Yet another epic failure of the US #Justice system showing #instutionalracism and the total wrong headedness of the #corrections system. They don't "correct" they only punish. Punishment makes sence to a point, but the #deathpenalty has been shown not to work, just look at the number of actual murders is higher than in any developed nation that _does_not_work_.

A 15-year-old #female #black #teen was #fallingasleep during a #courtroom #fieldtrip. She ended up in #cuffs and #jail #coveralls because a #judge said he didn’t like her #attitude.
“You #fall #asleep in my #courtroom one more time, I’m gonna put you in back (holding cells), understood?”
