Most people imagine prison life for convicted murderers as being harsh, brutal, and isolated, a real-life "Shawshank Redemption."

So when convicted killer Danny Robbie Hembree Jr., 50, wrote a letter in January to the Gaston Gazette in North Carolina, gloating about his comfortable life on death row, it got plenty of attention.

"Is the public aware that I am a gentleman of leisure, watching color TV in the A.C., reading, taking naps at will, eating three, well-balanced, hot meals a day," Hembree wrote.

Critics say too often, at prisons across the country, convicted killers pass the time playing dominos and basketball, use well-stocked commissaries selling snacks and sodas, and enjoy state-of-the-art gyms, or time in the arts and crafts room.

Robert Blecker, a New York Law School professor and pro-death-penalty advocate, has spent the past 25 years documenting his provocative and controversial view, that life inside state penitentiaries and maximum-security prisons can actually be an undeservedly pleasant experience for convicted killers.

"They're playing on softball fields with lined base paths and umpires in uniforms, while other guys are hanging out, getting a suntan," Blecker said. "Those who committed the worst crimes, who deserve to suffer the most, generally suffer the least."

Blecker, who is producing a documentary and writing a book about the issue, said most Americans are clueless about the reality of prison life. He said prison life can be so comfortable that some convicts claim to have killed just to get put away, like Robert Pitts of Woodbury, Tenn., who was convicted of first-degree murder after beating a 63-year-old grandmother to death with a lead pipe.

"I can play pool or basketball," Pitts told Blecker, who interviewed him for his upcoming documentary. "Softball when it's softball season. Run, you can go out and jog, lift weights, play cards."

Well I have told you all that the revealing will happen and then all governors changed will begin the process of seating the councils. they will take these people to their rightful place..the 2th death. These evil people get to live on more then thirty thousand dollars a year or more
The disabled and elderly live on less then 15 thousand a year. They have paid into the system all their life's and now live below the poverty level. The time for the revealing is soon and then all these evil talking monkeys will get the big send off for good..All you who are living on SSI or SSA we will be your knew governors and make sure you are taken care of. We will not allow any of these animals to live. to. I know a lady who works for the prisons and she is so pissed at how they act and what they get to do inside the walls. they get all the best meds,eye glasses and  pampered and treated like they deserve the world. TVs.Drugs,sex, Ganges and every other thing that they shouldn't get. They are still evil inside and control a lot of people on the outside. They will be destroyed for their evils against people and children...To let these evil animals live like this and then to have the disabled and elderly live in poverty is going to be stopped..
I am the seventh Son of Enki...Shit is going to be hitting the fan very soon in the revealing
