Penn. Judges Plead Guilty To Taking Bribes For Placing Youths in Privately Owned Jails 1 of 2

An unprecedented case of judicial corruption is unfolding in Pennsylvania. Several hundred families have filed a class-action lawsuit against two former judges whove pleaded guilty to taking bribes in return for placing youths in privately owned jails. Judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan are said to have received $2.6 million for ensuring juvenile suspects were jailed in prisons operated by the companies PA Child Care and a sister company, Western PA Child Care. Some of the youths were jailed over the objections of their probation officers. An estimated 5,000 juveniles have been sentenced by Ciavarella since the scheme started in 2002. We speak to two youths sentenced by Ciavarella and to Bob Schwartz of the Juvenile Law Center.

  • Please watch my story"TIFFANY LEBOUEF SEEKS JUSTICE". I have documents to prove my innocence yet no one wants to even acknowledge it. My life has been destroyed.

    Look up PRISON STOCKS....very lucrative....WHO ARE THE INVESTORS???

    I HOPE NOT THE JUDGES AND POLITICIANS.....

    Please help me get my story out there. BTW IF THESE JUDGES NEVER GOT BUSTED IT WOULD HAVE CONTINUED.......UNTIL WHEN, THEY RETIRED.

    How did this get exposed? Who was the one that noticed? There is so much more to uncover

  • oh, i posted it on my BoudicaSlade channel and on RisePatriot but u can see the whole casefile via 3w dot osunrise dot com (stands for Operation Sunrise..put the 3w.. in the URL, not google). Solution to problem MUST start with those on the BOTTOM who daily must carry this crap out. They are easily made to Fear by simply exposing their LOCAL activities to whoever their competition is. Simple really.

  • Look at what wellz fargo did to ME as employee for reporting major fraud to FBI. I obtained the forensics from City of Eugene. You can hear the cops declaring me a crazy jew and then you can hear them pissing in toilet. You can hear the fake 911 call.... I obtained the entire forensic trail because.... i am a crazy jew. it is FAR worse than you ever imagined because the LOCAL POLICE everywhere do the same daily. And..nothing happens to them. It just drops from the news.

  • Can it get any sicker?

  • Anyone who stood by and allowed this to happen should be behind bars including every single individual who complied with or works for this disgusting slave trade racket.

  • OMG! This crap is going on in Clarion County Corrections from what IM hearing!

  • I think they should look into Dauphin County Court House too.

  • I look forward to the 5,000 grown 'youths' getting together one fine day. I want to hear their stories. What a rotten thing to happen to kids!

  • Your comments are all funny, but where were you all a year and a half ago when this actually happened?
