COURT ORDERS 2 JUDGES WHO TOOK MILLIONS IN KICKBACKS TO PAY OUT BIG

HAD BEEN CONVICTED, SENTENCED FOR SENDING KIDS TO PRIVATE PRISONS

A court has ordered two disgraced judges – convicted and jailed for taking
kickbacks for sending kids to a certain private jail – to pay some $200 million
to their victims.

CBS said the order for compensation comes from U.S. District Judge Christopher
Conner and went against Mark Ciavarella and Mark Conahan.

In what became known as a "kids-for-cash" scandal, they "shut down a county-run
juvenile detention center and accepted $2.8 million in illegal payments from the
building and co-owner of two for-profit lockups," the network reported.

In a civil action, Conner awarded $106 million in compensatory damages and $100
million in punitive damages to nearly 300 plaintiffs from the ex-judges.

Ciavarella presided over juvenile court, so had access to many possible victims.
He guaranteed that large numbers of offenders would be sent to PA Child Care and
its related operation, Western PA Child Care.

He even ordered kids as young as 8 years old into detention.

"Ciavarella and Conahan abandoned their oath and breached the public trust,"
Conner said in his order. "Their cruel and despicable actions victimized a
vulnerable population of young people, many of whom were suffering from
emotional issues and mental health concerns."

The two defendants also were cited by the judge for their "breathtaking
arrogance and an unfathomable disregard of due process."

Do these judges deserve their punishment?
Yes No

The report cited some of the oddly extreme sentences handed down by Ciavarella.

He once sentenced a juvenile to 11 months in jail for driving the wrong way down
a one-way street – because that's how many buttons were on her shirt.

"Another juvenile who went in for a release hearing was instead sentenced to an
additional eight months because the teen picked the wrong sports team," the
report said.

The state Supreme Court tried to deal with the issue by throwing out 4,000
juvenile convictions.

According to a report in the Jurist, Conner found, "The law is powerless to
restore to plaintiffs the weeks, months, and years lost because of the actions
of the defendants. But we hope that by listening to their experiences and
acknowledging the depth of the damage done to their lives, we can provide them
with a measure of closure and, with this memorandum opinion, ensure that their
stories are never forgotten."

A commentary at NottheBee noted, "The breathtaking awfulness of their crimes can
hardly be overstated."

It continued, "That kind of depraved evil is hard to quantify. But $200 million
is a decent place to start."

EDITOR’S NOTE: During the Biden era of rapidly metastasizing madness, the
greatest madness of all may be today’s shockingly widespread campaign to
indoctrinate, seduce, groom and flat-out RECRUIT America’s children into the
dark world of transgenderism. Countless LGBT activists, including many
public-school teachers, have taken to proselytizing the new transgender
salvation to America’s children, both on social media and within the schools
themselves. Even Biden’s far-left Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier
Becerra fully supports taxpayer-funded amputations of healthy body parts of
these vulnerable children, declaring ghoulishly, “We should help those have the
life-affirming care that they need.” The result? Untold numbers of America’s
kids are being led into lives of not just unending conflict, confusion,
suffering, deformity and disability, but far too often – as multiple studies
prove – suicide. The whole unbelievable story – including the underlying
reasons, almost entirely unreported elsewhere, for what amounts to the most
massive child sexual abuse campaign in American history – is explored as never
before in the July issue of WND’s critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine,
titled “WHAT’S REALLY BEHIND THE TRANSGENDER CRAZE?”
