The Boy Who Changed the Law

  • 7 years ago
The Boy Who Changed the Law is the story of how one boy used the Human Rights Act to change the way police treat 17 year olds. Since the case he brought, 17 year olds have the right for an appropriate adult (such as a family member) to be present when questioned at a police station.
