At age 12, Dima al-Wawi is the youngest female to ever be incarcerated
by Israel. She was released Sunday after two and a half months of
imprisonment -- in February, an Israeli military court convicted her of
attempted voluntary manslaughter. That same month, the Israel Prison
Service reported that Israel had 438 minors in detention. Dima was
interrogated without her parents or a lawyer present, and was shackled
during her court sessions. In this video, her mother describes the
al-Wawi family's struggle during her imprisonment and release.
