VendaGoat posted:Until such time as the DOJ says "Private prisons will be outlawed" these companies will survive. yeah the federal system doesn't even use that many ACTUAL private prisons. the one i was in was the only one on the entire west coast. now what they do use a lot of are private "transfer centers" which are like quasi-prisons that you stay at after you've been sentenced but are awaiting transport to wherever you are going and private halfway houses. plus the states are the main contractors with private prisons anyway

the only thing that sucks for the inmates is that private prisons have far, far, far superior commissaries than regular prisons tho

my two best friends in prison were both doing 10 years for weed. in each of their cases the feds never even recovered a single physical gram of marijuana, much less the hundreds and hundreds of pounds they charged them with. think about that for a second.

they were both importing weed by the hundreds of pounds from british columbia to the US. one distributed it in the Seattle area the other moved it cross country to brooklyn. neither of them were busted with any physical marijuana they were both snitched on and plead guilty to conspiracy. i dont think you guys understand how unbelievably draconian federal drug laws are. i received 2 37 month sentences served concurrently for possession of about 50 grams of heroin.
