MIAMI (AP) - Florida officials have finished investigations into how more than 40 children ages 5 to 17 were shocked with stun guns during demonstrations at three Florida prisons.
The Department of Corrections released the investigation reports Tuesday.
They give additional information about the incidents, where children, ages 5 to 17, were shocked in April on "Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day."
As a result of the demonstrations three Department of Corrections employees were fired and two resigned.
As part of demonstrations at two prisons, children held hands in a circle, and one was shocked with the stun gun, passing the shock around the circle. At another prison, children were shocked individually.
None of the children were seriously hurt or taken to the hospital.
