Two centuries ago, Pennsylvania became the center of prison reform due to Quaker influences which abolished harsh punishments established by English rule. However, conservative factions reintroduced cruel penalties like public hangings. Philadelphia prisons in the late 1700s were overcrowded and unsanitary, housing both men and women together, and jailers profited by charging inmates inflated prices. A Quaker formed an organization to provide food to starving prisoners, but it disbanded with the British occupation. A new Walnut Street jail had little improvement, with inmates trading clothes and suffering in the cold. By the end of the 20th century, the U.S. had over two million incarcerated, far surpassing other nations.
The document provides a narrative on prisoners' rights law and policy from the perspective of a jailhouse lawyer. It begins with a brief procedural history of the author's 20 years of experience as a pro se litigant, beginning in 1976. It then contrasts the legal definitions and roles of a pro se litigant and jailhouse lawyer. While a pro se litigant represents themselves, a jailhouse lawyer provides legal assistance and advice to other inmates. The author analyzes key Supreme Court cases that established inmates' right to receive legal assistance from other inmates if prison officials do not provide adequate alternative assistance.
The document discusses the disproportionate impact of the criminal justice system on communities of color and calls for reform. Key points:
- People of color, especially Black and Hispanic men, are incarcerated at much higher rates than whites, despite similar rates of drug use and crime.
- Racial disparities exist at every level, from policing and sentencing to employment opportunities post-release.
- The growth of the for-profit prison industry creates perverse incentives to incarcerate more people, especially minorities, to guarantee profits.
- Meaningful reform is needed to dismantle systemic racism in the criminal justice system and address it as a civil rights issue. Some local initiatives show promise in reducing racial dispar
This document provides a comparative analysis of sentencing guidelines and structures between Russia and Alaska. It finds that while Alaska utilizes a grid system to determine sentences, Russia's system is more narrative based and discretionary. For specific crimes like murder, rape, and assault, Russia typically imposes shorter prison sentences than Alaska. The document also analyzes differences in how online enticement of a minor is punished, with some states reducing the penalty if the victim is older. Overall, the document finds differences in the philosophies and specific guidelines around criminal sentencing between the Russian and Alaskan legal systems.
This document summarizes research on implicit racial bias and its impact on the criminal justice system in the United States. It begins by noting the vast racial disparities that exist at every level of the criminal justice system, with black Americans disproportionately represented in incarceration rates compared to their population. It then discusses research showing that implicit or unconscious racial bias exists independently of individuals' conscious beliefs and can influence behaviors. The document argues that the Supreme Court has failed to acknowledge implicit bias, expanding discretion of criminal justice actors in ways that allow bias to affect decisions and rejecting disparate impact claims. It maintains the Court must recognize implicit bias and its effects to fulfill its duty under the Equal Protection Clause.
This document discusses the criminalization of barebacking (unprotected sex) between men and analyzes it through a queer theory lens. It argues that current laws around HIV transmission reflect a heteronormative view that constructs "good gays" who conform to mainstream norms, versus "bad queers" who engage in stigmatized sexual practices like barebacking. The document draws on queer theory to critique how the judiciary views itself as the moral arbiter of acceptable sexuality. It asserts that laws and court decisions surrounding barebacking fail to consider the lived experiences of queer communities and perpetuate a divide between respectable and transgressive forms of gay sexuality.
The document discusses the costs and benefits of the US prison system. It notes that it costs over $33,000 per year to incarcerate each inmate, and $500 million per year is spent on mental health medications for inmates. Inmates receive medical care, education programs, and preparation for release. However, around 2 out of 3 released prisoners are rearrested within 3 years. The high costs of prisons have diverted funding from schools and universities. Overcrowding in prisons also creates problems for inmates and staff. In conclusion, the prison system is very costly for taxpayers but does provide benefits to inmates.
The document summarizes the growth of West Virginia's prison population and its impacts. It finds that despite a stable crime rate, the prison population has grown significantly due to policies that emphasize incarceration over alternatives. This has resulted in overcrowding and a growing financial burden on the state. The report recommends reducing admissions by expanding treatment courts and alternatives to incarceration for technical violations, as well as reducing time served by reforming sentencing policies and increasing parole.
The document discusses changes over time related to laws and policies concerning same-sex marriage and LGBTQ rights in the United States. It provides background on biblical passages cited by conservatives regarding marriage and homosexuality. It also summarizes key laws and court cases such as the Defense of Marriage Act, Don't Ask Don't Tell policy, Supreme Court rulings legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, and debates around transgender bathroom access. The document takes a perspective opposing expanded LGBTQ rights and same-sex marriage.

The document discusses the basic skills required for inpatient psychiatry practice in Egypt. It covers topics such as the admission process, initial assessments, management plans, follow-up notes, psychopharmacology, and discharge planning. It emphasizes skills like differential diagnosis, initial medical evaluations, ordering appropriate tests and monitoring vital signs, following guidelines for safe medication administration, and arranging outpatient follow-up care prior to discharge. The document is intended as a guide for resident psychiatrists on providing care within Egypt's mental health facilities.
This document discusses psychiatry departments and services including de-addiction and lifestyle modification centers. It describes that psychiatry involves the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders by physicians called psychiatrists. De-addiction centers and lifestyle modification centers aim to treat addiction and promote healthy behaviors through a team-based approach. The document also outlines the services, staffing, and basic requirements for establishing a psychiatry hospital or wing.
This document discusses ethical issues in psychiatry. It covers topics like informed consent, involuntary vs voluntary treatment, psychiatric diagnosis, and confidentiality. The goals of psychiatric ethics are to provide competent and respectful care while respecting patient autonomy and human rights. Sources of ethics include law, religion, and professional guidelines. Assessing patient competence and ensuring freedom of choice are important aspects of informed consent in psychiatry.

The document provides an overview of community psychiatry, including definitions, services, and developments in various countries. It focuses on the development of community psychiatry in India. Key points include:
- Community psychiatry aims to provide mental healthcare in community settings rather than institutions.
- It originated in the US and Italy in the mid-20th century with deinstitutionalization and a shift toward community-based care.
- In India, community psychiatry developed through initiatives like the National Mental Health Programme in 1982, which integrated mental healthcare into primary care.
- Notable experiments included training general physicians in Ranchi and community programs run by NGOs. The Indian Mental Healthcare Act of 1987 also supported
The United States has the highest prison population in the world, incarcerating over 2 million people despite having less than 5% of the world's total population. The US incarceration rate dwarfs other major industrialized nations, imprisoning 751 people per 100,000 citizens compared to rates of 151 in England and 88 in Germany. Criminologists attribute the high incarceration rate to several factors, including harsher sentencing laws, the war on drugs, and a lack of social safety net programs.
The document provides an overview of prison systems around the world through descriptions, statistics, and images. It begins with a brief history of the first American prison established in 1790 in Philadelphia and contrasts the inhumane treatment of prisoners at that time with more rehabilitative approaches taken in Scandinavian countries today. Subsequent sections cover specific aspects of prisons in the United States, Mexico, and Nordic countries like Norway. Images and videos illustrate the varying conditions inmates face. The second floor map outlines galleries on topics like the experiences of Mexican women in prisons and the impacts of solitary confinement and lack of mental healthcare.
This document provides an overview of the history and evolution of the US penal system. It discusses the different eras and philosophies that have guided the system over time, from the original penitentiary era focused on rehabilitation to the current era emphasizing punishment and incapacitation. Key points covered include the influence of liberal vs. conservative ideologies, the growth of private prisons, differing approaches to incarceration and prisoner treatment, and how the system has attempted to balance punishment, rehabilitation and public safety. The document traces the penal system from its origins to the billion dollar industry it is today.
This document discusses the issue of prison overcrowding in the United States. It proposes amending laws to allow alternative rehabilitation programs for non-violent drug offenders instead of incarceration. This aims to address overcrowding by reducing prison populations. Overcrowding creates unsafe and unsanitary conditions for inmates and staff. Possible solutions mentioned include increasing funding, reforming sentencing guidelines, and programs to reduce recidivism.

This document discusses and compares American jails and prisons. Jails are run by local governments and hold those awaiting trial or serving sentences less than one year. Prisons are run by state or federal governments and incarcerate those convicted of felonies serving over one year. In recent decades, privatized prisons owned by corporations have emerged, though there is debate around their impact and incentives. The document also describes a specific county's plans to replace an overcrowded jail with a new larger facility.
The document discusses three main arguments about criminal law and justice:
1) Criminal sentencing laws like California's Three Strikes law have disproportionately impacted minority communities and have fallen short of their intended goals. These laws often result in extreme sentences that outweigh their effectiveness in reducing crime.
2) Social science research on issues like cross-racial eyewitness identification has helped inform criminal procedure and shed light on how race influences criminal trials.
3) Existing criminal procedure has created burdens for criminal defendants. Aggregation of discretionary decisions in the criminal justice system can lead to racial unfairness if not addressed. More analysis is needed on how race impacts criminal punishment and jurisprudence.
This document summarizes information about the US federal prison system and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. It outlines the growth of prisoner populations in both systems from the 1980s onward due to tougher sentencing laws. It also describes the different security levels in federal prisons and some of the key events and reforms in the history of the Texas prison system. Finally, it summarizes some of the legal rights that inmates have under Texas law.

1. The report examines the privatization of the American prison system and its impact on the criminal justice system.
2. Private prisons now make up around 2% of the total prison population in the US and generate billions in annual revenue for the two largest private prison companies.
3. While private prisons may save state and local governments around 50% in expenses, they also create incentives to cut costs and have been shown to have higher rates of violence and staff turnover due to lower pay.

CRITICAL ISSUES TO CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE U.S. 2
There are many contemporary issues that are found within the American penal system.
Perhaps we are not fully aware of these issues and just how much they affect the American penal
system. Though we are aware that there are issues, we may not be completely aware of just how
much they affect the everyday functioning of the correctional systems. We are not fully aware of
the funding problems, or the overcrowding problems, or just how much violence takes place in
prisons. These three issues seem to be the worst of all the issues that these facilities face.
Funding
Correctional facilities, just like any other business, do not operate for free. Total state
expenditures on prisons and related activities were about $9.6 billion in the mid-1980’s, where
about 40 percent of all state prison construction was financed by a pay-as-you-go method, and 50
percent was paid by general obligation bonds, and the remaining 10 percent was financed using
lease revenue bonds and other revenue streams. By 1996, total state expenditures for prisons
were estimated to be $22 billion, and more than half of all the debt issued to finance prisons was
carried out through a specific variant of lease-revenue bonds which were called certificates of
participation (Public Bonds, 2004). According to the staff at Vera’s Center on Sentencing and
Corrections and Cost-Benefit Analysis Unit, after surveying 40 states in an effort to calculate the
taxpayer’s cost of prisons, the cost of prisons was $39 billion in 2010, which was $5.4 billion
more than what their corrections budgets reflected (VERA Institute of Justice, 2013). Over the
past 40 years, the U.S. has seen a dramatic increase in prison population, and as a result, the
country’s state prison population has grown by more than 700 percent since the 1970’s. This has
come at great cost to taxpayers (VERA Institute of Justice, 2013). At the end of 2012, the United
States prison population was 1,571,013, which is actually a decline for the third straight

consecutive year. More plans are under way in an effort to lower the number of people who are
incarcerated in the U.S., which will help lower the cost of running these facilities as well.
America exceeds every other country in prison inmate population. Attorney General Eric Holder
announced sweeping plans that will be designed to address the issue through drug sentencing
reform and this means that low level drug offenders could be subjected to some type of treatment
or community service programs rather than prison time. There are also plans of implementing
and expanding prison programs that would a.
Prison overcrowding has become a major issue across the United States, especially in California, New York, and Texas. Tougher crime policies in the 1980s and 1990s, such as California's three-strikes law and New York's broken windows policy, resulted in higher incarceration rates and overwhelmed prison systems. While these policies aimed to reduce crime, skeptics argue they only contributed somewhat and economic prosperity in the 1990s likely reduced crime more. Overcrowding also stems from the privatization of prisons, as private companies lobby for policies that keep prison populations high to boost profits. Overall, decades of tough-on-crime policies have strained prison budgets and left systems in need of reform.

1. Two centuries ago, Philadelphia and Pennsylvania became the center of prison reform
worldwide. To understand how this happened, one must look briefly at the early development of
penal practices in William Penn’s colony. Penn, who himself had been confined in England for
his Quaker beliefs, abolished the Duke of York’s severe criminal code which was in effect in
other parts of British North America, where, among other offenses, the penalty of death was
applied for murder, denying "the true God," homosexual acts and kidnapping. Severe physical
punishments were used for what were considered lesser crimes. Pennsylvania’s Quaker-inspired
code abolished the death penalty for all crimes except murder, using instead imprisonment with
labor and fines. The law did call for severe penalties for sexual offenses: "defiling the marriage
bed" was to be punished by whipping plus a one year sentence for the first offense, life
imprisonment for the second.
Upon Penn’s death, conservative factions in the American colony and in England reintroduced
many of the more sanguinary punishments. As late as 1780, punishments such as the pillory and
hanging were carried out in public. An account of an execution that year related how two
prisoners "were taken out amidst a crowd of spectators – they walked after a cart in which were
two coffins and a ladder, etc., each had a rope about his neck and their arms tied behind them…
they were both hanged in the commons of this city.
Jails up until the time of the American Revolution were used largely for persons awaiting trial
and other punishments and for debtors and sometimes witnesses. In the Old
Stone Jail at Third and Market Streets in Philadelphia, old and young, black and white, men and
women were all crowded together. Here, as in other county jails in Pennsylvania at the time, it
2. was a common custom for the jailer or sheriff to provide a bar, charging inflated prices to the
prisoners for spirits. In Chester County, the English custom of charging for various other services
was also in force, e.g. fees for locking and unlocking cells, food, heat, clothing, and for attaching
and removing irons incident to a court appearance.
In 1776, Richard Wistar, Sr., a Quaker, had soup prepared in his home to be distributed to the
inmates in Philadelphia prisons, many of whom were suffering from starvation at the time and
even several deaths. Wistar formed the Philadelphia Society for Assisting Distressed Prisoners,
but with the British occupation of the city the next year, the organization was disbanded.
Because of the rapidly growing population, a new jail was begun in 1773 on Walnut Street,
behind the State House (later, Independence Hall). The new prison had the traditional layout of
large rooms for the inmates. Initially, conditions were little better than they had been at the old
jail. Prisoners awaiting trial might barter their clothes for liquor or be forcibly stripped upon
entering by other inmates seeking funds for the bar. The result was great suffering when the
weather turned cold. One estimate stated that 20 gallons of spirits were brought into the prison
daily by the jailer for sale to the inmates. It was also considered a common practice for certain
women to arrange to get arrested to gain access to the male prisoners.
3. The United States has the highest documented incarceration rate in the world. The U.S.
incarceration rate on December 31, 2008 was 754 inmates per 100,000 U.S. residents, or
0.75%.The USA also has the highest total documented prison and jail population in the world.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS): "In 2008, over 7.3 million people were
on probation, in jail or prison, or on parole at year-end — 3.2% of all U.S. adult residents or 1 in
every 31 adults."
2,304,115 were incarcerated in U.S. prisons and jails in 2008. In addition, according to a
December 2009 BJS report, there were 92,854 held in juvenile facilities as of the 2006 Census of
Juveniles in Residential Placement (CJRP), conducted by the Office of Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention.
The federal government, states, counties, and many individual cities have facilities to confine
people. Generally, "prison" refers to facilities for holding convicted felons (offenders who
commit crimes where the sentence is at least one year). Individuals awaiting trial, being held
pending citations for non-custodial offenses, and those convicted of misdemeanors (crimes
which carry a sentence of less than one year), are generally held in county jails.
In most states, cities operate small jail facilities, sometimes simply referred to as "lock-ups",
used only for very short-term incarceration—can be held for up to 72 business hours or up to five
days—until the prisoner comes before a judge for the first time or receives a citation or summons
before being released or transferred to a larger jail. Some states have "unified" systems, in which
all the jails and prisons are operated by the state. The federal government also operates various
4. "detention centers" in major urban areas or near federal courthouses to hold criminal defendants
appearing in federal court.
Many of the smaller county and city jails do not classify prisoners (that is, there is no separation
by offense type and other factors). While some of these small facilities operate as "close
security" facilities, to prevent prisoner-on-prisoner violence and increase overall security, others
may put many prisoners into the same cells without regard to their individual criminal histories.
Other local jails are large and have many different security levels. For example, one of the
largest jails in the United States is Cook County Jail in Cook County (located in Chicago). This
facility has eleven different divisions, including one medical unit and two units for women
prisoners, with each of the eleven divisions operating at a different security level, ranging from
dormitory-style open housing to super-secure lock-down.
In the state of California, to prevent violence, prisoners are segregated by race, ethnicity, and
sexual orientation while held in county jails and in the California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation's reception centers, where newly committed prisoners are assessed prior to being
transferred to their "mainline", long-term institutions.
In recent years, there has been much debate over the privatization of prisons. The argument for
privatization stresses cost reduction, whereas the arguments against it focus on standards of care,
and the question of whether a market economy for prisons might not also lead to a market
demand for prisoners (tougher sentencing for cheap labor). While privatized prisons have only a
5. short history, there is a long tradition of inmates in state and federal-run prisons undertaking
active employment in prison for low pay.
Some advantages of private prisons have been cited. These include flexibility, including the
ability to terminate a contract more easily and cost-effectively than it would be to close down a
government prison and lay off civil servants in the event of a decline in prison population.
Private prisons also have an incentive to look for ways to save on costs; for instance, Travis
Snelling of the Corrections Corporation of America notes that his prisons are designed to save on
labor, which represents 70% of the total costs over the useful life of a prison. This is particularly
important given that posts must often be manned 24 hours a day, requiring more than five
employees to cover all the shifts. Snelling estimates: "If you can eliminate one post by your
architectural design, just one, that'll save you well over $100,000 in a given marketplace, as far
as labor is concerned."
The three leading corporations in the private prison business in the U.S. are the Corrections
Corporation of America, the GEO Group, and Cornell Companies.
Private companies which provide services to prisons combine in the American Correctional
Association, which advocates legislation favorable to the industry. Such private companies
comprise what has been termed the Prison-industrial complex.
American prisons and jails held 2,304,115 inmates in 2008. Approximately one in every 18 men
in the United States is behind bars or being monitored. A significantly greater percentage of the
American population is in some form of correctional control even though crime rates have
6. declined by about 25 percent from 1988-2008. 70% of prisoners in the United States are non-
whites.[12]
In recent decades the U.S. has experienced a surge in its prison population,
quadrupling since 1980, partially as a result of mandated sentences that came about during the
"war on drugs." Violent crime and property crime have declined since the early 1990s.
As of 2004, the three states with the lowest ratio of imprisoned to civilian population are Maine
(148 per 100,000), Minnesota (171 per 100,000), and Rhode Island (175 per 100,000). The three
states with the highest ratio are Louisiana (816 per 100,000), Texas (694 per 100,000), and
Mississippi (669 per 100,000).
Nearly one million of those incarcerated in state and federal prisons, as well as local jails, are
serving time for committing non-violent crimes.
In 2002, 93.2% of prisoners were male. About 10.4% of all black males in the United States
between the ages of 25 and 29 were sentenced and in prison, compared to 2.4% of Hispanic
males and 1.3% of white males
In 2005, about 1 out of every 136 U.S. residents was incarcerated either in prison or jail. The
total amount being 2,320,359, with 1,446,269 in state and federal prisons and 747,529 in local
jails
A 2005 report estimated that 27% of federal prison inmates are noncitizens, convicted of crimes
while in the country legally or illegally.[19]
However, federal prison inmates are only six percent
of the total incarcerated population; noncitizen populations in state and local prisons are more
difficult to establish. The World Prison Brief puts the total number of foreign prisoners in all
federal, state and local facilities at 5.9%
7. By the end of the twentieth century, the United States had nearly two million people confined in
its prisons or jails, representing ten or twenty times more of its population behind bars than that
of most other postindustrial nations. Although these numbers increased more than fourfold in the
last thirty years, imprisonment in various forms has played an important role in the American
experience for more than five hundred years, helping to determine its history and shaping the
society. This history helps to explain the paradox of a country that prides itself on being the
citadel of individual liberty yet imprisons more of its citizens per capita than any other nation in
the world. It also provides a warning about the future, for even as the United States epitomizes
and sanctifies democracy, it continues to build a huge and growing complex of durable
totalitarian institutions. This massive use of imprisonment has made American society highly
dependent on prisons both economically and politically as well as socially.
