While Milestone One allowed you to do background research for your case study analysis, Milestone Two revolves around Jack's case. In Milestone Two, you will assume various legal roles and evaluate the juvenile offender's rights during arrest, the hearing process, and the appropriate options available to enforce upon the juvenile offender.

For Milestone Two, you will submit a 1-2-page draft of Section II of the final project: Jack's Case.

Jack and Diane are each 13 years old and are best friends. On September 12, 2012, Jack asked Diane to meet him at Moe's Convenience Store. While in the store, Jack steals three packs of gum and a candy bar. Jack hands Diane two boxes of candy to place in her purse. Diane places the candy in her purse. The store owner, Moe, notices Diane place items in her purse. As Jack and Diane exit the store, Moe calls their names and runs after them. Jack pushes Moe to the ground and exits with Diane.

Moe calls the police and reports the theft. The police apprehend Jack and Diane a few blocks away from the store. The police only retrieve the boxes of candy from Diane but not the packs of gum or the candy bar taken by Jack. The police escort Jack and Diane to the police station where they question them for two hours regarding the theft. Diane confesses her and Jack's role in the theft. Jack denies any wrongdoing. The police charge Jack and Diane with theft and also charge Jack with simple assault. Their hearings are within the state-mandated time after they are petitioned to appear in the local juvenile court.
