How many of the 51 skeletons are remains of children or young men? It was suggested in previous articles that this site was also used as a regular graveyard by the general population and the nearby mental health facility. If all the remains have not yet been analyzed how many of the 31 recorded bodies were children?

Several books have been written by those that were sentenced to what was at one time Florida Industrial School for Boys and later Dozier School for Boys. The stories of the abuse of these boys is heart breaking. Some were sentenced for truancy from school! Check out the site. For those interested…Google: The Whitehouse Boys.

The State of Florida should hold a memorial for lives lost and give a public televised apology to living victims. State investigations into these allegations started arising 100 years ago not long after the "school" opened. However, allegations are always unfounded as in FDOC. The same way use of force in FDOC is justified. And the exact same way any and every possible shooting or any other wrongdoing by a deputy sheriff is always "justified" after investigation by SA office. If you go by Marianna, Fl. The towns people will adamantly deny any of the allegations were occurring And just not possible. I guess a person can make themselves believe whatever they want to believe.you Yes, there are some folks responsible who are still alive, albeit old as heck.

I believe there should be an investigation and as mentioned in another comment that if there are staff still living today they should be investigated as part of this operation. These poor children had to suffer at these bullies hands. May God rest their souls. This is a very sad story.

I still believe that there are living staff members who could be brought to justice. I wonder if the staff rosters and files for that period are public record?
