The passage below is from the U. S. Supreme Court decision In re Gault (1967). From the inception of the juvenile court system, wide differences have been tolerated... between the procedural rights accorded to adults and those of juveniles. In practically all jurisdictions, there are rights granted to adults, which are withheld from juveniles.. [H]istory has again demonstrated that unbridled discretion, however benevolently motivated, is frequently a poor substitute for principle and procedure... Which conclusion did the Court draw from this reasoning?
A. Evidence cannot be presented in a court of law if obtained by police in an unlawful search.
B. States must provide minors accused of crimes with most of the same "due process" rights given to adults.
C. Suspects must be informed of their Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights prior to police interrogation.
D. A person accused of a felony who is unable to afford an attorney is entitled to have one provided by the court.
