> what's the story here, how old was this kid and why was he in a detention facility? it was the 'kids for cash' scandal from 10 years ago. it was around 2,500 kids over the course of many years. it only got exposed after one of the kids committed suicide and the mother sued, which ended up uncovering the entire plot. the judge made $2mil doing it. he should've gotten a life sentence, but pa is a corrupt shit hole.
