They shouldnt have any rights in prison, i dont care if they get rec or not. Really i dont care if they get much of anything, they deserve 100 times worse then what they are getting now. They should have to work to pay for them being held and if not they should have to pay. My money shouldnt have to pay for someone else committing crime.
