An End to Youth Violence?

Fatal violence doesn't limit itself to the inner city. A recent high profile trial involved college students from the suburbs, a small town campus and a deadly brawl. Ending violence--or at least altering the cycle of violence that many victims fall into--involves more than just an anti-gang task force or tougher sentencing guidelines. Monday morning at 9 we talk with victims of violence from Northeast Ohio and others about importance of individual action and why listening can be as important as the law.
