[QUOTE="DDD, post: 83402, member: 35"] I have followed it quite closely. The boot camps were FINALLY eliminated from the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice system. I am so disillusioned by the Justice system that I now qualify for the title of "far left liberal"!! (As a former DAR officer and registered Republican, that's quite a change.) NO 14 year old should be treated as that boy was treated. NO kid should be treated like that and darn few adults need to be treated like that. The boot camp is closed. The parents of the boy have been compensated. The "system" wants NO publicity...especially on Court TV with the film showing all those adults contributing to the death of the boy. The citizens in North Florida allegedly think the parents should be satisfied with the $$'s and let it go. I wish I had the time and energy to start an advocacy group that could get enough clout to protect children. It's one thing to punish but it's quite another to use brute force to "teach" the kid who's boss. It's a travesty. DDD Maybe I'll apply for a McArthur Foundation grant in my old age. I really could make a difference with some funding! [/QUOTE]
