ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on affray and the consequences of this kind of behaviour. The facilitator reads through the offender’s diary and the victim’s diary before asking the young people to focus upon a series of key questions. The offender’s diary describes how Charlie is wound up by his friend Jamal who has recently got off with his girlfriend. This results in an altercation outside Starbucks in the High Street where the two boys engage in a vicious fight. The young people are also asked to consider whether or not the public should or could have intervened in order to stop this fight. The young people are asked to identify what can be done in order to prevent public affrays and what should happen to those who behave in this way.
