A 15-year-old boy has died in prison after his parents, desperate to curb his behavior, pressed charges hoping a short sentence would change him. Instead, overcrowding placed him in an adult facility, where he was killed in an inmate altercation.
The tragedy has devastated his family and fueled outrage from advocates, who say minors need rehabilitation—not exposure to the dangers of adult prisons. What began as an act of tough love ended in heartbreak, highlighting urgent calls for reform to protect vulnerable youth.
