Jfc America, get your shit together.
... Is this not? Lol this is how it's always been.
September 15th?? Why not yesterday??
Because they're not going to be released from prison, they're going to be moved to a different prison. The judge is giving the state a week to find an alternative place and make arrangements for their transfer.
This article put zero effort into explaining why the children were there in the first place, so I went looking.
Some teens escaped from the Bridge City Center for Youth and in response the Governor started sending children there. Same article:
DOC has identified a vacant building on the grounds of the Louisiana State Penitentiary that, with minor modifications, can house many of the juveniles currently at BCCY, while keeping them in separate facilities from adult inmates at all times.
I believe BCCY is juvie of no particular subtype, i.e. we can safely assume these kids committed some crime, but have no basis for speculating what sort of crime.
Heh, minor modifications.
Aka kid modding
Same WTF done with internet today children shouldn't be in prison period and should have been immediately not give them until the 15th so they can continue to be cruel to them or time to appeal his decision.
Why were there children in prison?
#SaveTheChildren huh?
