Description

Real life stories with expert analysis; Case studies and comment; Provides a valuable perspective on youth offending; Contains key messages about youth crime.

The voices of young offenders-the real life stories behind the worrying and sometimes tragic lives of those who get into trouble with the Law.

Setting these within the context of descriptions of youth justice policy, Jackie Worrall conveys to her readers an understanding of how and why young people become offenders going far beyond that to be gleaned from everyday rhetoric and theory.

Why Did You Do It? contains raw, first-hand accounts of young people involved in crime.

These stories cast a different light on youth offending to that so often portrayed by the media, making this new and insightful work a valuable resource for anyone trying to grasp the social, penal or criminological implications of youth crime.

What are the traps that can ensnare young people as they grow up and the triggers which can so easily see them onto the wrong side of the tracks?

In Why Did You Do It? Jackie Worrall sets out their explanations, examines a critical phase in their lives and dissects the political mantra, over-tidy solutions and off-the-cuff responses.
