>>> that was john drksz iolio
writing in 1995.
when george w. bush became the
next president, he named jop
diolio to the office of
faith-based.
he named teenage super-predators
that could be predicted at age
7.
the state started locking up
tens of thousands of kid
criminals in adult prisons for
life.
it was very scary stuff about
remorseless superpredators.
he said it was about to happen.
demographically, it was a time
bomb.
here's the juvenile arrest rate
for murder into the 1990s.
he starts writing about that in
1995.
and then his very raeshlized,
very scary predictions coming
just over the horizon, they did
not pan out.
and then, ultimately, john
diolio it back.
in a court filing, john dilulio
had just written back.
he signed a briefing saying he
had been wrong when he predicted
a murderous future for all of
those 7-year-old boys he was so
afraid of.
sorry about the super-predator
thing.
sorry about all of those kids
doing life in an adult prison.
but it turned out the
glassy-eyed...
