A Pennsylvania grand jury released a report that said a juvenile detention center in the state had a "dangerous lack of oversight." People were sexually harassed and beaten by guards.
A new report says a southeastern Pennsylvania county ran a juvenile detention center where troubled teens were beaten up by guards, sexually harassed, and locked in seclusion for long periods without a court order.
Despite uncovering a culture of violence, “sexually inappropriate conduct” by male detention staff, and cover-ups, the grand jury chose not to recommend criminal charges.
