I searched about.com for "juvinele jail". I found a few articles that I think can help me with my research paper. I book marked U.S. Prison Population Approaches 1.5 Million and So, Who's NOT in Jail? The first article gave some really great statistics about prison populations. The second article also gave statistics about who is in jail.
