San Diego County Juvenile Hall is now at the center of a troubling investigation into allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct against minors who were detained at the facility. Survivors have come forward with reports of sexual exploitation, misconduct by staff members, and a pervasive culture of abuse that was allegedly ignored or covered up by those in power. These allegations are part of a larger pattern of sexual abuse within the juvenile justice system, where vulnerable youth are too often subjected to harm by the very individuals entrusted with their care.
