North Carolina House lawmakers on Wednesday approved legislation that would automatically send 16- and 17-year-olds who commit violent crimes straight to adult court.
The changes would rework some bipartisan juvenile justice reforms that took effect over four years ago addressing 16- and 17-year-old offenders.
