ANNOTATION: A retrospective examination of "the effects of the juvenile justice system on those juvenile offenders who did not go on to commit serious offenses as adults" is provided (p. 3). Sections contained in this report include: executive summary; introduction; review of the literature; methodology; results; and conclusion and recommendations. "Overall, it appears that these youth (who did not go on to offend as adults) were less likely to have committed crimes as juveniles involving the use of a weapon, experienced lower expulsion rates, were involved in fewer drug related offenses, and reported minimal drug use" (p. 34).
