A state inspection report offers new details on the hours leading up to a 12-year-old’s death at Trails Carolina, a camp for troubled adolescents.

Staff at a North Carolina wilderness therapy camp failed to check that a 12-year-old boy was breathing during his first night at the facility, a state report released Tuesday found.

The boy, who has been identified in law enforcement records only by his initials, CJH, was found unresponsive around 7:45 a.m. on Feb. 3 at Trails Carolina, a camp for troubled adolescents in the western part of the state.

    First, here’s a small story: I had to read Elie Wiesel’s Night in high school. I got a lot out of reading it over two weeks or so in AP English. I gave my copy to Mom, who’s a big reader, and warned her to take her time as it’s painful to read. The next morning she tells me “I read the whole thing last night, then I couldn’t sleep, and now I can’t stop crying.” Mom, I warned you 😓

    Even with my very sheltered life, or perhaps because of it, I have found I need to space these kinds of stories out so that I don’t get overwhelmed. I think elan.school it took me 3 weeks to get caught up and then he finished the series over just a few weeks.

    I’m sorry you went through so much as a kid, yourself. You and Joe are both around the same age as me, too. I hope reading elan.school helps you in some way with your own journey. I’m glad you found it worth the investment of your time.
