    I guess there’s the idea of “solitary confinement is inhumane” that people have, against (this decision).

      I don’t understand how it’s inhumane. If the kid is dangerous then it saves other inmates, if he isn’t then it keeps him safe. I would never want to be in gen pop if I got arrested. Just not sure the food is worse.

        It is a multi-faceted issue for sure. Some of those facets are the ones you mention. Another is the general negative effect of solitary confinement, especially on an 11-year-old.
