Before the Memphis Juvenile Court are a complex variety of cases: foster home placement, drug abuse, armed robbery, child abuse, and sexual offenses. Sequences illustrate such issues as community protection versus the desire for rehabilitation, the range and the limits of the choices available to the court, the psychology of the offender, and the constitutional and procedural questions involved in administering a juvenile court.
