Juvenile detention facilities often have harsher treatments than jails or prisons. Something about the criminals being young makes people think they need to be treated harsher. I’m remembering shows like “brat camp” and “scared straight” that reveled in the torment of “troublemakers” and would punish them harsher than fullgrown adults who commit worse crimes.
