The Investigation into The Ware Center for Youth
In this episode of "Bloody Angola," we explore the dark history of the Ware Center for Youth and the just released Louisiana Inspector General findings of the conditions within.
The focus of this initial episode is on a New York Times investigation exposing shocking abuse and neglect at the facility, prompting a call for change that spearheaded an investigation of the Juvenile Facility by then Governor John Bell Edwards.
Allegations of rape, physical abuse and an unusually high number of suicides are covered in this episode.
It is important to note that this episode covers the Allegations made by the New York Times and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this podcast.
