    The Youth Justice System: Retribution vs Rehabilitation
    Jun 14 2026

    In this episode of The Youth Verdict, we dive into a often hot topic: the youth justice system. How should society respond when a young person commits a serious crime? Should the system prioritize retribution - punishment that mirrors the harm done - or rehabilitation, focusing on change, support, and future potential? We explore both sides of the argument, the emotions behind them, and what justice really means when the offender is still a child. What is your verdict?
