Juvenile detention like any fucking sane place, dorkus.
All of them WERE in juvenile detention already. They were moved out after committing further violent acts against other juveniles.
So again, what do you do with violent teenagers that have already had a chance in a normal juvenile detention center and committed further violent crimes while there?
Can you provide a source on that? Also, you can provide a social worker or professional counselor at the very least. Which this prison promised to do and failed to deliver.

It was roughly 25 kids in juvenile detention already that were too violent for the facility they were in, including breaking out and shooting someone.
Thanks for the additional context! Sounds like Louisiana has an issue with prison management at both adult and juvenile detention centers
Yeah Louisiana is a shithole in a lot of regards. Their prisons are god awful third world hell holes.
I’m absolutely not defending how prisoners, teens or adults, are treated there. It’s abhorrent and the Feds should step in and put some heads on pikes over it.
I’m just saying the article is using “children” pretty loosely here to put an image in your head. These aren’t innocent scared little kids. These are teenagers that have committed very violent crimes including attempted murder.
That’s sadly common across a lot of the South.
I've found there is an overwhelming amount of loud morons in these communities. This is thread has been no different. The downvotes speak volumes.
The demographics here appear to lean heavily towards people with zero awareness of the world outside their bubble with zero curiosity to expand it.
