The ACLU’s Remedy for Wuhan-Virus – Empty the Prisons!
No. Really. I’m not kidding. What about the public’s safety? Well, you are deluding yourself if you think the ACLU cares about the public’s safety. And you are hopelessly naive if you think that the ACLU is being ingenuous. The ACLU wants to do away with prisons. They see Wuhan-Virus as a tool in that … Read more
Report from India: Coronavirus May Have Started in Chinese Prison Camps
The latest bit of bad news before this one is from South Korea where there are now over 600 confirmed cases. The CDC says the US has 14 confirmed cases but a different source puts the number at 35. China reports 79,000 cases but that number is suspect. So, what’s the deal with this report form India?
Democrats and their love affair with prisons….
The Union Leader ran an article today about two felons who have apparently been doing random violent home invasions where the occupants are always beaten and sometimes raped and/or killed. So what is a Democrat’s solution in the comment section after the article? “This is what happens when your state government underfunds prisons….” Sheesh. I responded as follows:
Prison Reform. Do We Need Some?
I’ll admit it. I have no idea what goes on in State Prisons, county jails, or local lock ups. And I plan to keep it that way. But two weeks ago I met the Sheriff of Bristol County Massachusetts and I was inspired. Sheriff Thomas Hodgson has a few idea that remind me of my visit with Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County Arizona (here and here); a willingness to make incarceration just that. More like punishment, less like a gated country club.
Upon assuming the role of High Sheriff of Bristol County, Sheriff Hodgson immediately set out to implement his goals for corrections reform, public safety and raising the standards for the Bristol County Sheriff’s Office. He instituted structured disciplines for the inmate population and expanded the work release programs.
Approximately three years ago Sheriff Hodgson gained international attention when he instituted the Tandem Work Crew, a strictly voluntary program for medium security inmates. While initially controversial, the Tandem Work Crews continue to work in communities throughout the County. He banned tobacco products for staff and inmates, removed televisions from cells, and donated weight-lifting equipment to police departments and the local Boys and Girls Club. In July of 2002, in an attempt to offset severe budget cuts, Sheriff Hodgson instituted a $5.00 cost-of-care fee that every inmate is charged for each day they are incarcerated. Programs affording educational opportunities, spiritual assistance and vocational aptitude have expanded at the House of Correction.
Prisoners should not have cable television, weights, or any creature comforts at all.
