A Michigan appeals court this week ruled against a lawsuit brought by incarcerated teens (Michigan is sixth in the nation in the number of teens in prison--so terribly proud) who claimed their civil rights were violated because state officials failed to provide them proper protection from being raped and beaten by other convicts. The court said in essence that the teens got the service they deserved.
For all the gnashing of teeth we have here in the Wolverine State by republicans over the funding of Planned Parenthood so all those babies can be protected, don't count on the Michigan legislature to tackle this injustice any time soon. The prisoners are only getting what they deserve.
Though I'd like to see the passage in their Bible that sanctions the raping of teenagers.
Peace,
