New Judge of Juvenile Court Latimer Aims Reform
J Wilmer Latimer, newly appointed juvenile court judge, seeks a separate courthouse and detention facilities to improve treatment of young offenders. He urges fixed hearing hours to shield children from adult court exposure and emphasizes probation to avoid stigmatizing youth. Latimer, 37, has long tied his career to court work and teaches law at George Washington University.
