New vague definition of “at risk” inbound
Won’t be long before LGBTQ+ is considered at risk.
The medical system was already doing this (to minors and adults) for decades and Democrats and Republicans alike welcomed it in. Child trafficking also was common, often done by groups tied to the Mormon church. Then we’ve had ICE. I’d consider this bill on the verge of passing on the Senate date of March 9th.
Current law generally requires a child committed to the custody of the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services to be released after six months. The proposal would create an exception if the juvenile is accused of assaulting a staff member at a residential placement.
Six months and then can be extended indefinitely. I know minors have no rights, but JEEZ!! I fully expect this to be weaponized against trans youth and become an extension of the School-To-Prison pipeline.
Yep, that feels 100% Constitutional.
Upping the slave labor numbers.
Trans.
I don’t think these guys ever saw the ending to Minority Report.
