Dipter had been sentenced to juvenile detention for a total of five years. The charges against him included the use of illegal substances and his role in running a particular underground organization. He wasn't the only one, several of his close friends were caught up in it too.
Due to their age, their sentences weren't as harsh as they could've been. The court had ruled they be sent to a juvenile detention center instead of prison. For now. But once they came of age, they'd be transferred, no questions asked.
Dipter didn't know how to feel about any of it.
He'd never expected to end up in a place like this.
Back in the real world, when he'd hit a few kids his age, the teachers always brushed it off. Boys will be boys, they'd say with a shrug. Even when things went too far, the worst that ever happened was a scolding or a warning. The police barely paid attention.
