Hackers broke into the computer network of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice in Tallahassee, which runs the state's juvenile detention centers and programs to steer troubled kids away from crime. It led to a continuing shutdown of the digital backbone the agency uses to manage cases statewide.

The department took offline some of its computer systems as early as March 29 due to what a spokeswoman described as an unspecified security concern.
