Juvenile delinquency is a problem that has faced countless generations, but recently it has taken on increasingly violent and epidemic proportions. In response to tragic armed attacks, the national debate on how to treat children who commit heinous crimes intensified. Collaboration with police departments, closed-circuit cameras, doors that lock automatically, metal detectors, police officers at school and identification badges have increasingly become distinctive features that properly describe an age of school shootings. This article examines the methods available in USA for transferring children into the criminal court. "Extended jurisdiction juvenile prosecutions" originated in Minnesota in the early 1990's". In 1992, Minnesota created a task force which developed a new method for dealing with violent and chronic child offenders, one which blended the rehabilitative nature of the juvenile system with the procedural rights and sentencing potential of the criminal system". Arkansas extended the blended sentencing concept to any child under the age of fourteen and charged with capital murder or murder in the first degree, which no state had done previously and which was a drastic move away from the common law. In the paper are also analyzed the minors who may turn violent from the school harassment. The growing number of U.S. states use a form of blended sentencing, called EJJ prosecutions, in which a juvenile receives both a juvenile sentence and an adult sentence.
Keywords: school shootings, blended sentencing, criminal law, transfer to criminal court, juvenile delinquency.
