If Perry would just let all the nonviolent drug offenders go then Texas would save a shitload of money

That's about all that's left about prison that actually serves as a deterrent.

The broken prison system in this country is just as bad as the war on drugs.

That's such a Middle Ages mentality. Yeah if you're convicted of a crime you should be sentenced to rape

Do you also believe in cutting off someone's hand for stealing?

no you're sentenced to prison with the possibility of anal rape. Enough of a deterrent for me

Not for stealing, but I'm all for castration for child rapists (REAL child rapists, not 18 years olds who sleep with their 16 year old girlfriends).

President George W. Bush signed PREA in 2003, a landmark law that established a National Prison Rape Reduction Commission to conduct studies and put forth rules to eliminate prison rape. The commission’s rules, finalized in 2012, require prisons separate adult and juvenile inmates, stop cross-gender pat-downs of juveniles and restrict staff from viewing inmates of the opposite sex shower, change clothes or use the restroom.
Governor Perry claimed the cross-gender viewing provision would be impossible to implement, since women make up forty percent of Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDJC) correctional officers at all-male units. Perry also invoked states rights in objecting to a provision forcing prisons to stop treating seventeen-year-olds as adults, saying it would cost Texas too much.


Implementation won't cost as much as the legal defense will.

Short sighted and dumb. Pick your battles governor good hair.

its also dangerous mentality. we are saying - rape is ok in some circumstances.

Lots of frickwads, especially people who end up in prison have low ability to differentiate situations. Oh, well I got raped in prison and it was cool, its cool if I rape your daughter. Rape is either wrong or its not. If its wrong, we should try to eliminate where feasible.

shame on rick perry.

So you trust the government to castrate people but not to manage a food stamp program?

How often does this happen today? There's not really much of any prison (including the cells, showers) that aren't covered by camera.

No problem at all, it is prison after all, most people would assume bad things could happen and live their lives in a manner that would eliminate the possibility of going there.

Prison rape numbers are and always have been astoundingly high.

This could be your "one issue" DA.
You could be the resident board "prison rape" guy.
Either that or you could just stick with being the mandatory "daily beatdown" guy.

I'm kidding you man.

A United States Department of Justice report, Sexual Victimization in Prisons and Jails Reported by Inmates, states that "In 2011-12, an estimated 4.0% of state and federal prison inmates and 3.2% of jail inmates reported experiencing one or more incidents of sexual victimization by another inmate or facility staff in the past 12 months or since admission to the facility, if less than 12 months." [2] However, advocates dispute the accuracy of the numbers, saying they seem to under report the real numbers of sexual assaults in prison, especially among juveniles.[3]

that seems relatively common to me.
