Overview
The United States is the only country not to have ratified the International Convention on the Rights of the Child and minors are tried as adults, from the age of 9 years. This investigation, carried out in two prisons, in Texas and Utah, shows their daily life. Journalists were able to meet young detainees, including a 16-year-old boy sentenced to spend four decades behind bars. The latter tells about his daily life in the cell and the means he uses to last until his release.
