U.S. District Judge Christopher Conner ruled in the infamous “cash for kids” case that two judges were liable for over $200 million.

According to AP , the judges took millions of dollars to sencence kids to for-profit jails. Some of the kids involved were reportedly as young as 8 years old. In what came to be known as the kids-for-cash scandal, judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan shut down a county-run juvenile detention center and accepted $2.8 million in illegal payments from the builder and co-owner of two for-profit lockups. https://t.co/0YpRpozJNq — CBS News (@CBSNews) August 17, 2022 CHECK OUT […]
