(first incident was at 14).

If they are gender fluid and identifying as female, I would think the sentence would be carried out on a teenage girl unit. I don't know how that could be safe. Extra staff - a 1:1 for the duration?

I'm not aware of any programs for teen girls that would meet this level of acuity. Certainly, it would not meet the treatment needs.
