For the Public

Horrifically, the staff at Charles H. Hickey School (commonly called the ‘Hickey School’) performed and perpetuated heinous acts of child abuse for the decades in which the facility was operating as a juvenile detention center. 

Tragically, Backbone youth center in Western Maryland was reported to have the highest sex abuse rates in the entirety of the United States and allowed for systemic sexual abuse against children to occur for decades.

Tragically, MacLaren Hall (now referred to as the MacLaren Hall Children’s Center) in Los Angeles County let systemic abuse take place for decades in what was supposed to be a safe living space for children without homes.
