A teenager has killed himself at one of Scotland’s only young offender facilities, a month after a Holyrood bill intended to prevent under-18s from being sent to prison became law…. His death comes five years after a significant review of mental health services for young people in custody was conducted after a succession of high-profile suicides, and as children’s rights campaigners claimed the Scottish government had been repeatedly warned that continuing to imprison children put lives at risk.
