Youth incarceration

I was reading an article from the Courier Journal that said, Kentucky has the highest youth incarceration rate in the nation.Is Kentucky full of bad kids or what? However, it is really attributed to a few Kentucky judges that circumvent the system and put kids in jail for truancy, at an alarming rate. What are your thoughts on this issue? Why do we have so many kids in jail? Is there a better way to handle truancy?
Poppa out.
