This makes us sick.

A 19-year-old man was repeatedly raped at the Jefferson County Jail after deputies placed him in a cell with a sex offender who had attacked another inmate hours earlier.

What was the 19 year old in for? He was arrested for failing to complete alcohol classes ordered as part of his driving under the influence plea. It was his first time in jail. He wasn't there serving a sentence or for having committed a crime.

How about the inmate who allegedly raped him?
He was convicted of sexually assaulting another inmate at Mount View Detention Center when he was 13. He has a long record of arrests for theft, robbery, fraud and drug charges, and was sentenced to five years in prison for attempted aggravated robbery in a 2000 Denver case. He had just been convicted by a jury of aggravated robbery the day of the assaults on this kid.

The negligent guards, what's happened to them? "Two deputies were disciplined as a result and documentation procedures put in place to prevent similar problems in the future. "

We hope this kid wins a zillion dollars in his lawsuit. But still, so what, do you think he'll ever get over it as long as he lives?
