The study comes after a slain Cleveland police officer case draws scrutiny.
The study comes after the juvenile program drew attention tied to the suspect in the slain Cleveland Police officer Shane Bartek murder case.
The program, which stands for “Reasoned and Equitable Community and Local Alternatives to the Incarceration of Minors,” currently offers fiscal incentives to county juvenile courts if they keep their incarcerated youth population down. That funding is then used for alternative rehabilitation programs for juveniles.
It started in 2017 when a then-14-year-old McLoyd was found delinquent in Cuyahoga County Juvenile Court on assault charges and was sentenced to probation, according to county records. On January 13th, the Lorain County Prosecutor's Officer released this statement regarding the handling of Tamara McLoyd's case:
“The Department of Youth Services can do a lot, but with R.E.C.L.A.I.M. dollars with us in communities, we can do more,” board member and Franklin County Juvenile Judge Kim Brown said.
