r/prisons

Excerpts:

May the United States take a person who is living freely under American supervision and deliberately transfer him into potentially indefinite foreign maximum-security confinement, without a new judicial determination authorizing that deprivation of liberty?

It is in the selfish interest of the United States to send people away with as much goodwill toward the United States as circumstances permit.

Why are we paying to imprison a plumber when we could be helping put the plumber back to work?

Hello.. I am desperate for help, and need some serious guidance..
I have a family member at the south central correctional facility in TN. We are looking to get an emergency transfer and cannot seem to get any help or even answers on what our next step is. This family member sticks out like a sore thumb… first time offender, never been involved in any gang related activities.. and just not built for what goes on behind those walls… he has not been in there for more than a week and has already had his commissary stolen, he has been jumped, flashed shanks and we are already being extorted for hundreds of dollars for his “protection”. Those inmates run this prison. He was jumped infront of the COs and they did absolutely nothing. He is unable to go talk to the councilor as there is literally an inmate sitting with her. And if you have any type
Of knowledge about how prisons work then you know “snitching” will quite literally get you killed. We are in desperate need of what we can do to get an emergency transfer any help our guidance is appreciated. Thank you. Location: Clifton, Tennessee

This seems wrong to me, especially when they are imprisoned for life.

I have watched murder24/7 recently on the British bsing channel and I'm so angry with what I've learnt - one guy had 17 previous convictions for wounding, assault, domestic abuse, abh, gbh ect - SEVENTEEN - then tortured and murdered a guy who only tried to help him.

This henious creature ( one of many )is serving only about 20 years now - is that 10 with good behaviour!!?!

I digress -

Imagine if the judicial system recognised that prolific violent offenders ( with all their profiling capabilities) that re offending is likely - therefore in the interest of public safety, permanently incarcerate them.

I know of PPO 's which are used to protect society - but 17 previous convictions -

Are we really all just sitting targets-

Judges should be made accountable for the sentences they pass - and subsequent consequences - f***ING shameful overpayed privileged a***wipes -

They should be incarcerated.

Anyone else agree?
