FistFight...


     


When Kameelah Davis-Spears's son came home after nine months in juvenile detention for getting into a fistfight with a neighbor at school, she thought the worst was over.

Then, about a year later, she was told she owed $12,000 as child support for her son's time in detention.

Charging parents for their kids' incarceration is common in 19 states identified by a new Marshall Project investigation published in partnership with the Washington Post.
