Judge Mark A. Ciavarella, 63, serves as an example of why the private prison industry can do more harm than good. Ciavarella worked alongside owners of private juvenile facilities to ensure that the prison remained occupied. The more prisoners equated to more profits for the owners of the prison. As a result, Ciavarella would sentence offenders with small offenses to months and, at times, years behind bars. He once sentenced a teen to three months in jail for creating a MySpace page that mocked her school’s assistant principal. Ciavarella also sentenced another teen to 90 days in jail after a simple schoolyard fight. But after a federal investigation, it was discovered that Ciavarella and his colleague, Judge Michael Conahan, received more than $2.6 million from privately run youth centers owned by PA Child Care. In 2011, Ciavarella was convicted of racketeering and sentenced to 28 years in prison. He was also forced to pay $1 million in restitution. Once Ciavarella was convicted, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court tossed out 4,000 convictions issued by the judge. Ciavarella appealed to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia to have his 28-year sentence overturned. On July 25, the court denied his request. Ciavarella’s attorneys may attempt to appeal the case before the U.S. Supreme Court.  Source

This is exactly why they spend money to keep us against each other and give us the education of a pre-k student while we are in high school. I am really not surprised by this at all to be honest but i will hold my peace and let yall discuss. Just know t hat i am completely disgusted. Racism isn't dead and Trayvon Martin's case showed us that. Now they just let it all hang out.

Let me know how you feel in the comments below. If i know my readers like i think i do, i have a lot to say.
