mach4 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 My link Here's the story. Thank you! From your link... The highest incidence of staff sexual misconduct occurred in Ohio, South Carolina, Georgia and Illinois, while other states like New York, Massachusetts and Delaware, reported no abuse. At the Paulding Regional Youth Detention Center in Georgia and the Circleville Juvenile Correctional Facility in Ohio, one in three youngsters surveyed said they'd suffered sexual abuse at the hands of staff members.

glassdogs Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Just want to remind everybody that there is ANOTHER Paulding County in Ohio. That article was full of generalizations and not much detail. And it mentioned another facility in Ohio, which made me wonder.

This is survey is particularly troubling. pubby Has the GBI done anything about public corruption sense the state took a biased hit job and was on the bottom of the integrity totum pole, with a big fat "F" in integrity? That was also #1, in the US, if you count from the bottom. I didn't see any GBI activity on that report card, nor did I see any FBI activity regarding that. I did see the ethics board get rearranged because they were trying to do something about corruption. Edited June 7, 2013 by The Postman Link to post Share on other sites
glassdogs Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Yes, but the article does say Paulding County Georgia.....unless I am reading it wrong.....and that is definately a possibility! I saw that, too. But this article is from a news source I'd never heard of before. Not saying it isn't true, but maybe we'd better not light the torches just yet. It would be a lot more believable to me if I saw (or read) interviews with the alleged victim's home towns shown. I have a spidey sense about this. Crappy sensationalism and lousy fact checking is my gut feeling. And you all KNOW how much respect I have for Paulding government. As in ZERO. Part of me hopes I'm wrong and they are a guilty as sin and the lid blows off the whole place. Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I don't know about ALL of them, but there is one who loves to break into peoples homes (regardless if someone is home or not), he also loves to shoot peoples windows out of their cars and homes. His MOM works at the juvenile detention center!

gpatt0n Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 The source is a study/survey conducted by the US Dept. of Justice, I assume under a grant of some sort. Its methodology is based on survey instruments provided to a random sample of youth inmates in the facilities. Here is a PDF of the report I found online. It distinctly says, as noted above, the facility in Paulding County Georgia. juveniledetentionsexualex.pdf As an aside, the regional director of the facility retired (officially) a month or so ago. I know this because he had suffered a heart attack while working and supervising the facilities in Cobb, Paulding and probably Douglas Counties. What little discussion we had, and it was minimal, I got the impression that the challenges facing the management were exacerbated by severe cuts to resources because of cuts in the state budget. pubby Link to post Share on other sites

Eastman, which holds up to 330 boys, had the highest total with 116. Sumter, which holds up to 150 boys, saw 87 report abuse, and 51 reported abuse at Augusta, which holds up to 120 boys. The other figures (which are based on RESPONSES, not inmate populations): Eastman - 24.4% Sumter - 20.8% Augusta - 20.9% http://media.cmgdigital.com/shared/news/documents/2013/06/06/juvenile-report.pdf I would also note that the other three facilities are YDCs (larger by nature - fewer of them [7] and they house longer-term inmates...I call them the "kid prisons"). RYDCs are smaller and there are more of them (20). http://www.djj.state.ga.us/FacilitiesPrograms/fpRYDCAndYDC.shtml Link to post Share on other sites

Once again, Paulding County government has no connection with the Youth Dentention Center which is ran by the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice. I don't care who runs it, it's in Paulding County; is it not?. Are you sating the Paulding County Sheriff's Dept. has no jurisdiction against crime in that county? Most Americans usually deal with law enforcement officials at the state and local levels. For example, each state has a state police force or department and a sheriff's department for each county (or "borough" in New York or "parish" in Louisiana). On top of that, practically every city, town, or village has a police force - whether it's made up of hundreds of officers or just one. How do they all work together? As a general rule, each has authority or jurisdiction to enforce the laws of and within their state, county, or city. So, for instance, a state trooper in State Y doesn't have any authority to enforce State Y laws in State Z; a police officer in City A doesn't have jurisdiction to enforce City A laws in City B, even if A and B are in the same state.

Getting any services to help troubled kids is like pulling teeth in this county. If their parents suck, and the local programs suck....it doesn't mean "we" should throw them in a place to be raped and come out at the age of 18 unstable and uneducated. Pretty much sets them up for failure and future jail time. You do know the juvy officers are big on charging kids for being with someone committing a crime. Lets say a kid drives a kid to Walmart, said kid gets in a fight, they both get the same charges. Edited June 8, 2013 by overit Link to post Share on other sites
