Kids In Prison Then & Now - 13 Years After Time In The Restraint Chair
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 เม.ย. 2024
- In 2008 our cameras captured unprecedented footage inside a maximum-security juvenile prison as teens lived their lives behind bars. This video looks back at a prison "cell extraction" as a teen prisoner refused to give guards a broom he has in his cell. Fearful the teen would use the broom as a weapon against himself or staff, the prison assembled an extraction team to remove the teen from his cell and placed him in a time out chair.
Following the filming of this process, the newly-hired prison superintendent changed the climate and culture inside the prison and implemented a new policy to cut down on the use of physical force by staff. A 2024 update on the teen featured in this video is included at the end of the video, along with footage of how the prison implemented the "Care Team" -- verbal de-escalation methods to better deal with future situations involving teens behind bars.

Broken systems = broken families, children, neighborhoods = more funding
Money given to them is the problem, not the answer.
The woman at the end said she has had kids come in the system where mom hands them a gun and tells them to steal so she can stay at home. It seems to me in a case like that, mom should be in prison for the boy’s crime and for child endangerment and abuse, and lose custody and the boy should be placed with another family member if possible.
Single mothers with multiple children by multiple criminal baby daddy’s!!
Why should another family be burdened with these children.
@@eleanorcrawford9978 i wrote “if possible “ so I am not saying to force them on anyone. It should be the family members’ choice.
But to answer your question as to why:
1) they are family
2) these kids did the crime because mom told them to. It wasn’t the kids’ idea nor the kids’ gun, and who knows what mom might have done if the kid didn’t obey. It’s possible the kids felt they had no choice.
3) if family don’t want their own family then foster families definitely want them because that’s how they get paid. They sign up for taking kids from bad homes which almost guarantees kids with mental or behavioral problems. Foster care is not about taking well behaved children from good, loving homes. It can happen but usually it is about taking kids from bad homes and they get paid to do it so they willingly sign up for it.
4) mom committed a hideous crime and should pay for that crime and lose all parental rights. And the kid should be given another chance but putting him in another family that will hopefully teach him right from wrong. Prison won’t teach him right from wrong. That’s not what prison does.
@@stst77 you're right some kids don't deserve such parents' bless them
I went to prison at age 17, been to prison, 4 times. But people can change. I live a totally different lifestyle now and raised my children to be the complete opposite. I'm so proud of all my grown children how hard they work and how productive they are. At least I know I did something right.
When you guys go into these jails how do you deal with all the chaos?? My anxiety goes up just watching how chaotic it is I can't imagine what it's like being there in person....
@jenniferhalf1650 - thank you for asking that question. It’s actually difficult to describe. Unlike reality tv that is scripted, we go into these facilities not knowing what stories we’ll find or what to expect. We are truly like flies in the wall. Because of this, we think the anxiety we might normally feel isn’t so much anxiety as it is bewilderment as to what we might see and who we might meet along the way.
In all honesty, most of those we talk to in these facilities (adult and juvenile) tell us boredom is what gets to them most. Every day is the same. Even though scenes like the one in this video do happen, there is a lot of time inside when there’s not much going on at all. That, too, makes any anxiety disappear.
Again, thank you for your question and taking the time to watch our videos!
I did 3 Weeks In maximum security cell in Bravo wing at the Pinellas County jail. You deal with it because you have too. Not because you want too. You have no other choice. It's ether cope or go mentally insane. Some people are just use to being locked up. Some people deal with it differently. Don't end up there if you can help it. We all have choices.
yes and no cameras
Systematically driving the youth insane
The cells should be sound proof, so the other boys can't hear whats going on, so they can't hype him up!
I think that would have its pros and cons. The pros would be:
1) inmates can’t harass, intimidate, or threaten each other creating fear
2) they can’t hype each other up
3) they can’t plan gang activities, riots, assaults, etc
4) it will reduce noise so inmates can have a good night’s sleep
Cons:
1) this is really major, sensory deprivation. Sensory deprivation can drive a person insane which could cancel out all the pros
2) create more stress leading to more destructive behavior because inmates have no means of communicating or letting off steam with each other
@tonidavis1045 YOU KNOW WHAT THAT WOULD COST US TAX PAYERS/ JUST DO WHAT YOUR TOLD TO DO...
yeah mate and Michelin star meal just to make them calm
poor-poor innocent kids, yeah, man, let me work in two more jobs to contribute to their welfare
He just wanted someone to care and show up for him. Notice how he seemed to change his tune when the CO offered to walk him to class each day.
I worked as a nurse in a juvenile detention for 10 yrs. I have never met so many seeking attention. Whenever I would walk in a room they would all start shouting, Nurse! Nurse! All of a sudden they all had headaches, sore throats, a sore finger etc. What they needed and wanted was a Mom and most of them responded well to 1:1 attention
@@ellybean5868 I completely agree. Sometimes it’s just about being seen, heard and supported. The little things that we sometimes take for granted.
The pleasure the officers seem to experience during the cell extraction is disgusting
Prayers to these young men it makes me cry 🙏🏽

He needs intense therapy and medication
He needed parents.
Another armchair specialist
He needs you bud
He needs LOVE not medication his brain isn’t even fully developed yet
As she talking to this CHILD by far he is not ignorant he talks well and seems to have potential. May God blessed you son.
Dam they got out a whole swatt team to have this teenager offender removed from a cell all because he refused to give up a broom that was sitting in his cell. It would have .made a lot more sense to just take the broom away
That is what I was thinking. That young man sounds like he needs some meds.
Ever hear of a broom being used as a weapon? You obviously have never worked in a correctional facility. I worked in a juvenile detention for 10 yrs, and a broom never would have even been near a detainee's grasp, much less in his cell. You have no idea how someone's life can change in an instance in these facilities thinking "why don't they just take the broom away"... Smh
Doesn't work like that.
Just take the broom away? Oml😂😂
Brooms have been used to S******* people. They need to take it away from him.
"Stop kicking MY door!" By choosing to use the word "my" instead of "the" he made the situation personal for himself and the youth. This is a basic example of how something as simple as staff's choice of words serves to escalate an already-tense situation and reveals a personality trait inconsistent with a positive youth development approach.
@erics362 - very insightful comment. Thank you for pointing that out.
He admitted to having anger issues. He needs mental help as well. Maybe medication.
HE NEED HELP BUT NOT MEDS. HE NEEDS HELP BUT NOT MEDS.
Unfortunately when you commit a crime you don't get that privilege of being sedated. I was locked up for 3 weeks in a single cell just like this guy except I had no choice but to deal with it because banging on the cell door wasn't gona get me free any faster. You ether learn your lesson from ending up there or you become a repeat offender. Some people just don't learn
He has something very traumatic happen to him that he could not deal with, but to express it with anger.
Gotta love all the armchair non professionals who have never even set foot in a place anywhere like this making ignorant comments 🙄
@@feleciagmiller872 possibly🤔
Why does are young people have so much anger , from what I see something is wrong I pray for our young people some of them don't have anyone to talk to or don't know or will not ask for help Keep them in PRAYER 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@karenmealing3882 - Anger seems to be the single biggest underlying factor in so many of the kids we interview. There are a host of factors that often lead to it ... witnessing domestic/neighborhood violence, abuse, neglect, etc. etc. A child's brain is forming in those early years and research proves that exposure to all these things are more literally wires the brain differently. We wish we had the answer to solving it all. Sadly, it truly does take an entire society. Thank you for watching and caring.
@@CalamariProductions I know I see it all the time where I live sometimes it's comes from home some adults need help mentally children are raising children just keep them in prayer I know what you are saying 🙏 of course 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ask the god of this World. Jesus said who he was.
This type of treatment on a juvenile is pretty bad all of this was so uncalled for. Locking him down to a chair, putting his shirt over his face terrible these kids get treated like dogs on the streets and then get in the system and it get treated worse. They need to have programs for them and classes for them. A lot of these kids can be rehabilitated they need the resources, job training, prep them for college or skill trades programs how to be young business men. He should not be denied of his education period.
This kid just won't stop 🙏🙏🙏🙏
They need more officers like officer sweat I appreciate how he handled things, & the 2 women who made sure he ate something & were figuring out how they could assist him with school.
A shame his parents couldn’t control him. Now he in jail going crazy. He don’t wanna change acting like that.
@shavongrant4194 - we hope to get an updated interview with him now that he was released from adult prison last year to find out how things are going. Thanks for watching his story.
Segregation for that long is used as torture it accomplishes nothing. Especially for teenagers
it's common for teenagers to exhibit behavioral issues, unfortunately. Discipline is something that builds over time from positive influences in a safe environment. Jail is rarely conducive to that. The case in point, having five armored officers tackle down a teenage boy in a five foot cell, and then strapping him to a chair -- over a broomstick. I understand de-escalation is complicated in a prison setting with an angry, possibly violent offender, but punishments like these just create more frustrated teens.
Do you personally know him? How do you know he doesn’t want to change? It’s easy to sit behind a screen and judge someone you don’t know or walked a mile in their shoes. People can want to change but their environment keeps them from changing
Hope everyone in there do people and get they self together and to go back home with family
lovely scene
Awwh this got me crying
IDK what his crime was to get him in juve (maybe I missed that part), but all this for a teen tearing up a book & holding a broom? The current approach to juveniles in detention IS NOT WORKING. Especially at this age, the goal is rehabilitation.
Kids that age have no concept of how to deal with there emotions. It’s sad that they’re in there so young love goes a long way. These kids need guidance. Best of luck on every inmate in the system change is good guys
Most kids that age know how to manage their emotions MUCH better than this. He’s closer to adulthood than childhood. By his age trillions of people throughout time have been able to marry, hold down a job, plan their future, conduct themselves respectfully, stay out of crime, control their emotions, etc. He is an exception not the norm, thank goodness because I’d hate to live in a society where all older teenagers act like 2 year olds while desiring to kill.
@@stst77BRILLIANTLY SAID!!!
You can do right trust yourself and say I'm going to do better you seem to be very smart so do the right thing I know you can do it sending prayers for you
We should always put it on the parents. Some parents try all they can. Some children just refuse to do right, no matter what. Look where he’s at, and he’s still won’t follow orders. Some children and adults really have mental health issues.
Sometimes that’s true. Sometimes a child is blessed with wonderful parents but turns out bad. Other times they have average or slightly below average parents but not horrible to create monsters, but usually major consistent behavioral problems can be traced back to the parents. Of course, the youth are responsible for their choices too.
@annettealexander567 OH YES BLAME PARENTS THATS A STUPID THING TO SAY/ I KNOW FAMILYS THAT WERE GREAT TO THERE KIDS LOVED THEM TOOK GOOD CARE OF THEM AND THEN WHEN THEY BECAME TEENS THEY ALL WENT ON KILLING SPREES/ ROBBING PEOPLE AND EVEN RAPE/ U CANT ALWAYS BLAME PARENTS MY OWN SISTER HAD THAT HAPPEN TO HER/ TOOK HIM TO DRS/ HEAD DRS/ REHAB 4X/ HE STILL TURNED OUT BAD...
Me I’m children my parents did everything they could
I don’t care what anyone says HES A CHILD who needs love not more trauma this broke my heart I was in the system when I was 12-18 and saw so many horrible things happen in all these places.
He’s a teenager capable of really hurting people and capable of serious crimes. He’s not a little child. However, i do agree this treatment isn’t good.
As for love, everyone needs love but i think what he needs most at this point is intensive rehabilitation in how to cope and deal with life’s problems. How to manage relationships, money and life. How to get and keep a job. And he needs to be taught right from wrong and taught to think about others not just himself and his wants.
He might be a boy but he is also a criminal!!!
Shii don’t matter I got family who younger then 12 doing dumb shit getting locked up stealing cars they know what they doing I love em to death but they put they self into that situation and wit what u said u did what u did so yo ass got locked up
@jacquelineloyaltybella2 / FEEL SORRY? DONT GO AROUND DOING CRIMES AND YOU WONT BE IN THIS PLACE/ HE NEEDED TO GIVE THE BROOM THATS ALL/ THOUGH HE WAS TUFF/ I CAME FROM A BROKEN HOME/ A DRUNK DAD WHO ABUSED MY MOM/ I TURNED OUT GREAT/ NO EXCUSE
All these grown men.. putting this boy in that chair.. crazy work
people dont understand the full story. Yes he was being aggressive and hard headed, but imagine being locked up in a room the size of a bathroom for hours and hours on end everyday for months or even years. Your mental changes, it changes you as a person, some people can't handle that kind of pressure. And these are just kids man. Theyre teenaged kids... These guards are not nice either. Most of them don't give a single shit about these kids lives.
It sounds like some of the guards may have been antagonizing him previously. Behavior may have brought him there, but considering the environment of the jail and their age, the guards, being professional, should not be deliberately inciting any kind of conflict.
@@carolemcdonough8121I didn't see any of that. They did what they could.
@lc6636
It didn't show this in the video. There was mention that he was previously having trouble with some of the guards.
I'm not knocking the prison system because it's unbelievable what they have to do to follow protocol. The thing is, it takes so much effort to de-escalate these situations that it is best to live in harmony.
The guards, being the professionals, should make the first effort. Many of these kids have not been fathered in the proper way. This is just a rule that is helpful to follow.
Fathers, do not provoke your children with trivial or humiliating demands; nor by favoritism; treat them with kindness, so they will not lose heart and become discouraged or unmotivated, with their spirits broken.

I agree it would have an effect, but put himself there no one else

Honestly, many children don’t stand a chance.
Wow this was 16 years ago
I feel so sad for this young man…he sound like a grown man…thank u brother….
The woman in the green can really talk!!!!
This is sad to watch on so many levels🤦🏽♀️
@126missday - we agree, yet so important to illuminate.
Thats a nice guy trying to help this young man
That’s the same man that opened the door for the squad to come in and he is the one that watched everything with no care and instructed the officers to push him down, to restrain him, etc. and he is the one that said he’s not talking to him if he’s not talking right. So how nice and helpful he actually is I don’t know. Why didn’t he show up and try to deescalate things before it got to this point? Why didn’t he call the counselors in before it got to this point?
Some people and things are to damaged beyond repair.
This is so sad I can’t watch 😮
The interviewer seemed surprised when the boy said his father was actively involved and tried to guide him correctly
I meant to say we shouldn’t put it on the parents all the time. My mistake.
The staff was looking around like "why did we agree to have cameras today?! We could have dragged him outta there and explained away the bruises! 😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣
And that would not have helped the situation at all😑
This young man only needed to be loved so sad
Buku grown men huddled up for a teenager is crazy😂😂😂

In case anybody couldn’t figure it out it’s not a game I’m telling you it’s not a game and one more time just in case you didn’t get that it’s not a game😂
I used to work in a state institution where we used ' The Chair '. This was at least 35 years ago when they put an end to this. We weren't the law andthe residents were severely mentally ill. ( That's not what their disabilities were called back the ) It's traumatizing on both sides. My God 🙏🙏

@@user-gk5rg4pq5x thank you
As long as the boy is in a room by himself and not using the broom to harm others, it seems to me like they should have just ignored the boy and his broom. He would have gotten bored with the broom and problem solved. There was no need for making this into such a big ordeal over a broom. It’s like a small child having a tantrum, if you ignore them they realize falling on the ground and kicking won’t get them a cookie so they eventually stop and learn better coping mechanisms, but if you feed the tantrum either the child gets worse or the parents can lose control and get abusive or both. Don’t fight over a broom!
You surely are clueless. Have you ever even been in a correctional facility? Clearly no. A broom is a weapon and should they ignore him while he takes it apart, makes a weapon which can be hidden and then shanks someone, or breaks a window with it and cuts himself with glass, someone walks in and they get bludgeoned on the head?. This isn't preschool. A lot of these kids are violent offenders, murderers, rapists. I worked in a juvenile detention for 10 yrs. A broom would never have been within any of their grasp. Smh
You clearly have never even been in a correctional facility. This isn't preschool. I worked in a juvenile detention for yrs. This kid would never have even been within the grasp of a broom. Many of these kids are violent offenders...murder, rape, home invasion. A broom is a weapon and you think just ignore.. lol. So while you are ignoring, he takes a piece of it and makes a concealed weapon and hides it. What a ridiculous comment
Never been in one of these places, much less worked in one have you? Sure, ignore him and let him make a weapon out of it. Good idea 💡. This isn't preschool
@@ellybean5868 ok you made your point 3 times. Your point is valid and makes sense, but you could have said the same thing in a nicer way and I would have still understood the point and would have respected a kind reply more.
Just because I don’t think like a criminal, it doesn’t mean I’m not a rational person or that I’m a bleeding heart liberal who can’t listen and consider the other side of the situation.
Anyway, I understand your point explains why they did what they did so now it makes sense. I appreciate you explaining why they did it, and after understanding that, I agree now that they really had no choice but to take the broom back especially since he was in the high security unit for multiple incidents of violence.
And I understand why they went in with the riot team because they said in the video because he had a history of violence they expected him to swing the broom at the guards so i understand that too.
It’s unfortunate that that’s the way it is. I don’t think anyone other than a criminal would ever think to do all those things with a broom.
Sitting on that chair for hrs is inhuman especially
Ly when c/o says I love what I do
Everyone making excuses for this kid but hes obviously a troubled teen and loves the Attention he gets from staff and inmates. Makes him feel big and strong but what it really shows is he belongs in a place like this because nobody could control, mentor or guide him. Its sad but the fact is hes likely to spend most his life in institutions and prisons!!?
💯percent agree
Most often prison makes it worse he seems articulate he may need help & medication & care.
Yo this the place i went yo ad a youth bro Pendleton, in indiana outside the wall in the juvenile prison damn its crazy seeing this video thisbmany years later 24 to he exact damn

An how did he get a broom how did that happen yea is this so they can make a show 😢
Thats way too many people that's why its taking them so long they should have been had him cuffed and out of that cell.
Now that is a damn shame! It had to take 5 of them to get him down! They look like they were scared how long they got them cuffs on him. 😮🤔
I bet you anything that kid didn't grow up with a Father in the house. Way-to-go Single Moms of America !
Special kind of Special people working in prisons wth
What else do you expect them to do all he had to do is give up the goddamn broom

It sure took them a long time to go in to stop the issue. 😳😢
So before public at large seen the violent way staff handle non compliant teens, all the staff think its appropriate and only public outcry made them reevaluate their process???
the broom was family heirloom
He is 16 and such a criminal already, I hope for him that he changes and tries to be a good young man or go to jail forever.
All the men here has the same expression on their face, it’s like here we go with this s-it a no win situation 😊
Where is the MH help for this youth??
Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him

You can look at him and tell he needs to be locked away before he seriously hurts someone one day.
He was released and committed a burglary,he got 13 years
You can tell they really dont want to do this on camera lol but it must be done

"It's pay bank time" simply because of him being disobedient
he's being treated worse than a dog 🐕 any animals 😢 sad 😔
Oh my gosh after being released dude received 13yrs for burglary so he never did learn anything from being looked down in seg which by me listening to him he's a bs'er he asked the cops was it a game that something he should have been asking himself from the time he started getting into trouble was jail and prison was a game 😢 sick sad super pitiful situation child.
Locking teens up and treating them like this has been shown to be unproductive. There is ways to rehabilitate them and have a better success rate. This method does not work and we know this.
@leonessagentile5659 Well everybody has their own opinions but it starts with the person themselves common sense has to be used whenever anybody has been in and out of the system that speaks for itself what type of person they're are it shows that they not comfortable on the outside most of them that been in and out the system for stealing and drugs burglary auto theft and etc normally ends up with a murder charge.

Need s something to keep them occupied , reading , games, drawing, family visit.
@frankiecohron4358 - as the saying goes, an idle mind is the devil's playground. Sadly, a lot of kids get no family visits at all. From what we've witnessed over the years, family support and contact is a huge factor in how well kids do. With little hope, support and opportunity, things often go very wrong. We appreciate you watching this video.
Why does it take 15 mins plus (including editing) to put one person in a chair?? & being in S.A.G. for years at a time should be illegal for kids! Their brains are not built for that at a teen age
@celestelegare-haynes8625 - research supports your comment. Segregation is found to not only be mentally and physically harmful, it's also counterproductive. There are other ways to appropriately handle teens who are combative, which is why this prison ended up banning long term segregation and implementing verbal de-escalation methods to cut down on the use of physical force. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
She is really something
Why he got to be yelling
This is so disrespectful jails in general are disrespectful to humans in general there needs to be another system or something or they need to better the system to change lives upon release, not destroy them.
His family must be embarrassed. What a mess.
He probably learned to be this way from his family.
This New kids today 😮 what happened?! These are my generation kids and grandkids, what the hell happened? Our parents and grandparents didn't play! Don't get me wrong there was a lot of kids that was bad but you want to do better so you don't want to pass it down. Plus social media is also the cause. Mental illness is no joke for these kids.🤔
