Last week, 100 middle school students from St.Coleman Catholic School spent the morning at the central courthouse in Fort Lauderdale. After Judge Tarlika Navarro greeted the group in the lobby, the students went on to watch trials and hearings from 9:30-11 and then engaged in a crime scene presentation and a DUI presentation. This visit has become an annual event, coordinated by Judge Michele Towbin-Singer.
Special thanks to Lewis Defeo and Sergeant John Baker of Pembroke Pines Police and Jose Rada, Executive Director of Broward-Dade Safety Council for the DUI presentation, and BSO Crime Lab technicians for the mock crime scene presentation.
