JUDGE BENJAMIN LINDSEY
• Considered the boys that went
through his court as “his boys”
• Believed that every child is good but
some take the wrong path
• Juvenile justice should strengthen the
child’s chances through support and
encouragement
• Rehabilitation is everything
• Saw the adult court as a “chamber
that victimized children”
