This made me cry so hard. A little boy just wanted a (good) family. This was heartbreaking. I'm so happy he has his forever family. God bless him and all the people that helped him.
seriously heart breaking I agree....Its sad that this is where finally someone asked him what be NEEDED, truly needed or wanted out of life.Most of these kids are crying for attention, crying for love and just going about it the wrong way.
Too many children brought into the world for the wrong reasons...love and nurture can make the world of difference, suitable help for these lads before it escalates to this level...I could go on..an act of kindness could change someone's path
@@errickflesch5565 doesn’t matter what she’s been through. She created and raised him so she’s responsible for what she created. I have 4 grown children so I speak from experience. As a parent you have to be responsible for the person you raised. A good parent would be there for their child no matter what they do. His mom might be part of the reason he’s in jail. If he had a parent that raised him right he probably wouldn’t be in jail.
Yeh I hope he has grown and learned that sometimes no matter how hard it may be he can't worry about his mom or friends. He needs to use that newly obtained g.e.d. and go out and show he needs himself first. Learn to love you first young man and make good choices each day. The rest will come!. And the other young man knows his childish antics need to be over. He can do many wonderful things in life if he too makes good choices,loves himself first and grows up. I pray for the huge successes for both these young men.
@@Kenny-mg1bn Charles committed murder some time ago. He will never be released from adult jail. I fear he got messed up with gangs again. It's in the description. Very sad.😢
I really like Superintendent Mike Dempsey! He has a complete and total understanding of Juveniles and the Juvenile System. He has a way of connecting and understanding Juveniles in the jail/prison system that most Superintendent's never gain in 30 yrs of experience. He has great methods and plans of action to not only give juveniles a second chance to actually have a life outside of a jail cell, but great ideas and programs to keep recividism rates at a low.
My heart broke for Charles…What does that teach him? Do the right thing and your family can’t even come and get him after being in jail. I would be hours early if that was my kid.. I really hope where ever he is he has found his way
I praise you guys for being able to go here and listen to these kids stories. My heart bleeds for them. I know some of them may have committed heinous crimes, but the motherly nature in me just wants to provide the love, understanding, and security they so desperately crave.
someone commented that he was sentenced to 147 years for murder about 10 years after this show. idk if it's true or not nevermind, it's definitely true....147 freaking year sentence
Well then why don’t you go and work there and let us know how many you’re able to fix with rainbows and sunshine and or let us know afterwards if you’re locked up for smuggling in contraband after one of these misfits gives you a sad story talks you into it! This is a lifestyle for many and you will not and can not change those are are unwilling to do such!
I feel terrible for Charles as well. When your trying to do right and your own mom doesn't show up on time....that has to feel awful. Both parents are so important but being a mother, I can't imagine not being there for my kid no matter what!!!! I would hv been there a day early to be safe even if I had to sleep in my car.
What happened that Charles’ mom missed his graduation AND didn’t make it to the prison to pick him up on time? Then her phone goes to voicemail after repeat calls from the prison… this is disheartening. And then to learn he ended up in prison again for 147 years… Jesus help this family. 🙏🏼
She probably had a hard time convincing herself to go pick him up knowing the kind of trouble he caused in her life. No one wants to be subjected to that over and over again from their own child.
It’s so unfair for that young man. He didn’t ask to be born and his ridiculous excuse for a mother is the reason he’s spending his life in prison. He had no proper upbringing. His parents should be locked up for neglect.
I remember my little brothers lawyer telling him how lucky he was to have a mom like we have, he said" there's kids out here who's mom's don't even come to their sons court date and some mom's are fucking there sons friend while their locked up " smh it's a fucked up world you'd be surprised the amount of shitty mothers and the even more shitty things they do
@@rlb209 girl shut up, didn’t his mother got him tho ?? She live hours away. And you can’t blame his mother for his actions , you probably train ur kids well but I bet they still does some things you don’t like you can always do well for your kids and they will always do what they want, you got to make kids make mistakes he probably learn now sometimes is there friends and people around their age but don’t put somebody parents in it. Thank youuuu and this is coming from a 19 year old .
I have lived in some of the roughest towns in America at the time. Had lots of opportunities to go the wrong way. Had very little in the way of necessities but I had a wonderful mother, and sister. Great grandparents. They all looked out for me. Gave me advice and made suggestions that are my bedrock today. At 17 I talked my mother into signing for me to go on the Navy. Best move I ever made. I had lots of guardian angels looking out for me. I owe them everything. I am closer to 100 than I am to 50, but I still remember their voices. Family is the most important unit in the United States. Team up with God, and you have total power beside you. We desperately need the Draft System activated in America. Military discipline instills pride and dedication to being all you can be.
Totally agree and thank you for your service. I tried to talk my daughter into going in so she could get the discipline and finish her education with all the benefits and how proud it would be to accomplish however she refused, I can't MAKE her do it...I wish she could see into the future. I still think it's not too late she's 20
I believe he was a repeat offender. He stated that he had been busted at least two times only months apart. That indicates that whatever punishment he received the first time wasn’t successful. Most likely that resulted in the extended sentence of two years.
That boys mother is proving that she is the reason for her son turning to the streets she couldn't be there for him then ignores the calls from the staff my mom did the same tk me but was there for my brother thankfully I had my daughter and changed my life cuz I would never do mine like my mother did me
Charles should have been transferred straight to the military for training and national duty. As hard as it is to say this, the communities kids like him go back to, will inevitably lead them back to crime, prison or worse - death. I feel for him, but his mother not pitching up was an omen, or indication all is not well. I really cry for him. The stats in America are shocking, and quite absurd quite frankly.
@@ptrekboxbreaks5198 obviously he can tell what it's like to not be able to leave. He experiences everything they do so it's not hard to imagine what it would be like to have years in there. He's putting himself in their shoes
That breaks my heart about Charles cuz he seemed like he was going to achieve so much in life and look where he is back again and thank you for the updates be with you calamari ProductionsL♧
@Jude Dimatteo - we were sad to learn about Charles too -- sad for everyone involved. It's why it's important to follow these cases for as long as possible. Appreciate you watching and commenting, as always. Hope you've had a nice weekend!
The way these"adults" treat the kids is not ok. Treating them like crap over every little thing with absolutely zero encouragement? No wonder they act out, I would too.
“Why are these kids acting out” meanwhile the kid is being strapped to a chair, held down, etc for their feelings and not knowing how to properly handle them without teaching them how to deal with emotions correctly
I just watched this video...1/3/2022...I need to let everyone know that both Paul Gingerich and Colt Lundy have been released...I can not say how they are faring thanks to the total lack of empathy extended to them while they were so young but I pray they are living healthy and happy lives
Gosh it’s pretty scary! Although I’ve seen them all I like to re watch. I would not want to work there,must be tough for the staff. I’m glad for all those who make it ! Oh so sad for Charles why would his mother do that to him, if it were my kid I would have been there hours before.
Someone we know works there hes always stressed out says the kids just wild out and how many say they want to go to the big house with their dads. It's sad. Many come from neglect abuse and what notm
Hard call . For me i think about the victims rather than about the perpitrators. While a juvenile offender has a chance to change, a victim of murder or rape or a beating cant change what happened. Its tough but consequnces must be enforced.
No wonder the crime rate is so high when everyone feels sorry for the criminal and is looking to blame everyone but the the perpetrator.. Charles Taylor came across to me as a classic psychopath, he had all the traits and played into the part of good guy, victim like an actor. He was picked up within 3 months of being released on various charges dating back to shortly after his release, and now he's serving 147 years for murder.. Perhaps it's all the victims fault, it can't be Charles's
I feel bad for Michael but at the same time I believe he says what he wants you to hear after looking him up I found out he was back in prison on a burglary charge earlier this year
15:30 that kid should have been in rehab not prison. They need to rebuild the whole criminal justice system in Indiana there penalties cuz the time there handing out to people is ridiculous
@Cynthia david - Very nice of you. Thank you! We're honored to say we have won an Emmy in the past, but most importantly, we hope our videos and documentaries help people understand these systems and these kids a lot better. Thanks again for being such a loyal viewer! Appreciate it very much!!
@@CalamariProductions this is the best juvenile correction type channel on RUclips. Actually this is the only juvenile focused channel that I know of. But any one it's one of the best Corrections focused period. Steadily putting out excellent content. Been loving it...

Just because you can be conditioned to go to war doesn't mean a young brain can handle alcohol. Its not even the same thing lmao. My God we're all screwed with this level of stupidity.
US, states can have alcohol sold to 18 year olds but there is federal funding that gets cut to the state if they choose to. ( my understanding I don’t live in US going off what I have read) also they can go to war kill people but not drink . Merica F yeah
Charles should try out for acting. He looks like he would fit so many roles and he had a smooth charismatic likeness to him where you could get attached to his character and actually care about the character unlike so many other actors today where you can careless whether they die or survive in the movie.
To all the Mothers in these comments who defend Charles Taylor's Mom for not showing up for his graduation, or to pick him up, please take an inward look at yourself as a Mom.
OMFG I was so pissed off at Charles Taylor's mom until she finally showed up to pick him up lol You could see the devastation in his eye, I teared up lol I really hope that young man makes something of himself 👍🏼
Those big egos and attitudes somw of theae kids have will quickly disappear when they shift over to adult prison. They will get that attitude beat out of them in 2.2 seconds. My heart hurts for Charles. His mom should have been there.
Dude... Michael was locked up for minor consumption and a petty theft charge. That is so beyond corrupt. And the way the lady in the blue suit talked to him, I want to slap her in the face. Do they not understand the harm that 2 years behind bars for experimenting with alcohol and stealing one pack of cigs can do to a fucking child??? It's not like this place is rehab, it's forced isolation of a minor for being a damn kid. You could never convince me that the torture and extermination of a person's formative years through forced caging is more beneficial than something as simple as therapy or a father figure could be for a young man... His story is absolutely tragic, I wouldn't be surprised if his lengthy time behind bars for non violent drug offences ended up being a net negative for his life. It must be hard to go back to society without quality friends or a meaningful relationship with a woman. They robbed him of an opportunity to better himself because of simple non violent drug offenses and a petty theft... I'm absolutely disgusted and my heart goes out to him and I can only hope that he didn't allow such a corrupt experience to ruin his chance to be a happy healthy member of society....
Yes Thankyou way too much time for nothing and then when they’re like tell me about yourself never mind shut up you’re making excuses and you’re a child and I’m talking 😡
@@edithbella1018 the way we treat addiction is so wrong. You shouldn't be a criminal for using Chemicals. If anything, society should be open armed, and wanting to help and embrace those that struggle with over consumption. Not to mention the proven psychedelic therapy options that exist like ibogane and ayahuasca that have enormous results in long term remission. Sry I haven't watched the video in a year but those are my relative comments based on my recollection and reading of both our comments in the present day. And to me it just seems important to talk about how wrong the war on drugs is. When you make drugs illegal you just push them into the black market where there is quality quantity unknown and gang violence associated with its distribution. So not only deaths from untested chemicals that WILL ALWAYS EXIST you can't stop the flow of chemicals because they have precursors and I can explain to you how to make mdma with easily obtainable chemicals and vanilla extract so good luck trying to create a totalitarian society where all chemicals and personal activities are monitored. Not gonna work. So it would be better if we ended the war and drugs and work towards erasing the taboo of not knowing and making clear the downfalls of overconsumption in anything from food to drugs to adrenaline....
If any of you boys watch this May God bless you ❤you are made new in Jesus 😊keep trying don’t give up You have a beautiful story always 🙏🏼 I have 3 boys and my heart brakes for each one of you I was raised in the state and always wished to have better I was mean I was ugly hearted and I hated life But now I’m so grateful for my path Always remember God is good all the time✌🏼
Glad to hear you found a way to walk a new path @andy Lynell. We always hope the best for the kids we work with, too. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
Charles appeared to be a successful participant in the programme and to have benefitted from it. Of course he wanted his freedom, though I sincerely hope that he will build on his positive experience on the programme to stay positive and to keep away from gangs, drugs and committing robberies. His mother was genuinely very proud of him and I hope that he doesn't let her or himself down... Edit: Charles is currently serving a 147 year prison sentence.
And why isn’t he waiting for his dad? Perhaps even he knows that Nigga will NEVER come back. Raise child support and I bet this won’t be such an re occurrence
The fact that kids under 17 are put in jail/juvenile prison is part of the problem of why they end up repeat offenders. Jailing a youth is not the answer. Getting them mental health and in a proper facility with real support is what they need.
Locking the kid up for drinking? Omg, this kid is like everyone else... I drank all the time between 14-21 years old. He is locked up because of a Terrible disgusting judge who should be locked up and not on the bench.
Ok I'm confused... Did he say he did 9 months for stealing a pack of cigarettes? Then 2 years for underage consumption and receiving stolen property??? WTF
😂😂😂 ... I am quite sure you are not locked away for stealing a pack of cigarettes, not even in the US! There will be multiple charges and times when he got caught, and NOW the judge finally decided that more action was needed. Of course, this youngsters version sounds more dramatic, but even in the US they are not bold enough to spend tax payers' money on a simple tiny charge like stealing a pack of cigarettes once ...
Administrative board committee is horrible in this institution they know nothing about the street life so how in the hell could they help out these kids they need to get people in here that been through the life the tough street life to be able to understand these kids and where they’re coming from not people that have had normal homes with the rich families and a good education many people straight out from the streets that been through the tough life and trust me you’ll get a better result
How is being cruel to others, help to rehabilitate. It breaks my ♥ when I see this. May God profoundly touch the spirit of all who suffer in this world. Amen.
They throw kids in jail for shoplifting and underage drinking? What a waste of taxpayer money. What's a pack of cigarettes? $6.00? Not enough to lock him up. Punishment doesn't fit the crime.
@Mike Michaelson - Boys School is the term used in Indiana for kids who are sentenced to the Indiana Dept of Correction but still remain in the juvenile system. Being sentenced to "Boys School" means a youth will be sent to one of Indiana's juvenile facilities. Thanks for asking.
Is smoking weed in this state under 21 also minor consumption? Do kids get locked up for drinking beers and smoking cigarettes and joints in this state? This is madness.
Just depends on from this state but I’m from Indianapolis the capital and the police never arrested me for that stuff when I was young they just took em from me or gave me a ticket I’m from one of the worst areas and they’re mostly worried about guns and hard drugs
charles was absolutely failed. it made me tear up because he had been doing so well and this setback was all he needed to go back into this lifestyle. he’s serving 147 years now. he was a product of his environment
I was locked down in a mental health / rehab / conduct center and some of my mates/patients did that. That's because unconsciously they feel so alone and unloved that to be held down is the only way of " physical contact " they get. They feel like protected or "loved" as is the only type of human contact they know. Idk if I have explained myself good (I'm Spanish) but I tried my best sorry
@@carlapv7574 no need to say sorry and your English is better than mine, on point to what I was saying. Hope they all find and accept love with out the need for violence
Charles’ mom pisses me off so badly!!! 😡 He worked hard, was ready to do the right thing, and deserved to feel supported and encouraged! You could see the hope written all over his face. All he wanted was to look out and see his Mom cheering him on from the crowd. He earned that- and she failed him. Failing to show up for him is something, I suspect, she’s done many, many times before. 😢 I bet money that he didn’t tell his family not to visit while he serving his year-long detention. The poor boy is just so used to them not pulling through for him that he wanted to save face by saying that HE asked his family not to come. I don’t care if my son told me that, I’d still show up. Every child deserves at least one person who will always SHOW UP. No wonder he ended up running the streets looking for that unconditional love and support; his family left him high and dry in that department even when he earned their well-wishes and hugs of emotional encouragement! I know that it is very likely this show was shot 10-15 years ago. But if Charles ever happens across this post and reads this, I hope he knows that he deserved better than what he got. And them not showing up says something about who THEY are, not him. He was worth it, he still is, and they let him down. And as much as it had to hurt at the time, and probably still does- that’s okay. In life, you often have accept people for where they are at currently, even if it’s not where you need them to be. You can love your parents/your family without liking or approving of the things they do. You can love them without turning a blind eye to the ways they hurt you. You don’t have to just “forgive and forget.” Instead, learn from it. Take the good parts that they showed you and make that into a part of yourself. And the bad things they did, the ways they behaved that caused you heartache and pain, you learn from those times, from those memories, and make sure to never repeat them yourself! Your family can teach you how you DO want to be as an adult in this fallen world, and they can also be a warning and show you how you DONT a want to be. Each lesson is valuable in its own way. Charles- never give up. God loves you and always has. Diamonds are made through pressure, so see your trials as time to perfect yourself, rather than a burden that was foisted upon you. And when you do overcome all of this and are sitting pretty in life so far away from the negativity of your youth- don’t forget to go back to the younger generation who are experiencing the same trauma you had to deal with, and help THEM. Love is not just a feeling, it is an action. Give back to others the love that God has shown you, because you have a purpose here on this earth. May you find that purpose and may God’s unconditional love act as balm on your heart. Look at the comments, you ARE loved. Even when you didn’t know it.
You can be their until your 22 actually. Well that’s how it was back in my day when I was here . I did 26 months between southbend juvenile correctional facility and Pendleton . Unfortunately I didn’t learn anything and ended up in an adult facility as soon as I turned 18.. that’s all changed though and I cringe at the person I was back then. I’m 100% a different person today than I was back then
I really dislike the way that the Asst. Supt. Linda Commons talks to the one kid at 14:46. I feel like thats not a good attitude to treat them with. This down talking tone where she treats him like he's a bad dog. She asked him to tell his story -- he did. Him sitting there and talking about how he was dumb and he made mistakes is a sign to me that he's AWARE of himself and his actions. How is he making excuses? How is that not him telling his story and giving his slice of what was going on? This person isn't 25, he isn't 45, he isn't 65: he's 18 and he's forced to reflect on his life within a ten minute window and she talks to him like he's less than right away. When she cuts him off and says, "I'm still talking", like this isn't how adults speak in the real world. People have conversations. It doesn't feel fair. Doesn't feel right. This isn't rehabilitation.
Yes Thankyou this is what I was looking for everyone talking about Charles but no one is talking about how that woman was so rude she doesn’t truly believe in rehabilitation she just gets off on being mean to little kids
That's all it's about. It's about power and control over others. Real rehab? Real change? People like this Linda Commons woman don't want that. They want him to keep coming back so they can keep telling him he's wrong and have someone to look down on to make themselves feel bigger and better. It's really sad and pathetic.@@edithbella1018
Imagine how many more children are being concieved during covid-19 lockdowns, due to boredom? They'll never know like when we were truly living, prisoners of a pandemic. My heart breaks for them.
If Alameda county(Oakland California) had that juvenile hall to the US military in the 80s', my life could've been a total 180 than what it turned into. I would've been hella into that program...
@Joe Piro - It's always fascinating for us to see the different programs offered (or not offered) from one facility to the next. Sad that budgets usually dictate what kids do and don't get in terms of programs, counseling and rehabilitation. The more that can be offered, the better the outcomes usually are. Not always, of course, but we're all in favor of anything that can help make a difference! Glad to have you here with us on our channel. Thanks for watching and commenting!

I felt sorry for Charles, but then he went ahead and got into trouble again. What I felt for him went out the window. I hope he stays in prison for the remainder of his years. Safe for him and for society. Many will not appreciate life and freedom.
Oh my goodness what a terrible mother Charles has. I would have gone to pick him up. Damn, most of these kids are in there because of their selfish, irresponsible, careless parents. To see Charles do all that he could do and have his mother destroy him one more time, it’s appalling, I’m disgusted 🤬
yep, she knew her "vacation" away from her "bad" son was over and didn't want to pick him up. I mean cmon, your car broke down AND your phone is off on the morning youre supposed to pick your son up? what an awful parent
Charles Manson was in a boys group home in Plainfield Indiana. They use to put these boys in cottages with families hoping they would be able to see how functional families live. Guess it didn't work for him.
As much as you want to feel sorry for a kid like Charles, I just can't feel sorry for someone that committed murder. Yes, he had a shitty mother, but so did many people and they didn't end up killing someone. Life is about choices, and he kept making the wrong ones.
We dont know charles his life or upbringing whether he was molested or had gang involvement as brightly as he shone and as promising as he seemed in this video.

She probably had a hard time convincing herself to go pick him up knowing the kind of trouble he caused in her life. No one wants to be subjected to that over and over again from their own child.
It’s so unfair for that young man. He didn’t ask to be born and his ridiculous excuse for a mother is the reason he’s spending his life in prison. He had no proper upbringing. His parents should be locked up for neglect.
I remember my little brothers lawyer telling him how lucky he was to have a mom like we have, he said" there's kids out here who's mom's don't even come to their sons court date and some mom's are fucking there sons friend while their locked up " smh it's a fucked up world you'd be surprised the amount of shitty mothers and the even more shitty things they do
@@rlb209 girl shut up, didn’t his mother got him tho ?? She live hours away. And you can’t blame his mother for his actions , you probably train ur kids well but I bet they still does some things you don’t like you can always do well for your kids and they will always do what they want, you got to make kids make mistakes he probably learn now sometimes is there friends and people around their age but don’t put somebody parents in it. Thank youuuu and this is coming from a 19 year old .
I have lived in some of the roughest towns in America at the time. Had lots of opportunities to go the wrong way. Had very little in the way of necessities but I had a wonderful mother, and sister. Great grandparents. They all looked out for me. Gave me advice and made suggestions that are my bedrock today. At 17 I talked my mother into signing for me to go on the Navy. Best move I ever made. I had lots of guardian angels looking out for me.
I owe them everything. I am closer to 100 than I am to 50, but I still remember their voices.
Family is the most important unit in the United States.
Team up with God, and you have total power beside you.
We desperately need the Draft System activated in America. Military discipline instills pride and dedication to being all you can be.
Totally agree and thank you for your service. I tried to talk my daughter into going in so she could get the discipline and finish her education with all the benefits and how proud it would be to accomplish however she refused, I can't MAKE her do it...I wish she could see into the future. I still think it's not too late she's 20
Charles was treated with attention and respect at the facility. Love and encouragement helps ppl build self esteem...
sadly Charles committed murder 10 years later and is serving 147 year sentence. His mother failed him
This kid was locked up for 2 year for public intoxication what law system
I believe he was a repeat offender. He stated that he had been busted at least two times only months apart. That indicates that whatever punishment he received the first time wasn’t successful. Most likely that resulted in the extended sentence of two years.
That boys mother is proving that she is the reason for her son turning to the streets she couldn't be there for him then ignores the calls from the staff my mom did the same tk me but was there for my brother thankfully I had my daughter and changed my life cuz I would never do mine like my mother did me
Charles should have been transferred straight to the military for training and national duty. As hard as it is to say this, the communities kids like him go back to, will inevitably lead them back to crime, prison or worse - death.
I feel for him, but his mother not pitching up was an omen, or indication all is not well. I really cry for him. The stats in America are shocking, and quite absurd quite frankly.
I use to work in a prison I would rather be dead than go to prison it truly sucks
but why would it suck if you're a guard?? you know you don't have to stay there at the end of the day
@@ptrekboxbreaks5198 obviously he can tell what it's like to not be able to leave. He experiences everything they do so it's not hard to imagine what it would be like to have years in there. He's putting himself in their shoes
That breaks my heart about Charles cuz he seemed like he was going to achieve so much in life and look where he is back again and thank you for the updates be with you calamari ProductionsL♧
@Jude Dimatteo - we were sad to learn about Charles too -- sad for everyone involved. It's why it's important to follow these cases for as long as possible. Appreciate you watching and commenting, as always. Hope you've had a nice weekend!

Ah man I didn't see that part. My heart breaks for him. Maybe he just isn't ready. I pray he becomes ready before it's too late
@@CalamariProductions what happened to Michael please?
The way these"adults" treat the kids is not ok. Treating them like crap over every little thing with absolutely zero encouragement? No wonder they act out, I would too.
“Why are these kids acting out” meanwhile the kid is being strapped to a chair, held down, etc for their feelings and not knowing how to properly handle them without teaching them how to deal with emotions correctly
I just watched this video...1/3/2022...I need to let everyone know that both Paul Gingerich and Colt Lundy have been released...I can not say how they are faring thanks to the total lack of empathy extended to them while they were so young but I pray they are living healthy and happy lives
They are doing very well.. Colt is a personal trainer and married
This crazy lady that came with ,,u have a lot of excuses”, like u are CRAZY! What an abuse of power.
These poor kids brought into the world and barely had a chance how heart breaking
These “poor children” wouldn’t hesitate to make you one of their victims.
@@bxi1547 double edged sword
Gosh it’s pretty scary! Although I’ve seen them all I like to re watch. I would not want to work there,must be tough for the staff. I’m glad for all those who make it ! Oh so sad for Charles why would his mother do that to him, if it were my kid I would have been there hours before.
Gives an insight to what homelife, or lack of homelife there may or may not be. Very sad.
Someone we know works there hes always stressed out says the kids just wild out and how many say they want to go to the big house with their dads. It's sad. Many come from neglect abuse and what notm
Great parenting all around. Keep having kids everyone
Hard call . For me i think about the victims rather than about the perpitrators. While a juvenile offender has a chance to change, a victim of murder or rape or a beating cant change what happened. Its tough but consequnces must be enforced.
No wonder the crime rate is so high when everyone feels sorry for the criminal and is looking to blame everyone but the the perpetrator..
Charles Taylor came across to me as a classic psychopath, he had all the traits and played into the part of good guy, victim like an actor.
He was picked up within 3 months of being released on various charges dating back to shortly after his release, and now he's serving 147 years for murder..
Perhaps it's all the victims fault, it can't be Charles's
Breaks my heart. A lot of these kids aren’t bad. They’re a product of their environment.
Unfortunately some juveniles make bad choices even the environment is good and supportive.

15:30 that kid should have been in rehab not prison. They need to rebuild the whole criminal justice system in Indiana there penalties cuz the time there handing out to people is ridiculous
You'd think the prison guards would have a clip board to fill the paperwork out on, instead of the brick wall😲🤣
The little blonde woman on the review board has issues. Why ask a kid if they are nervous and then respond "well you should be"?
Jeez ,...🙄

One of the kids in the beginning, Stedman, was murdered by his gf in 2016. He was 27. Sad to see he never turned his life around. RIP kid.
Seen as a adult at 18 but not seen as mature enough to be allowed to chose if they drink alcohol. Got to love I

I always thought that law was unconstitutional and if I ever get busted I'll challenge it all the way to the supreme court .
Seems like the law move the goal posts for their favour.
Just because you can be conditioned to go to war doesn't mean a young brain can handle alcohol. Its not even the same thing lmao. My God we're all screwed with this level of stupidity.
@@nickhill8612 Do you really think you’d be able to accomplish that in this vast, corrupt institution?
US, states can have alcohol sold to 18 year olds but there is federal funding that gets cut to the state if they choose to. ( my understanding I don’t live in US going off what I have read) also they can go to war kill people but not drink . Merica F yeah
Charles should try out for acting. He looks like he would fit so many roles and he had a smooth charismatic likeness to him where you could get attached to his character and actually care about the character unlike so many other actors today where you can careless whether they die or survive in the movie.
Yeah check the prison for him I think he is available 23 hrs a day
To all the Mothers in these comments who defend Charles Taylor's Mom for not showing up for his graduation, or to pick him up, please take an inward look at yourself as a Mom.
Damn Charles i had high hopes for you my dude come on man
OMFG I was so pissed off at Charles Taylor's mom until she finally showed up to pick him up lol You could see the devastation in his eye, I teared up lol I really hope that young man makes something of himself 👍🏼
Unfortunately, he’s doing 147 years for murder.
Some kids are animals,you have to face facts !!!
Some animals are kids!!!
most keep re-offending because they think it's cool to act tough in front of all the other inmates.
Those big egos and attitudes somw of theae kids have will quickly disappear when they shift over to adult prison. They will get that attitude beat out of them in 2.2 seconds. My heart hurts for Charles. His mom should have been there.
Dude... Michael was locked up for minor consumption and a petty theft charge. That is so beyond corrupt. And the way the lady in the blue suit talked to him, I want to slap her in the face. Do they not understand the harm that 2 years behind bars for experimenting with alcohol and stealing one pack of cigs can do to a fucking child??? It's not like this place is rehab, it's forced isolation of a minor for being a damn kid. You could never convince me that the torture and extermination of a person's formative years through forced caging is more beneficial than something as simple as therapy or a father figure could be for a young man...
His story is absolutely tragic, I wouldn't be surprised if his lengthy time behind bars for non violent drug offences ended up being a net negative for his life. It must be hard to go back to society without quality friends or a meaningful relationship with a woman. They robbed him of an opportunity to better himself because of simple non violent drug offenses and a petty theft...
I'm absolutely disgusted and my heart goes out to him and I can only hope that he didn't allow such a corrupt experience to ruin his chance to be a happy healthy member of society....
Yes Thankyou way too much time for nothing and then when they’re like tell me about yourself never mind shut up you’re making excuses and you’re a child and I’m talking 😡
@@edithbella1018 the way we treat addiction is so wrong. You shouldn't be a criminal for using Chemicals. If anything, society should be open armed, and wanting to help and embrace those that struggle with over consumption.
Not to mention the proven psychedelic therapy options that exist like ibogane and ayahuasca that have enormous results in long term remission.
Sry I haven't watched the video in a year but those are my relative comments based on my recollection and reading of both our comments in the present day. And to me it just seems important to talk about how wrong the war on drugs is. When you make drugs illegal you just push them into the black market where there is quality quantity unknown and gang violence associated with its distribution. So not only deaths from untested chemicals that WILL ALWAYS EXIST you can't stop the flow of chemicals because they have precursors and I can explain to you how to make mdma with easily obtainable chemicals and vanilla extract so good luck trying to create a totalitarian society where all chemicals and personal activities are monitored. Not gonna work. So it would be better if we ended the war and drugs and work towards erasing the taboo of not knowing and making clear the downfalls of overconsumption in anything from food to drugs to adrenaline....
If any of you boys watch this May God bless you ❤you are made new in Jesus 😊keep trying don’t give up You have a beautiful story always 🙏🏼

24:18 All my hats are off to these women, who seem to run the place! That's nice.
Charles appeared to be a successful participant in the programme and to have benefitted from it.
Of course he wanted his freedom, though I sincerely hope that he will build on his positive experience on the programme to stay positive and to keep away from gangs, drugs and committing robberies.
His mother was genuinely very proud of him and I hope that he doesn't let her or himself down...

Damn thats funny bro
Poor kid just waiting for his mom. I hope he does well now.
And why isn’t he waiting for his dad? Perhaps even he knows that Nigga will NEVER come back. Raise child support and I bet this won’t be such an re occurrence
So many would say they are never coming back and they don't say out but a few days and go right back.
The fact that kids under 17 are put in jail/juvenile prison is part of the problem of why they end up repeat offenders. Jailing a youth is not the answer. Getting them mental health and in a proper facility with real support is what they need.
Locking the kid up for drinking? Omg, this kid is like everyone else... I drank all the time between 14-21 years old. He is locked up because of a Terrible disgusting judge who should be locked up and not on the bench.
Ok I'm confused... Did he say he did 9 months for stealing a pack of cigarettes? Then 2 years for underage consumption and receiving stolen property??? WTF
😂😂😂 ... I am quite sure you are not locked away for stealing a pack of cigarettes, not even in the US! There will be multiple charges and times when he got caught, and NOW the judge finally decided that more action was needed. Of course, this youngsters version sounds more dramatic, but even in the US they are not bold enough to spend tax payers' money on a simple tiny charge like stealing a pack of cigarettes once ...
ok thought i was tripping 🤦🏾♂️ wtf
Heart breaking mom didn’t pick him up..now we know he ended up there
He’s back in for murder
A feel good story for Charles... only to find out he offends again, and then becomes a murderer...

Well of course your friends forget about you..your in prison 🤷♂️😂
They throw kids in jail for shoplifting and underage drinking? What a waste of taxpayer money. What's a pack of cigarettes? $6.00? Not enough to lock him up. Punishment doesn't fit the crime.
I've heard the term "boys camp" so many times but zero explanation as to what it even is
@Mike Michaelson - Boys School is the term used in Indiana for kids who are sentenced to the Indiana Dept of Correction but still remain in the juvenile system. Being sentenced to "Boys School" means a youth will be sent to one of Indiana's juvenile facilities. Thanks for asking.
great vids very interesting......I spent 1 night in a police jail cell & that was enough for me to NEVER go back..........
do you tell people you're an ex con? lol
Is smoking weed in this state under 21 also minor consumption? Do kids get locked up for drinking beers and smoking cigarettes and joints in this state? This is madness.
Just depends on from this state but I’m from Indianapolis the capital and the police never arrested me for that stuff when I was young they just took em from me or gave me a ticket I’m from one of the worst areas and they’re mostly worried about guns and hard drugs
I’m pretty sure it’s more to the story than what these inmates are telling. Don’t be so naïve.
charles was absolutely failed. it made me tear up because he had been doing so well and this setback was all he needed to go back into this lifestyle. he’s serving 147 years now. he was a product of his environment

I was locked down in a mental health / rehab / conduct center and some of my mates/patients did that. That's because unconsciously they feel so alone and unloved that to be held down is the only way of " physical contact " they get. They feel like protected or "loved" as is the only type of human contact they know. Idk if I have explained myself good (I'm Spanish) but I tried my best sorry

damn. charles took a turn rqq, i wasn’t expectin that smh.
Charles’ mom pisses me off so badly!!! 😡 He worked hard, was ready to do the right thing, and deserved to feel supported and encouraged! You could see the hope written all over his face. All he wanted was to look out and see his Mom cheering him on from the crowd. He earned that- and she failed him. Failing to show up for him is something, I suspect, she’s done many, many times before. 😢
I bet money that he didn’t tell his family not to visit while he serving his year-long detention. The poor boy is just so used to them not pulling through for him that he wanted to save face by saying that HE asked his family not to come. I don’t care if my son told me that, I’d still show up. Every child deserves at least one person who will always SHOW UP. No wonder he ended up running the streets looking for that unconditional love and support; his family left him high and dry in that department even when he earned their well-wishes and hugs of emotional encouragement!
I know that it is very likely this show was shot 10-15 years ago. But if Charles ever happens across this post and reads this, I hope he knows that he deserved better than what he got. And them not showing up says something about who THEY are, not him. He was worth it, he still is, and they let him down. And as much as it had to hurt at the time, and probably still does- that’s okay.
In life, you often have accept people for where they are at currently, even if it’s not where you need them to be. You can love your parents/your family without liking or approving of the things they do. You can love them without turning a blind eye to the ways they hurt you. You don’t have to just “forgive and forget.” Instead, learn from it. Take the good parts that they showed you and make that into a part of yourself. And the bad things they did, the ways they behaved that caused you heartache and pain, you learn from those times, from those memories, and make sure to never repeat them yourself! Your family can teach you how you DO want to be as an adult in this fallen world, and they can also be a warning and show you how you DONT a want to be. Each lesson is valuable in its own way.
Charles- never give up. God loves you and always has. Diamonds are made through pressure, so see your trials as time to perfect yourself, rather than a burden that was foisted upon you. And when you do overcome all of this and are sitting pretty in life so far away from the negativity of your youth- don’t forget to go back to the younger generation who are experiencing the same trauma you had to deal with, and help THEM. Love is not just a feeling, it is an action. Give back to others the love that God has shown you, because you have a purpose here on this earth. May you find that purpose and may God’s unconditional love act as balm on your heart. Look at the comments, you ARE loved. Even when you didn’t know it.
These people do not look like they are teenagers they look like they’re like 30
You can be their until your 22 actually.
Well that’s how it was back in my day when I was here . I did 26 months between southbend juvenile correctional facility and Pendleton . Unfortunately I didn’t learn anything and ended up in an adult facility as soon as I turned 18..
that’s all changed though and I cringe at the person I was back then. I’m 100% a different person today than I was back then
I really dislike the way that the Asst. Supt. Linda Commons talks to the one kid at 14:46. I feel like thats not a good attitude to treat them with. This down talking tone where she treats him like he's a bad dog. She asked him to tell his story -- he did. Him sitting there and talking about how he was dumb and he made mistakes is a sign to me that he's AWARE of himself and his actions. How is he making excuses? How is that not him telling his story and giving his slice of what was going on? This person isn't 25, he isn't 45, he isn't 65: he's 18 and he's forced to reflect on his life within a ten minute window and she talks to him like he's less than right away. When she cuts him off and says, "I'm still talking", like this isn't how adults speak in the real world. People have conversations. It doesn't feel fair. Doesn't feel right. This isn't rehabilitation.
Yes Thankyou this is what I was looking for everyone talking about Charles but no one is talking about how that woman was so rude she doesn’t truly believe in rehabilitation she just gets off on being mean to little kids
That's all it's about. It's about power and control over others. Real rehab? Real change? People like this Linda Commons woman don't want that. They want him to keep coming back so they can keep telling him he's wrong and have someone to look down on to make themselves feel bigger and better. It's really sad and pathetic.@@edithbella1018

Why call it juvenile detention when it's jail
It’s hard for these kids when they get out cos they get out and right back into the same horrible environment
If Alameda county(Oakland California) had that juvenile hall to the US military in the 80s', my life could've been a total 180 than what it turned into. I would've been hella into that program...
@Joe Piro - It's always fascinating for us to see the different programs offered (or not offered) from one facility to the next. Sad that budgets usually dictate what kids do and don't get in terms of programs, counseling and rehabilitation. The more that can be offered, the better the outcomes usually are. Not always, of course, but we're all in favor of anything that can help make a difference! Glad to have you here with us on our channel. Thanks for watching and commenting!

I felt sorry for Charles, but then he went ahead and got into trouble again. What I felt for him went out the window. I hope he stays in prison for the remainder of his years. Safe for him and for society. Many will not appreciate life and freedom.
well his sentence is 147 years, so I doubt he will be released
If their 18 years old why do they need their parents signature?
Because there still there as a minor I guess kinda like last year of high school still need your mom to leave
What hope is there for these kids when their own parents cant be bothered. SHAME on her
Oh my goodness what a terrible mother Charles has. I would have gone to pick him up.
Damn, most of these kids are in there because of their selfish, irresponsible, careless parents.
To see Charles do all that he could do and have his mother destroy him one more time, it’s appalling, I’m disgusted 🤬
yep, she knew her "vacation" away from her "bad" son was over and didn't want to pick him up. I mean cmon, your car broke down AND your phone is off on the morning youre supposed to pick your son up? what an awful parent
someone said he was sentenced to 147 years for murder 10 years after this show
Charles Manson was in a boys group home in Plainfield Indiana. They use to put these boys in cottages with families hoping they would be able to see how functional families live. Guess it didn't work for him.
As much as you want to feel sorry for a kid like Charles, I just can't feel sorry for someone that committed murder. Yes, he had a shitty mother, but so did many people and they didn't end up killing someone. Life is about choices, and he kept making the wrong ones.
Where’s his father?? Maybe if he didn’t walk out his life he’d be a better man. He has his father to blame.
We dont know charles his life or upbringing whether he was molested or had gang involvement as brightly as he shone and as promising as he seemed in this video.
lol at the kid at the review committee.....it just went downhill so fast lol...I think I've seen this bit before tho and he gets out
No excuses for Charles mom. She better not question why he ended up the way he did. Shame on her smh
