Lead author of the study, Robert Brame said, "Arrest is a pretty common experience. The question excluded only minor traffic offenses, so youth could have included arrests for a wide variety of offenses such as truancy, vandalism, underage drinking, shoplifting, robbery, assault and murder — any encounter with police perceived as an arrest. Some of the incidents perceived and reported by the young people as arrests may not have resulted in criminal charges."
Robert Brame hopes the research would alert physicians to signs that their young patients were at risk. He said, "If doctors can intervene, it can have big implications for what happens to these kids after the arrest, whether they become embedded in the criminal justice system or whether they shrug it off and move on.”
