The Florida Department of Juvenile Justice closed the Britt Technical Youth Academy, a moderate‑risk residential program for boys in St. Petersburg, without providing public details about the relocation of the youth. The facility was subsequently repurposed for the girls' Les Peters Academy, raising questions about capacity and continuity of services for displaced survivors.

Lawsuits

United States, et al. ex rel. Rodney Brockenbrough v. TrueCore Behavioral Solutions, LLC, et al. 2019 | Filed | United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division | 8:19-cv-02557-TPB-AAS
Rodney Brockenbrough, former chief operating officer of TrueCore Behavioral Solutions, filed a sealed qui tam complaint on October 16, 2019, on behalf of the United States, Florida and Texas against TrueCore, its private equity owner Boyne Capital and related holding companies, the G4S entities that formerly ran the business, and the Henry & Rilla White Youth Foundation. The complaint alleges that the White Foundation posed as the owner of nineteen for-profit G4S/TrueCore youth facilities so they could collect National School Lunch Program money that only nonprofit institutions may receive. It alleges TrueCore quietly left the program in 2018 after a Texas audit, then cut staffing and overtime to make up the lost money, and that Brockenbrough resigned on August 2, 2019. It seeks treble damages and penalties under the federal and state false claims laws. The document shows only the filing of the complaint.
