| Corrupt judges caught
http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/02/23/...ges/index.html
Short version:
Judges took kickbacks from private prison operators, the more kids they sent to prison, the more money they got. They sent kids away for a long time over very petty crimes, like taking change from unlocked parked cars, stealing DVDs from Wal-Mart, and making satirical pages on Myspace about a vice-principal.
I don't know which is worse, the gangsters, or the law?

Yeah.. that's why the US will never end the war on drugs. The prison system is one, big business, and they need tenants.

Fucking brutal.
Those kids certainly won't ever be the same again. Absolutely ridiculous. Not defending the kids for being delinquents, but they certainly didn't deserve to get sent to juvie or work camps for writing about their vice principal on MySpace...

"The Juvenile Law Center says it first red-flagged Ciavarella in 1999 after discovering that a 13-year-old boy was detained without being read his rights and had appeared in court without a lawyer."
These kids got fucked.

the more powerful the position, the more lucrative the opportunities become. only the tip of the iceberg. think of how many are still getting away with it as we speak
