"Tried as adults, they find trouble instead of rehabilitation and hope....Many of them end up in prisons fraught with abuse, only to be released as more refined criminals." (MIAMI HERALD)  KIDS IN PRISON: YOUNG INMATES REPORT HIGHEST RATE OF ASSAULT -- This article focuses on teenage convicts in adult prisons and relays that juvenile offenders are more likely to be assaulted than their older counterparts. "Some attacks come at the hands of adults, others by juveniles. The weapons of choice: locks stuffed in socks used to smach faces, broom sticks, scalding water, food trays, toilet brushes, handmade knives, bare hands." (MIAMI HERALD)
