Second chance: More than 160 local teens kept out of adult prisons with Raise the Age law
More than 160 teens have been kept out of adult prisons in Henderson, McDowell and Polk counties since the implementation of a law in December 2019 that raised the age at which juveniles can be charged as adults. 
Before the law, 16- and 17-year-olds facing nonviolent charges could be charged as adults and sent to adult prisons.

North Carolina sends 6-year-olds to court. Why some say it's time for change.


The 6-year-old dangled his legs above the floor as he sat at the table with his defense attorney, before a North Carolina judge.
He was accused of picking a tulip from a yard at his bus stop, his attorney Julie Boyer said, and he was on trial in juvenile court for injury to real property.
The boy s attention span was too short to follow the proceedings, Boyer said, so she handed him crayons and a coloring book.
I asked him to color a picture, she said, so he did.
He didn t know it, but no matter what the judge decided, the experience could change the boy s life, experts say, from how he sees the court system to increasing his chance of getting into trouble again and being sent to alternative school. ....
