May Wa and Nam BEAT STREET NEW YORK
Anywhere in the world, these guys have fun. === Meanwhile, in juvenile detention in WA, a 15 yo boy told his 31 yo mother that he had sex while in the detention system. Seeing as his mother had done something similar 16 years before, one might have thought she would have been a bit understanding. But, she probably wants an apology from someone.
Teenage inmates in Darwin detention centre 'orgy' By Phoebe Stewart JUVENILE delinquents had a "sex romp" at a detention centre after staff accidentally left security doors unlocked.
Boys were able to sneak into a girls' dormitory at the Don Dale centre in Darwin after dark.
"About six inmates" - aged between 15 and 17 - took part in the Valentine's Day orgy, the Northern Territory News was told yesterday.
Police were brought in to question the inmates.
A Territory mother said she was "furious" when her 15-year-old son - who is serving three months for a minor crime - told her he had taken part in the jailhouse sex escapade.
"He told me that they had all had sex in the one room - it was a big Valentine's Day sex romp," the 31-year-old mother said.
"The staff on duty that night left the doors open.
"My son said that police had come in and questioned him and some of the girls involved.
"I was furious. No parents have been contacted about this - it had all been kept very hush-hush."
The mother said she rang detention centre general manager Peter Curwen-Walker to demand why she had not been told about the orgy.
"He said a few parents had contacted him about it - he said the incident had definitely occurred.
"He blamed it on staff-to-juvenile ratio but he really couldn't explain how it had happened," she said.
Mr Curwen-Walker told the Northern Territory News that he was not able to discuss the details of individual detainees, but said that one juvenile allegedly involved in the sex romp had been questioned by police.
"I can confirm that a detainee has alleged that an incident involving consensual sexual intercourse has taken place within one of the bedrooms at the Don Dale Centre involving two detainees," he said.
"The matter was referred to the police as soon as the allegation was made."
He said police had spoken to two detainees.
Mr Curwen-Walker said management at Don Dale Centre had treated the report with "great concern".
The mother said her son and the other teens had laughed off the orgy as "fun and games".
But she said several parents were now "in talks" with a lawyer about possibly taking civil action.
"One father of a girl involved said he was going to sue the pants off them," the mother said.
"I just felt that the kids had been put at risk by not being supervised."
A 31 year old mother whose 15 year old son was in juvenile detention. The 15 year old participated in an orgy. Was that very different to what his parents did? Are authorities really responsible for juveniles having sex when parents are not? By all means, improve monitoring of detainees, chastise any guard that left unlocked teens unsupervised, but keep the pants on.
