Federal lawsuit seeks to free teen from shelter
A Pittsburgh attorney filed a habeas corpus petition in Western District Court seeking release of a 14 year old boy from Krause Youth Shelter in Lawrence County. The suit names County Children and Youth Services director William Betz and Krause operator Cray Youth and Family Services, arguing the youth is effectively imprisoned with restricted liberty and no end in sight. The boy, identified as C T, left his mother due to safety concerns and was placed in the shelter following police handoff and court orders.
