The Making of a Juvenile Delinquent | Byron Williams | TEDxDanielHandHS

What makes a juvenile delinquent? Is it a biological predisposition, a specific environmental stimulus… sheer bad luck? Based on his 20+ years as a juvenile corrections officer in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan, Mr. Williams’ talk will reveal his answer to this question. Byron Williams is a man that has made fatherhood a priority and has released as an author from a lucrative publishing contract prior to the release date. Byron has traveled the world as a professional body guard for Eminem, rubbed elbows with the elite, played collegiate and pro-basketball, and self published 5 books, having done so all after escaping a life of teenage crime in Detroit, Michigan. As a juvenile corrections officer, Byron will talk about the making of a juvenile delinquent. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
