Don't want to work all day in the hot sun? Don't commit a crime.

When prisoners are forced to work on the Farm Line, they are rarely given breaks or drinking water

So trusting of the government. They never get anything wrong.

Just googling Angola prison deaths brought up this article which claims more than 500 people died in LA prisons between 2018-2022.
Egregious’: Louisiana prisons have experienced 50% spike in deaths, report says
This article is about the overall inadequate healthcare, not specific to only heat related deaths.

You think the criminals at Angola were wrongfully convicted? Bless your heart.

Some of them? Absolutely. Especially people convicted by non-unanimous juries.

They get paid .06 per hour. Used t be 4. Gave them a cost of living adjustment a few years ago. More than most of those POS deserve.

88 degrees? I remember working in hot fields back when I was in high school. 88 degrees was just an average day.

Calling bullhit on this. It’s 2024 not 1950.
The water claim made me go from somewhat sympathetic to dismissing the whole thing. I don't blame them for not wanting to be out in a field from 12 to 4 though.
