Last week I wrote about the unraveling of the Texas Juvenile Justice System. The problems became public when a judge sentenced an African-American teenage girl to juvenile prison for shoving a hall monitor at school. That same judge freed a white teen who burned down his house.
Once in prison, her sentence was extended for possessing contraband in her cell. Her "contraband" was an extra pair of socks.
After a year of imprisonment, the conservator for the juvenile justice system finally released her.
