Anonymous Coward User ID: 74188993 Thailand 02/23/2017 11:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not surprising. Sessions has repeatedly expressed support for private prisons over the past 20 years. As attorney general of Alabama, Sessions greenlighted the use of private prisons in his own state. In early 1996, Sessions wrote an advisory opinion stating that state law allowed Alabama to contract with private companies to manage state prisons, according to the Birmingham News. (The privatization push was led by State Prison Commissioner Ron Jones, who was forced to resign a few months later for trying to turn the female prison population into a shackled chain gang.) In 2006, Sessions helped a private prison in Perry County, Alabama, secure a lucrative federal contract to house undocumented immigrants awaiting court proceedings or deportation, according to the Birmingham News. The prison had been empty because state lawmakers had balked at the cost of housing inmates at the private facility. In the US Senate, Sessions has expressed support for private prisons. At a Senate Judiciary Hearing in 2010, Sessions expressed his backing of the for-profit prison industry during a confirmation hearing for a nominee to lead the US Marshals Service. "I did want to say that I do think there is a role for private prisons in the American system," Sessions told the nominee, Stacia Hylton, whose ties to the private prison industry had received scrutiny from Democrats. "I do not think you would have a blanket refusal to consider that and if anybody is critical of you for that, I do not think that would be justified." This fall, in the wake of the Justice Department's decision to move away from private prison contracting, the GEO Group hired several lobbyists, including two former aides to Sessions. Alabama attorneys David Stewart and Ryan Robichaux were hired to lobby on federal government use of contract correctional facilities. They know exactly who to turn to now that their former boss becomes attorney general. |

Private for-profit prisons are only used to house low-risk inmates, such as drug users and illegal aliens. Now connect the dots. |

As long as the criminals are off the streets, it's not essential to deal with that system OK I see. So that is the politically correct excuse for this? I've been seeing a whole lot of those excuses posted lately. "There's more important things to deal with right now" LOL fucking clown show is all this is. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 48824458 United States 02/24/2017 01:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's not just as long as they are guilty. Profiteering off people in prison is wrong. Harsher sentences for cash. Filling quotas. Trumping up charges to keep people who are already in longer. No programs to better non violent offenders so they can not try to better themselves so after they are released they have higher odds of returning. ..common guys |
