10: Too Young to Be a Murderer? Unpacking the Age of Criminal Responsibility
Update: 2022-07-28
Description
It’s the Season Finale! This week the podcast explores the Age of Criminal Responsibility. At what age can a child be held responsible for their actions? Ruth puts some past cases to Áine involving children who have committed murder, alongside some of the legal scaffolding that dictated how the cases were ruled. The two look at the role that neuroscience and psychology play in this area of law, and what factors and considerations are taken into account when the criminal in question is a child.
Looking forward to diving further into some of these areas in Season Two!
