In this case, a 15-year-old boy, Gerry Gault, of Arizona, was accused in the summer of 1964 of making indecent calls to a neighbor and as a result of an investigation in which he was not informed of any rights, his parents were not notified by the police (the sheriff of the Gila County) of his detention and other similar practices, proper to the tutelary right, his internment was ordered in a correctional facility (the Industrial School of the State) until he was 21 years old). An adult convicted of the same act could have been sentenced to a $ 50 fine or two months in prison.
