Reform School Girls
I've always had a soft spot in my heart for reform school girls, a couple of my childhood friends spent time in such institutions. If the place these girls are is anything like those places, I have to wonder what they will do when they "mentally evaluate" the chief instigator.

Girls set correctional institute alight, escape
OLOMOUC, North Moravia, Feb 14 (CTK) - Several girl inmates aged about 15 set the correctional institute in Kouty nad Desnou, north Moravia, on fire last weekend and used the subsequent chaos to escape, the local daily Olomoucky den writes today.
The girls set the building alight at three spots in the small hours on Sunday.
"To do so, they used perfumes and sprays. Flames were flaring up when firefighters arrived," investigator Jaromir Ficek is quoted as saying.
Nine inmates made their getaway amid the chaos, but all of them were gradually caught within an hour and returned back.
They, however, did not reconcile themselves with their "failure" and made another incendiary try on Sunday evening.
The second fire was even more serious than the first one, though no one was injured either, said Ficek.
"We explained to the girls what danger they had been faced with, but the girls only laughed at us. I'm afraid they could repeat their attempts," he added.
The institute director Jiri Klaska declined to give any information in view of the inmates' minor age. All girls are 13- 15 years old.
According to well-informed source, the fire's main initiator has been transferred to a nearby mental hospital.
