Tomorrow three important juvenile justice cases will be heard in the Colorado Supreme Court. It has taken this long for these first cases, which challenge juvenile life without parole sentences based on the national Graham and Miller rulings, to make their way through the appellate process. Amazing and frustrating. We are hopeful that these hearings will result in favorable rulings that will set the tone for future appeals but even more, will cause the government of Colorado to change the laws that allow a juvenile to receive these sentences in the first place. So we hold our breath......and wait.
