Youth Suspect Interview Training
Youth custody punishes generic adult scripts. I train reps to confirm appropriate adult attendance, slow consultation, and age-appropriate explanations before any interview plan.

FAQ
What age triggers youth safeguards?
Under 18s require an appropriate adult for most police station procedures. I expect trainees to verify age and AA status on arrival, not assume custody flagged it.
