Mark Ciavarella, Former Pa. Juvenile Court Judge, Convicted in Alleged 'Kids for Cash' Case - ABC News sorry board, not about Obama and the DOMA. So this judge in PA, is in cahoots with this private company who runs a juvenile detention center, decides he is going to send kid after kid after kid to this for profit place.

What's sad about this, apart from the kid who committed suicide for being sentenced to 6 months for being at an underage drinking party, is that this is happening everywhere. All over America there are penitentiaries who are run by for profit companies, who's only interest is keeping the population at those prisons as high as they can.

Corruption is so rampant in the world I don't know what to think.
Privatizing state prisons in Central Louisiana will save millions, governor says | The Town Talk | thetowntalk.com right on cue. Jindal you suck.
how so. Obviously you think privatizing correctional facilities is a good thing. Just let corporations and business run unchecked, it did wonders for us the past decade didn't it.
I forgot, you are conservative, you enjoy profiting through the misery of others. Get back to me in 5 years after this has had time to completely fail the people. http://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/bja/181249.pdf If you read further, the percentage saved is really around 1%. It's not about saving money, it's about making money for corporations who back campaigns. plain and simple. innocent people will be put in jail because that's how they profit. Headcount.
