1974 Press Photo Detective Donald Dillon, Jefferson Parish sheriff's officer

How far should police officers go in applying the law to wayward children? Should an officer go by the letter of the law or should he bend a little to help a child? That was the basis of a discussion by delegates to the Louisiana Juvenile Officers' Association's annual conference last week at the Travelodge--West in Harvey. After Detective Donald Dillon, Jefferson Parish sheriff's juvenile officer, completed a talk about runaway children, he led a discussion on how to handle the runaway.
