solitary confinement in adult jail for robbing a classmate of his iPhone. It is supported by a first-of-its kind analysis of all criminal charges in Mississippi in the last quarter-century. And it is undergirded by new findings, taken from the memos of Jim Crow legislators and governors, found in the quiet, dusty historical archives of Mississippi.
