From our archive: In this full documentary film, our cameras captured stories of teens serving time in one of America's largest juvenile prisons. Viewers on our channel have previously watched some of the abbreviated stories of teens featured in this film, but this narrated documentary illuminates their stories from start to finish. From the military unit to time in segregation, from the high and lows of each step of the process to gain their freedom, our documentaries reveal what it's really like for teenagers serving time in a maximum-security juvenile prison.
Update: John Madden graduated from boot camp. Officer Rick Johnson attended his graduation. He was eventually discharged for medical reasons. John died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 2020 at the age of 30. He was taking college classes at the time of his death.

It is so strange to watch this as a white 47 year old male. I had a normal childhood. Stayed out of trouble, graduated top half of class, got married and was living a productive life. Had an injury and got hooked on pain killers. Lost basically everything and only by shear luck never ended up in prison. I am sober now but still struggle daily. I really feel for these kids that grow up harsh and loveless homes. I still take it one day at a time. So sorry to hear about John Madden. By the Grace of God I didn't pull the trigger but definitely had those aspirations at times. Moved in with my dad before Covid hit and have been helping take care of him. Got out of the city and now live in a tiny town in south Texas area.

Reading that John took his own life broke my heart. The young man in this documentary was so full of hope and promise. The grip that trauma and mental health issues can have on a person unfortunately prevents them from seeing the good in themselves. I hope that John is at peace, and that he now knows the positive impact he's had on others throughout his life.

I will never understand why someone would bring children in to this difficult world when they cannot take care of them. It is abuse and neglect. Really sad.

I'm very impressed with that Care Team girl who put out calming vibes to the "biggest threat" to the facility and got him to de-escalate with a sandwich and love.

That is so STUPID of the military. Why not let them walk out of the facility and go directly into the military??? Ridiculous. That “red tape “ needs to disappear. That Future Soldier program is brilliant. These kids need programs like this.

It’s so true when they say “Discipline your kids or we will!” Do not blame the system, when it’s the parent’s responsibility to raise them and not the states.

I now have the deepest respect for all the staff who show up to work every day and help rehabilitate these kids to become men and provide the opportunity for a successful future, despite the stress and/or injuries they sustain from them.

All I can see is kids whom's parents failed them.

Thank you for this documentary. I show it in class to at risk students so that they don't go to prison. Intervention and prevention are keys to change this nation.

Such a great story and then the ending is so horrible. RIP John

John did look deeply sad. I wondered why his face was so solemn. I only saw him smile one time in this whole documentary and that was when he was hugging his friends goodbye. So sad he took his life.

the problem with these young men are the lack of discipline in home. When I was a child I would get my ass whooped if I misbehaved. Now parents will face criminal charges for disciplining there kids.
