Close them all. We don't need our tax money funding child torture camps

In one instance, five youth in a detention center were strip-searched because one of them might have been charging a vape pen in a computer classroom, the review found. In another instance, a 14-year-old boy was held in a room by himself for more than 10 hours until he consented to a strip search. Another time, a youth was strip-searched three times in one day because staff believed he possessed drug paraphernalia, the report found.

Nothing was found during any of those searches, the office reported.

If prisoners don't like something, it will be used as a punishment and means of compliance.

This is psychological torture, and it's not just an issue when it's happening to children, it shouldn't be happening to anyone

The stress and trauma are just making it even more likely they reoffend.

As per design documents.

The increased likelihood of reoffense is a feature, not a bug.

That is more than three times a day for 270 days.

Just commenting on that thumbnail pic. It's interesting how it could just be a school. By which I mean actual schools and juvenile detention aren't that far apart.

Throwback to the time that some schoolteachers from an American school went through an average day in the exact same environment in the student role (I don't even remember what the original purpose was but it was for some kind of random reason.) They all reported experiencing severe anxiety and hatred by the end of that single day. Having a bell order you around from place to place, having to sit perfectly still for extended lengths of time just listening to someone speaking at you and never saying a word, not being able to drink or go to the bathroom except in these sparse designated time periods, it's fuckin' weird and incredibly unpleasant and stressful. They all had no idea.

School is prison. We need fundamental reform

[–] BertramDitore@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 day ago

Unfortunately there’s a reason for that, many of the same architects who designed prisons also designed schools.
