Teens who say they are housed in troubling conditions at a Kentucky youth detention center have filed a class-action, federal lawsuit.

The lawsuit includes new allegations of alleged abuse at Adair County Juvenile Detention Center, including playing the Spanish version of the song “Baby Shark” on a loop for a juvenile held in isolation.

Other allegations in the lawsuit include a child held in an insect-infested room, girls not given feminine hygiene products and a suicidal child held in a padded cell without a toilet and left for weeks, soiled in their waste.

The lawsuit also claims staff exposed teen girls’ naked bodies to members of the opposite sex.

Those claims are on top of several others exposed by WAVE, including teens not being fed, not being allowed to take showers, being restricted from contact with their parents or attorneys, receiving no education and instances of alleged physical abuse at the hands of staff.

You can't get away with it just because they're teenagers, "kids" so to speak
