What can we learn from the successes of other countries? Today, Hunter spoke with Iliana Pujols to compare and contrast the youth criminal legal system where she works in Connecticut and Norway. In particular, we discuss just how far removed from accepted international practices of youth justice, and what needs to be done to break through the American exceptionalism that stops Americans from learning from other countries.     Guests: Iliana Pujols, Policy Director at Connecticut Justice Alliance, Young Justice Leader Pathfinders for Peace, Justice and Inclusive Societies     Resources: Pathfinders Young Justice Leaders https://www.sdg16.plus/ Contact Iliana iliana@ctja.org Connecticut Justice Alliance https://ctja.org/     Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN

Queensland government officials and whistleblowers have warned that a youth crime crackdown in the state has ‘demonised' young offenders, with a record number of young people funnelled into youth detention. They have raised concerns about blunt policing tactics and brutal conditions in custody, with children locked in solitary confinement for weeks at a time. Guardian Australia's Queensland correspondent Ben Smee speaks to a 14-year-old on the ‘serious repeat offender' index – a police blacklist disproportionately made up Indigenous young people – about life on the frontline of the state's youth crime crackdown

In this episode, RFK National Resource Center's Executive Director, John Tuell, speaks with Bev Hoagland, Chief Probation Officer for the District #3J in Lancaster County, Nebraska. Through their interview, Bev highlights the key elements that led to improved system performance and youth outcomes in Lancaster County. John and Bev discuss the importance of incorporating brain science research in training and policies, the critical role of a program coordinator in probation and youth justice system reform, specific probation and court practices that produced impressive reductions in recidivism with associated positive behavior change among their probation population, and how implementation science assisted Nebraska with improving outcomes and ensuring sustainability of their reforms.

A victims' advocate is joining calls for an overhaul of the youth-justice system. National wants tougher penalties for young people who commit robberies and ram raids. It says while there's been a halving of prosecutions of young people since 2017 – ram raids have increased 518 percent under Labour's watch. Ruth Money told Kate Hawkesby tougher punishments aren't the solution, as there are major systemic issues in the way young offenders are dealt with. She says better resourcing is needed, and it's not as simple as putting offenders through an Oranga Tamariki-run family group conference.

In 2017 some 1,700 young people were sentenced to be incarcerated, and around 70% will have problems with their mental health. Alex Lloyd is a born and bred Londoner from Wapping, and although only in his mid-twenties—he‘s  already a lecturer in Psychology at Birkbeck University London and the University of East London. Alex has been working with young offenders from Hackney and Islington in his role as Community Panel Member of their youth offending team. He engages with young convicted offenders to help them action their community-based sentences, with an objective to help them repair the harm caused by their crime in a process called Restorative Justice. In his role as lecturer, he continues to conduct research on adolescent risk behavior and its link to antisocial tendencies with a focus on making his findings and research actionable and applied to real world. I first met Alex when he gave his impassioned TedX London talk earlier this summer, and his desire to make London a better and safer place for all came through loud and clear. “What we essentially know is that young people are going to try and push boundaries, it’s about giving them the setting to do that safely—and without negative consequences for themselves.” [8:33] In Alex’s TedX talk he explains brain neuroplasticity—the nature of brains to rewire themselves over time due to specific circumstances, behaviors, and life events. The brains of trauma victims are demonstrably different from non-trauma victims, something that has been tested and detected through use of FMRI technology that maps the flow of blood in the brain. The reactions, temperament, and choices ones make can be influenced by this change in brain physiology—triggered by neglect, sexual abuse, and a host of mental health issues and other life events.   [12: 25] Currently, adolescents and youths involved in crime don’t have trauma factored into their trials, punishments, or rehabilitation. Alex has been working hard to make the issue of trauma at the forefront of the discussion about moving forward with how we deal with troubled youth as a society. This ranges from preventative measures such as getting youths engaged in their community—something highlighted by the Dragon Hall Innovation and Technology Hub (http://www.dragonhall.org.uk/innovation/) ; a center where any youth can walk in and have access to 3D printers, VR technology, and learn to code and engage with up and coming technologies that aren’t fully positioned and staffed in society yet.   “It’s not just the case that we can describe one rule for why people get into crime.”   [35:40] Alex is also a huge proponent of the Restorative Justice Framework—an idea that those who commit crimes and the victims of those crimes can benefit from communicating after the fact. The ideal outcome is for apologies and reparations to be given to the victims of the crime by the one who perpetrated it. It’s an incredibly powerful tool when a youth has to contend with the personal individual nature of their crime—something they may not have considered when they either vandalized property or engaged in other illegal behaviors that they may see as only hurting society at large, not an individual. Alex is continuing down his path of helping youth engage in their communities by finishing his PhD—and he is set on making sure his research goes out and effects public policy, societal awareness, and gives troubled youth a foothold to make positive change in their lives.   Links Alex.lloyd120@gmail.com (mailto:Alex.lloyd120@gmail.com) Alex_Lloyd93 (https://twitter.com/alex_lloyd93?lang=en) Support this podcast
