I say they messed the prison up...let them live in the mess they created.

I agree! Prisoners are so pampered now it's ridiculous! They act like they are entitled to live in 5 star hotel conditions! Geeze!

the real question is, why are prisons so understaffed to allow such a thing to happen?

And why are they so overcrowded with people who are in need of mental health treatment and drug rehab as well.

yes. prisons aren't run by guards, they're run by thugs and gang members. it could be so much worse, remember the recent prison riot in brazil? my gosh, the conditions there are deplorable and they house petty criminals along with murders and rapists.

The prison system is a national disgrace. As long as it continues to profit investors, it won't change in any dramatic way.

It appears that most of the prisoners are illegals....why aren't they just sent back home?

Oh wait - then the people who run the for profit prisons wouldn't be making a profit!

so it is a privatized prison? Ai yi.

tansy, I don't know about the ownership of this particular prison, have yet to read the article. My statement was just my opinion on the entire prison system, so many of them are private and intended to pay off dividends but either way, it's a mess of inadequate, underfunded and overly crowded.
