    Recently I was watching Beyond Scared Straight, a show that broadcasts a juvenile crime prevention program that takes place in prisons around the U.S. In this episode a 17-year-old boy, Jerahn, was facing up to 35 years in jail for credit card fraud. Many would agree and say yes that this boy being nearly an adult should be mindful of his own actions and deserves his sentence. While others,like myself, believe that he should receive a less severe punishment and not be tried as an adult. Each…

I also feel that his actions were unethical because a defense attorney’s responsibility is to provide a vigorous and competent defense for their client. Therefore, in this case he fails to do his duty as well as failed to represent his client appropriately because he gave him and his parents the wrong information. It was his job to prevent an innocent person…
