What Louisiana youth faced in solitary confinement
In Inside Story’s premiere, our staff writer Beth Schwartzapfel shares what she and reporting partners found at Louisiana’s harshest youth lockup — helping spur new state limits on solitary confinement for youth.

Hear from two young adults who endured round-the-clock solitary as teens, and more about juvenile justice, in the full episode in our Inside Story playlist.
