Imagine if we took these kids to specialists to get the help they need instead of a boot camp.

OK, there were ten people. One killed in a vehicle collision, one kicked out, one ran away.
Using a percentage is misleading.
It wouldn't publish the overall reoffending rate, but said the majority of the MSA cohort reoffended within two months of release into the community.
30% died, escaped or were expelled
We could all have been killed - or worse, expelled.
