[QUOTE="DDD, post: 485055, member: 35"] I watch them fairly regularly and it boggles my mind. There are so many problems with the system and evidently very few locales where there is any effort made to help the detainees become likely to have success in the real world. Pot smokers are lumped together with repeat violent offenders. I have actually seen those charged with attempted manslaughter get released before youthful offenders got out. I may be wrong but I think Florida has the largest & of citizens incarcerated. Many are convicted of the lowest level Felony charges (often possession of small quantities of dope for personal use). Sigh. Then...those people have to write Felon on job applications which leads to higher unemployment #'s. Double sigh. On a more positive note the correctional officers that are shown seem to be quite professional. DDD [/QUOTE]
