First and foremost, curfews do not stop the crime rate and in all honesty they don't work anyway. Teens just wouldn’t care about what time they would have to in by and would risk getting caught. If they do get caught then they get a ticket which the parents most likely…

laws and regulations to such an extreme that due process undermines its purpose. There are multiple examples of the system failing and one issue is the proper prosecution of mentally ill convicts. A case that has evoked some outrage is the state of Arkansas medicating a mentally ill inmate, Charles Singleton, to make him mentally competent to execute the death penalty.
