WA state suspends intake for convicted juveniles
Manage episode 429410229 series 3303135
Where do you put juvenile offenders when correctional facilities won’t take them?
That’s the question many county judges, prosecutors, and law enforcement officials are facing after Washington’s Department of Children, Youth and Families closed both of the state’s youth correctional facilities to new inmates until further notice.
To explain what’s happening and what it means for youth who are convicted of serious crimes, Soundside was joined by KUOW investigative reporter Ann Dornfeld.
