Justice For Cornelius Frederick
On this edition of Your Call, we're remembering Cornelius Frederick, a Black teenager who was restrained and held on the ground on April 29, 2020 by at least six staff members at the Lakeside Academy, a Michigan youth facility, after he threw a sandwich. He lost consciousness and died two days later.
His family is suing Lakeside Academy and Sequel Youth and Family Services, which operates the facility. Youth facility survivors are remembering Cornelius Frederick and speaking out about the abuse they've endured. They say it's time to shine a light on these facilities across the country.
