  1. Kind of reminds you of that movie 'Sleepers' doesn't it? Unknown to many of us, this type of abuse and impunity has been going on inside of youth group homes for many, many years.

    For so long these group homes and so-called reformatories went monitored.

    I can't even begin to wonder how many children lost their lives while in the custody of these types of facilities.
