Yet another senseless death

A troubled 14-year-old child was beaten and died at the hands of "officers" at a Florida boot camp. Yes, the boy had been in trouble and broken the law. But is this any way to treat a child? And that is exactly what he was, a child only 14 years old. Anyone else would be in jail right now for child abuse. Surely there is some other way to handle children who break the law. Must they die at the hands of people who are supposed to be there to help them? Trying to say the young man died because of a genetic blood disease is laughable. It is my firm belief that the he died as a result of the beating. It will be interesting to watch this case and see what the final outcome is. To let these people off would be a travesty. These "officers" should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
