Episode 1: Devon, Kenneth and Kentrell Part I. Devon expects his record to be wiped clean at 18, but finds out the law isn't that simple while, brothers Kenneth and Kentrell face years of foster care placement because of their behavior. Devon was arrested on a bench warrant for missing a previous court date. Devon claims this was because he thought once he turned 18, his juvenile record would be purged. Truth is, Devon still had some music to face in Judge Bonaventura's courtroom, and this time around, she has no sympathy for his current predicament.
From the confines of America's juvenile detention facilities to the razor wire of juvenile prison to the heart pounding juvenile courtroom hearings where everything is on the line, Cradle To Jail explores where juvenile crime begins, how it evolves, and what's at stake for kids, families and professionals in the system.
