In a landmark legal decision, a New Hampshire jury awarded $38 million to a man who exposed severe abuses at a state youth detention center, where he was subjected to beatings, rape, and solitary confinement as a teenager. The case highlighted systemic failures and negligence by the state. However, there is significant controversy as the state plans to cap the payment at $475,000, citing legal constraints. This decision has left the jury foreperson 'devastated' and prompted a second juror to clarify the verdict. The victim's attorneys are now demanding a further hearing to address this discrepancy.
