"Can you give me a sense [of] the magnitude of this practice and use in America? No other nation in the world, as far as I'm aware, uses it to the extent it is used here. I think the United States leads the world not only in the rate at which we incarcerate our citizens but the rate at which we put those incarcerated citi- zens in long-term solitary confinement. The best estimates we have suggest that about 80,000 people or more are currently being held in solitary or soli- tary-type conditions. That's unheard of in any other nation, and frankly, in my opinion, it was unheard of in the United States until about 30 or so years ago, when we began to increas- ingly put people in long-term solitary confinement. |||"
