A brooding teenager with mind altering powers in a facility that's supposed to be secure... It'd be more than a little dangerous.

That's my point: with the collar on--which he gets at level 2--he's [i]just[/i] a brooding and very typical teenager. It wouldn't make sense to single him out. He has no record of crime or anything save for his parents getting scared.

Levels 2 and 3 are both considered dangerous, but 3 is reserved for someone with a dangerous personality as well. An angsty teenager isn't dangerous without powers. His teenage hormones won't threaten the security of Hawthorn. Putting him on the same level as the criminals in the facility just doesn't make sense.
