County Pays For Boot Camp Deaths

As TalkLeft noted here, the State of Florida agreed to pay $5 million to the family of Martin Anderson, who was beaten to death in a boot camp for juvenile offenders. The family's attorney announced yesterday that Bay County will pay an additional $2.4 million to settle claims against the Sheriff's Office, which operated the boot camp.

    Florida a few more years and they'll figure out a way to make beating youthful offenders to death a pay-per-view spectator sport.

    Might as well do somthin' with all those ones stuck "on the reservation".
