Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the state of Georgia, juveniles can be charged as adults in certain circumstances. Georgia law allows for the transfer of certain juvenile cases to adult court, including cases involving serious violent offenses, such as murder or aggravated assault, and certain drug offenses. The decision to transfer a juvenile case to adult court is generally made by a judge following a hearing.
