The thing that sucks is, no 11 year old should be arrested unless they’re actively threatening physical harm with a weapon, and three days in solitary on top is just beyond the pale. It sucks that we have to have “perfect” victims before the powers that be dare to take notice, and even then it’s not enough.
So many children let down by this system, who knows how many stories we haven’t heard. And not a god damn thing changes.
