THE VIOLENCE AND MEDICAL NEGLECT OF OUR YOUTH CONTINUE  AT THE YOUTH STUDY CENTER.
Independent investigators found potentially life-threatening conditions in direct violation of safety regulations including locked fire doors with no available keys, children with serious medical conditions denied medication and lack of medical health services to suicidal youth. In the last 3 weeks alone reports include:
- children beaten by guards including hits to the face with belt buckles 
- girl taken to hospital was prevented from contacting parents and they were also not notified
- at least two suicide attempts  
 
A CRITICAL EVENT - FAIRNESS HEARING BETWEEN JJPL and the CITY
Judge Lemelle will be presiding over the fairness hearing in the class action lawsuit JJPL filed against the city for unconstitutional conditions of confinement in YSC, towards negotiating a settlement process between JJPL and the City of New Orleans.
