Judge Throws Out Five Years of Juvie Cases in Scandal from in 'Capitalism: A Love Story'

[hillz0rz91]

If I see that girl in person, I'll kill her.

[PunkBuddha99]

Hillary, you totally deserved it, hahhaha.

[hillz0rz91]

@PunkBuddha99 We should kill her? Agreed?

[LethalJizzle]

GOOD NEWS: The judge who sentenced these kids has been convicted of taking a $1M bribe from the prison builder, and will do 28 years in federal prison. 

[WolfmanMusic]

. The Juvenile court obviously still exists (Lang Island, Suffolk county) and so does GJR, but it's in Penn now. They paint it on the website to be REAL NICE, but people are making money hand over fist (money from taxes) on kids' misery. I'm a witness.

[WolfmanMusic]

I was in George Junior Republic in Freeville, NY in 1976-77. It was a horrible place. I had committed NO CRIME. I was there for 18 months. The court deemed me a PINS (person in need of supervision) because I didn't obey my parents perfectly. That was enough for them to lock me away

[SideburnsThePJ]

Im glad that brat went to jail. Hillary Transue...sounds like a name for white trash.

[hillz0rz91]

@SideburnsThePJ Yeah, lets kill her.

[KurbyDurby]

It seems this also shows that police officers will follow ANY order, no matter what is asked of them. Not one cop stood up in defense of these kids, not one cop.

It also makes me wonder about the people who reported these kids and wanted them arrested. What made these people think these kids would actually get time for example; drawing a picture???

[my89tube]

One thing is for sure: The good judge has earned every inch of dick that will be violently rammed in every orifice of his body throughout the next 12 years.

Have fun Judge =D

[MrRolaids65]

The system goes after the judges but what about the prison officials that payed the bribes?

[suavebone]

This has nada to do w/ parties or capitalism. Whatta bunch of sporadic sh¡t

You ppl aren't mad at the greedy guy, you attack freedom and it's components because it's been abused. Not the shooter it's the gun! Riiigghhht! Idiots! Zero stars

[xadam2dudex]

this also happens to people that are sent to prison for the benefit of the private prison system and even just to make the judges and prosecutors look good to the public.. "tuff on crime" is all these right wing nuts motto..they figure nobody that matters will care just the poor will be destroyed and as we know nobody cares about them

[MrRolaids65]

@xadam2dudex People will never learn, they are to caught up in the hype.

[adrienrain]

@xadam2dudex Nobody ever runs for office on a record of freeing the innocent..............

[turokdarkstar]

Oh right! These kids claim they had their "reputations" destroyed. Utter nonsense. What sort of reputation does one have in high school? The fact of the matter is Chiveralaleeralalllla is diligent and swift in dispensing justice. Sure, he made a buck on the way and didn't really care for due process. But I appeal to the mothers and fathers reading this, think about the children... I mean, don't think about the children... Uh... I lost my train of thought.

[hillz0rz91]

@turokdarkstar What if you or someone you know had been at the mercy of Chivvylala? I bet you'd feel a lot different. I hope, for the sake of mankind, that your future wife is barren.

[Creative1615]

@turokdarkstar you are an idiota

[justinbenson6]

heres a story from my friend who had to face ciavarella in court. the judge says to him "look out that window and tell me how many birds are on that highwire outside", he looks and says "6?", the judge pounds his hammer and says "thats how many months of camp adams you got".

[hillz0rz91]

@justinbenson6 i know your friend, is he from white haven? =P

[justinbenson6]

@hillz0rz91 his names dave shiffert, i think he's from lehighton

[ACEMOM2010]

i need some help with my son too. please read my page.

[hillz0rz91]

You don't get help posting on youtube videos. Contact everyone in your area whom you think might be able to help. A small push can lead to a pretty big shove.

[cruisemissle2012]

Land of the free? I don't think so. Land of profit for the very few at the cost of the freedoms of the majority, the least important, I think so. Fuck America, the war mongering profiteers.

[IfilmORG]

All of the kids that have been abused by the system can do a peaceful march and demand the Judges be prosecuted. And, the money/profits from their incarceration be recovered and distributed among the kids for college tuition, as restitution.

[HiRoader11]

The writing on the walls "capitalism" in the hands of evil's profits & greed has no regard for human life.., History has proven this... Plutocracy 1. governance by wealthy: the rule of a society by its wealthiest people

2. society ruled by wealthy: a society that is ruled by its wealthiest members

3. wealthy ruling class: a wealthy social class that controls or greatly influences the government... Listen to Limbaugh's encourage profits off of illegal immigration& privatizing..

[aarongohn]

Buy a gun and use it. Protect your children from this tyranny.

[tallcoolone1]

the worst crime committed every day is that kids throw away their education and render it a giant waste of money, and nobody does shit to stop them...then you get caught with a stupid little joint and you can be expelled, even if you are on the honor roll. send the dead weight to juvy...stop letting them destroy public education

[AntiChristAntiFail]

This makes me wonder if I was sent to juvie for a week due to the minimum missed days was due to the same thing.

[Badangel30]

So wat r the regular folks doing about this???

[PoincianaHome]

It is horrifying to think that Americans are doing this to OUR future.

[buckwicker79]

those Judges deserve nothing less than Solitary Confinement for 3 years.... you dont steal a Childs freedom for drawing a picture, makin fun of someone or anything else these kids did. They are rutheless Nazi Judges and should be Charged, One day Us the people will oust all these Criminal Judges and police and have bubba rape them with a Broomstick.

[Pituxalina14]

They deserve to be turned into the general population of prisons; let the ABs take care of them! These corrupt judges deserve the rope for this. They are treasonous, traitorous Stalinozionist scumthugs!

[matheus330]

Y2YAY i think you simple, that is freedom of speech but saying your a faggot nigger twat is not freedom of speech that's just pure up hate.

[BlackMambakins]

People need to realise even if its not a privatized company they still get dbl for putting a child in the system than keeping them in school. My son was being told he has to spend 45 days for taking a holloween prop to school. Yes I have hired an attorney cuz I refuse to let this happen to my son. Something needs to be done about this bullshizz with the city in order to make more money will put a child who has never been in any trouble in a place with troubled youths.

[tallcoolone1]

in truth i think the company is bullcrap, but when i hear you say bullshizz i start to think mb your son needs to go away for a while..and what is a prop exactly? a knife? a sword?

[AmericanCritiquer]

Hang the judges.

[palaver3]

Thank God a suit is being filed, I hope justice is served to the hilt and sets a harsh president against such cruelty. I feel so sorry for all those poor kids.

[Boomer1949]

this is unbelievable.

[robertinrinrin]

Judges who do this should have to put a sign in front of their house, just like sex offenders!!!

[rcguy69]

We need citizen's policing of the government.

[Y2YAY]

you aren't going to get that with Obomba and the democrats. they want a big govt. that can't be challenged. now they passed the hate crime bill and Obomba signed it. now people will be arrested for talking against homosexuals and other races. In time the feds will just step in and take you away and you might never be seen again for bullshit charges that you won't even be allowed to defend yourself against. That is big govt. for you! The elites own it all now and they are in control of the govt.

[tylertyler82]

don't talk shit about gays and you have nothing to worry about.

[Y2YAY]

with freedom of speech you are supposed to be allowed to talk shit about anyone you want.

it's okay all the gays and liberals will be arrested for offending religious people when a Republican is on office and you'll have Obomba and the Democrats to thank for it! and the gays will be treated the same way they were treated in Nazi Germany. no one is safe from the tyranny. Not even all those cops that think they can do whatever they want. They will get their just reward for protecting this system.

[tylertyler82]

boo hoo. what a bleeding heart.

[titnut4]

What does that have to do with anything lol.

[titnut4]

DONT TALK SHIT ABOUT TOTAL

[christofchaos]

This has EVERYTHING to do with Capitalism. If it can make a profit, someone will sell it. No matter what IT is. Mike is right. We need a democratic society. I hope to one day see America become the Democratic Socialism that its founding fathers wanted it to be.

[jeffmagic32]

this has nothing to do with capitalism - it is a failure of government

[antifaith82]

this reminds me of a former Howard Stern show regular that , while in lockup at another PA facility (delaware county) that was privatized, died of "natural causes". The company who runs the prison, is coincidentally one of Dick Cheney's companies.

Is this the America our soldiers have courageously given their lives for?

[yoursaxman]

Brings a whole new meaning to "Freedom Isn't Free". These judges and everyone under them should be imprisoned themselves.

[Gharphield]

So that's what Freedom is huh? ... wow ... how utterly shit ...

[booley]

In other news Arizona plans to privatize it's entire prison system.

I have a feeling it will work out much like the above. Though it will probably take years before we hear about it with lots of "they're criminals so who cares?" as a defense.

Funny how when there is a financial incentive to put people in jail, more people end up in jail.

Almost as if the money is motivating those in charge... somehow.

[ANTIDALLARD]

Hey dont break the law, and you wont go to prison...

Calm down, I'm being Ironic. This whole privatised prison system scares the shit outta me. The free market, free for all capitalist system has got to be ended. Soon. For all our sakes

[pokerslut530]

So much for our great American system of checks and balances, eh?

Not only should these judges be taken down, but the prosecutors and all people who oversee what sentences are handed out, et al. There should be a whole slew of people directly held responsible for the amount of life wasted these poor youngsters had to endure.

[haligonian677]

this story just screams the nasty word "Republican"

[JayPhilosopher]

Terrifying that something like this can happen here.

[depenaproductions]

Why don't the arrest the judges and put them in there for safe keeping? That would be a good start. Seriously, I would sue the state or county for allowing that just to hit them where it hurts.

[rollsthepaul]

Apparently the "American way" has taken on a whole new meaning.

[Intransitman]

What's next, gulags in the USA?

[biguy617]

I saw the movie. It was great

[didyouseewhatisaw]

Institutions & prisons should have NEVER been privatized!...  They were privatized then big war on drugs since Regan, They have been lining their pockets ever since! Treating people any way they want for profit!!

[tomdorosz]

Save the money and time. Line the scum up against the wall. I bet the kids that get fucked would love to do it. An empire gets destroyed from within boys and girls.

[PaulLeary]

Our fellow Americans want us in jail. And who are the people who carry these high family values? RepubliCAN'Ts. plutonomy.

[2deluxe58]

"because someone else wanted to make money"

what she said there is so universal

[Bear5177]

Wow. Disheartening. I sincerely hope this poor kids get justice for this disgrace.

[Nenendude]

Michael Moore deserves part of the credit for this..... American Justice in action.

[midgetman433]

what were they arrested for??

[spintch1]

I'm American: A Love Story

[WellIAMScottish]

Sickening. Hopefully these judges and their bribers will be sent to federal prison for long enough that they can deeply reflect on their despicable behavior.

[XtaylorX1337]

they should cut off the judges arms that way he can not ever make a legal descion for some else.

and who is to say where to put some one for a year or 5 years?

Justice is just an Opinion

[KataVideo]

This is exactly as rotten as what happened to the west coast Japanese Americans during the early years of World War II. Unjustly imprisoned, with profiteers selling off their confiscated property.

[Kevinge3]

Welcome to America. If we can't scam you of your money, then lets make money off you.

[imtang0708]

I hope these kids and their parents SUE!!!!

[DojoNDude]

Who knows what will happen when these sick-f#@k judges appeal to our present Supreme Court?  They might even get a medal for "economic innovation"! Elections count. We have to get active!

[Ed76638]

Public hanging of all involved.

[gotilk]

We need to make sure this isn't happening anywhere else. Is anyone looking into it/investigating? Where would someone start?

[gotilk]

When stuff like this happens, there should be grave, terrible consequences for those responsible. I mean, it simply IS worse than dealing drugs, period. At least with drugs, SOME people don't end up hurt. In these situations/crimes, EVERYONE is hurt, every time. It's a disgrace and people like that girl should never have to work another day of her life. This is a DISGRACE!

[DojoNDude]

Make sure your kids see this , so that they understand what path the Republicans would take us down.

[sailfished]

consider joining an alliance between M.M. and the campaign for liberty , we need to form a loose knit unified front to these economic terrorists

[dackjaniels555]

SIEG HEIL! HAIL AMERICA!

[Coelacanth1938]

Break out the guillotines.

[Hereticbooks]

Discusting. I hope the judges get their asses handed to them, and the victims get lots of money.

[TerBeCC]

this is so ridiculous! I feel bad for all these kids, getting put in a situation for as the first girl all about a picture, people draw far worst in school. She draws a simple picture and gets put in a juvie camp just for a judge to get money? WOW..

[RomeoMD25]

O was Big Finances top recipient in 08 to the tune of $40 million. Might explain

why 9 months later there has been virtually nothing done to reign in Wall St's excesses.

[Richardgwm]

Give him the electric chair

[whiskersneighbour]

This is more common than you'd think.

[Prunesqualer]

Ciavarella and Judge Michael Conahan are seeking judicial immunity from civil lawsuits filed on behalf of hundreds of youths they sentenced. I just hope the Judges who oversee these cases don't close ranks and aren't swayed by old boy network thinking.

[ajla0906]

I can believe it. It happens everyday. that is why we have privatized prisons and keep pursuing the war on drugs. lock people up, swat team their house in the middle of the night, and take their kids away because they smoked weed! omg! There was a Cleveland Browns player who drove drunk and killed someone. HE GOT 30 DAYS IN JAIL. My brother is 16 and he is in a juvenile detention center for 6 months for violating his house arrest. The wealthy get away with everything and we get the max sentence.

[pongman]

If only this was China. That judge would hang on center court at Madison Square Garden along with his wife and family. Then and only then would rampant corruption stop in this country. Every kid that judge affected should get compensated from everyone that made money off them.

[DrBones666]

SUE! SUE! SUE!

[smalarkannan]

Thank God
