Do you find the story of Charles Dutton compelling or inspirational? Why do you think we, as a society, prize the idea of redemption so highly?
3. According to the article, many states’ policies dictate that an adolescent offender’s age cannot be taken into account: “‘Judges can't consider it. Juries can't consider it. No one can consider it’” (Paragraph 10). Why do you think such a law exists in the first place? Is this a fair law? In the context of this article, what is fair? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.

Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
