Description

The Virginian-Pilot investigation finds that the Norfolk area locks up half the kids incarcerated in Virginia's jails for teens, but has only a third of the population. The story indentified the causes as tough local judges, a greater mix of car theft and assault among the youths and a bias in the system against poor and black kids, both of which are concentrated in Southeastern Virginia. (Dec. 31, 1995)
