1. Our prisons should be re-hab facilities, not con colleges. 2. There should be a separate facility, with very straict controls, for those who remain violent in prison. 3. Staffing needs fixed, Pay is terrible, so the guards are usually grossly unqualified and subject to corruption.

Forbes: it would be nice to be able to read the nameplate of the person who is speaking. You could put up your chyron intermittently to remind viewers of the great favor you are doing for them — but please let us see the names of the speakers.

I took have been to prison, A woman who been serving years already, came up pregnant.They fired him, but I got out to know what happened to her?

I'm sorry to hear of your abuse, I've seen it all to many times.. my unjust trips to prison, and a trip to Cleveland preRelease, had to fire a officer, woman officer, in a woman's preRelease.happened there too.
As well as ...White shirts asking me
If the lead kitchen staff should be fired over what she had done to me,
Of course Not, If I had seeked revenge
...then I would be no better then her as a spirit, tit for that...don'take it ok.She was an angry spirit, I pitted her.and was sooo thankful, I had not lived whatever she had lived through.
Months later I was lucky enough to walk out that door, as I signed my paperwork, I ask the white shirt why
Things ran here where sooo messed up, he apologized to me, and said..we just don't have the money.but much better then. Marysville, I tell you that, but I had never been More high
Iny life as North East pre release.

The men try to get on women's prison especially if they have abused children because they are worried about being murdered in men's prison.

I just had a conversation with someone about that topic whom works at a prison. #techmanifests innapropriate behaviors . Read the training hand book and definitely don't let those hacked phones in with employees. It's bad enough investments are needed to remove tech devices in outdoor locations bureau of land management. Also, employees aren't supposed to be using work devices for private use.

[ElizabethHurtado-pyur]

Thank you for addressing this horrific topic.
