ALBANY, NY (12/20/2013)(readMedia)-- Bruised, bloodied and beaten...just another day at Brookwood Secure.
Violence at OCFS's Brookwood "Secure" is out of control. Staff being brutally attacked, youths brutalizing each other and gang violence spiking. For years, CSEA has been calling attention to the dangerous conditions at state-run youth facilities across New York. OCFS Commissioner Gladys Carrion has done NOTHING. When the youths are not busy beating each other up or brutalizing staff, they are treated to parties, toys, like x-boxes and shopping trips to the mall.
