Restrained Juvenile Prisoner Settles Injury Claim For $1,000

After filing suit in August 1997, a juvenile female prisoner who suffered
emotional distress and facial bruising while being forcibly restrained by
personnel at the Marygrove Residential Treatment Facility settled her claim
for $1,000.

The girl had alleged in her suit, filed in St. Louis County, that the
defendants subjected her to excessive force during the June 1997 incident,
falsely imprisoned her, and should have known the harmful effects of the
antidepressant drug Prozac which they administered. See: Green v. Marygrove
Residential Treatment Facility, 1998 WL 1166619 (Unknown. State Court),
Case No. 97CC2752.
