PHOTOS: Hofstra Law Professor Treats Students to 'The Trial of Goldilocks'

Mount Pleasant Elementary fifth graders were treated to a presentation of The Trial of Goldilocks by Hofstra University law professor, Glen M. Vogel, Esq., with the aim to make students familiar with the legal system.

Vogel's presentation was an attempt to show students the basics of COnstitutional rights, the workings of the court system, and the elements of a criminal trial, and chronicled Goldilocks' arrest and trial of Goldilocks – from being charged with petit larceny, trespassing, and criminal mischief, to having students and fourth grade teachers act as a jury and decide her fate.
