Penn. Judges Bribed To Send Kids To Prison?

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a more appalling story about the judicial system.

The Associated Press is reporting that two Pennsylvania judges have been charged with accepting millions of dollars in bribes to send teenagers to two privately run youth detention centers.  And for petty crimes too.  The story mentions one young girl sent to prison for lampooning her assistant principal on the girl’s MySpace page.

I’m not sure there’s anything I need to add.  Just unbelievable.
