There will be specific focus on the law regarding possession of drugs and “spin-off” crimes related to drug addiction, and the law regarding teenage sex and its legal consequences, which may include paternity and child support, and much more. 

 

There will also be numerous examples of local cases, now adjudicated and final, which evidence the very real and serious consequences of criminal behavior. 

 

The second part of the program will include a tour of the housing units at Caddo Correctional Center, where teens and their parents will see, and hear, from inmates.
