Thirty officers at a Southern California juvenile detention facility have been charged for their role in facilitating so-called “gladiator fights” between youth in their care, the state’s attorney general said Monday.

The officers at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall are also charged with child endangerment, conspiracy, and battery, California's Attorney General said.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta alleged some officers promoted, watched and covered up the fights that occurred over a six-month span in 2023.
