Holder: Study Showing Exposure To Violence Among Children A "Wake-Up Call"

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder refers to a National Survey on Children’s Exposure to Violence conducted by his office as a "wake-up call." The study concluded that 60 percent of children nationwide had been exposed to some form of violence within the past year. The study also found that almost half of those questioned were assaulted, 1 in every 10 suffered abuse or neglect and in 1 in every 16th was victimized sexually. (0:35)
