[NBC 10:00] This Child Is Rated X
NBC News examines juvenile justice and children's rights in America. Unlike the law, this special differentiates between two kinds of juvenile offenders - the innocent child who has done something that is a crime only because he is a child (truancy, runaways) and the guilty child who has committed an actual crime. The hour documents the failure of the system to dispense equal justice to black and white, rich and poor, or distinguish between the neglected child and the delinquent. Written, produced and directed by Martin Carr.
