America's Youngest Sex Offenders
The first programme explores Indiana's Pendleton Juvenile Correctional Facility, where a number of teenagers are serving time for sex offences, including 18-year-old William McConnell, who is being monitored for his predilection for grooming the younger boys in the prison and has already been sent to Pendleton twice before.
America's Youngest Offenders
In episode two, the documentary looks at how, in an effort to reduce the number of children in prison, some US states are trying a revolutionary new approach, with shorter sentences and an emphasis on rehabilitation and treatment programmes. Jason-Caleb Hill was caught breaking into an apartment and stealing a gun. He could be freed within six months if he completes his course. Amanda Artyamsoal was involved in a fatal arson attack that made national headlines. She hopes to be free by her 18th birthday in less than four weeks' time. Cyleina Briggs is spending some of her 10-year sentence at Madison Institutional Facility for girls, rather than an adult prison, while Nathaniel Johnson, 15, has taken 18 months to finish his course - three times longer than most inmates.
