It is first and foremost a tragedy for the family left behind those two who were killed. I am not to judge whether the mental state of the minors who committed this crime would sent them into residential treatment instead of prison. I guess that the LUC ranch like you state had very little knowledge about what kind of issues these two boys should be treated for.

I have learned that they were sent down there from Detroit. While I am against the parent’s right to place their children in a residential setting without consent or screening from the authorities due to my support for the UN convention of the child, I hope that this tragedy is not the result of a social worker trying to find the cheapest option for a residential placement.

I have a lot of knowledge about residential placements due to my professional work. I also know how the DHS here in Denmark tries to cut corners when they try to find option for special need children. I guess that the DHS in a city like Detroit must face the question of balancing the budget and serve the interest of the children.

But as I stated above I hope that this wrongfully placement of those two boys in a setting clearly not suited to meet the need they have is the result of a ranch management who have successfully fooled the parents who must have been in a desperate situation. Otherwise it is a huge scandal where jobs should be on the line at the DHS.
