I grew up in MS and was detained in county juvenile facilities multiple times. It’s awful.
The place mentioned in that article was one of the places they’d threaten you with, and the rumors about what happened to kids there were terrifying. Thank God I never went to one, the county ones were bad enough. That’s where I found out I didn’t actually have any rights.
Can’t believe he pardoned a judge profiteering off of that shitshow.
There it is, you don’t make a grandstand announcement unless you want to misdirect. Largest pardon ever, just don’t look to close.
If you think it’s not that bad, read about a lawsuit against a for-profit Youth Correctional Facility near Jackson, Mississippi.

Mississippi is corrupt af
Judge was from Flordia, just for clarification. However, these facilities and jails are broken. They need massive reform and oversight.
Ah thanks for clarifying, I got mixed up.
