For some classes of offenders, high-, maximum- or even "super-max" security is absolutely necessary, in order to protect the public.

Why wouldn't someone who raped kids be considered a high risk class? Why would you automatically put them in a low risk class?

The data that I have seen says that they are NOT problematic prisoners. They tend to be loners. They do not start fights with other prisoners. They obey the guards. They do not attempt escape. In short, the types of prisoners who can be easily-controlled at a lower cost to the State in low- and medium-security facilities.

Interesting question: If they are sentenced to "life without parole," will they CONTINUE to have low incidence of attempted escape? No way to know in advance.
