caeron Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/13/us/13jud...tml?_r=1&em Here is an unbelievable case about a couple of judges who cut a deal with a private company to run juvenile detention in their area... then proceeded to ship out tons of innocent kids to up the money that these companies got in exchange for kickbacks. This story seems like something out of some southern chain gang horror movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TampaYankee Posted February 14, 2009 Members Share Posted February 14, 2009 My sense of justice... sentence these clowns to the total time they sentenced the juveniles they denied due process to and make it hard time, no country club incarcerations. They really screwed up a lot of kids lives for personal greed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caeron Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 I agree. This is such a horrific breach of trust that to just serve 87 months seems way too lenient. I hope the court rejects the plea deal, though I doubt they will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mineallmine Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 A plea deal is just outrageous! they screwed with peoples lives for monetary gain. They should be persecuted to teh full extent of the law and be allowed to stay there till the time is finished being served. It is amazing what they are allowed to get away with!
