178. The Administration of Justice in the Youth Criminal Justice System (with Jodi Koffman and Hillarie Tasche)

Host Sabrina Dueck is joined by Jodi Koffman, a Senior Crown Attorney for the Manitoba Justice Prosecution Service, and Hillarie Tasche, a staff attorney at Legal Aid Manitoba, to discuss working in the Youth Criminal Justice System in Canada. Both guests specialize in youth crime and have worked together on many of their files. In this honest discussion, Jodie and Hillarie reflect on their experiences working together and the implications of young people in the criminal justice system and how important it is to divert them therefrom. They end with advice for those law students interested in working in criminal law, and more specifically, with youth.
