This 10-year-old, R., was brought in from school by a police officer. He had stabbed a schoolmate, but it was unclear what tool he’d used. He was waiting to be picked up by his mom, who couldn’t get him until she got off work, for fear of losing her job.
The documentary photographer Richard Ross will be speaking at Penn State about his recent project on juvenile detention centers.
