If they're big to manage the system this way with no plans to change it then don't call it the Department of Corrections. They're not correcting anything.

I really like this. Please do it again.

I think it is great to hear about the conditions in these prisons directly from the people who are experiencing them.

Thanks

Thanks for doing this. It's so important for people to hear both your excellent reportage and first hand accounts of what's going on inside. Thank you.

I being a inmate and serving a life sentence and 30+ years built in it can testify to everything this person said. This system only creates monsters . Every day I have to be constantly aware of everyone. I constantly analyze the people here to determine whether or not they are in an agitated state of dispare and stay in guard to defend myself. People are violent because of the current conditions. GOD HAVE MERCY ON US.
