They say if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. But a lot of people do it anyway. You may know of some people who have gone in and out of prison at least a few times in their lifetime, but the fact that they were not frightened enough to commit a new crime and get locked up again means that they were lucky enough not to have been incarcerated in some of the worst and most dangerous prisons in the world, where the chances of getting beat up or tortured, raped, or killed is much, much higher than the average slammer. Overcrowding and having living conditions so horrible that it’s considered inhumane can be the least of your problems in these hellholes where even the most hardened and vicious criminals can go insane.
