Chad assault lawsuit heads to court
A fight that started six years ago at a Stockton-area youth prison, igniting statewide calls to reform California's juvenile-justice system, is about to flare up again - this time in a downtown courtroom.
Rather than exchanging physical blows, Narciso Morales, a former ward at N.A. Chaderjian Youth Correctional Facility, and Delwin Brown, a youth correctional counselor, will let their attorneys exchange verbal jabs.
But on Jan. 20, 2004, they physically brawled in earnest.
Grainy images of a fray among two wards and two staffers splashed across national media outlets. The case turned the Stockton complex into a lightning rod.
