Louis Theroux (of San Quentin, Black Nationalists, Most Hated Family docu fame) goes to a Miami jail. No video (yet, as far as I know), but there's an article up on BBC. It's very... interesting :smith:

All prisons are pretty hosed up, as I understand (not having been in one, thankfully). Even the luxury open-air stuff you see in Scandinavia isn't the standard prison that everyone gets in, IIRC, though they generally do look a bit better.


Just saw a headline about a proposal to guard a prison with crocodiles and immediately thought it'd be Florida (alligators, whatever). Turns out it's in Indonesia, but still sticking prisoners on an island surrounded by these guys would be probably preferable to the current situation.
