Teen curfews

Teen Curfews

Question of Law host Diane Sullivan and guests discuss the different approaches to curfews for teens that cities implement in an attempt to curb crime of that age group.  Why do they appear to not work in many situations?  Why do some cities without curfews have low juvenile crime rates?  Are such curfews constitutional?
