While this article gives encouragement that the US may be held accountable for its juvenile justice practices, the truth is the United States has not been influenced by the United Nations and has never ratified the United Nations Convention on The Rights of a Child which was enacted in 1990. It is the only member nation, aside from Somalia, that has not ratified this convention. The Convention on The Rights of A Child calls for all compliant nations to focus their juvenile justice practices on education, treatment, rehabilitation and restoration. It also stands against solitary confinement and life without parole sentences for juveniles.
