A North Carolina district attorney will not press charges in the case of a 12-year-old who died after wilderness camp staff forced him to sleep in an enclosed, tentlike sack.
Clark Harman, 12, died on February 3 at Trails Carolina, a wilderness camp for troubled adolescents, one of many programs that make up the “troubled teen” industry in the US. Activists have long accused the industry of being abusive and dangerous for attendees, many of whom are taken to programs against their will.
