An odd rule that some U.S. prisons have is banning tabletop roleplaying games like dungeons and dragons, because they didn't want inmates using the maps and adventures to plan an escape.
Not the boardgames! I was locked up in county in an 6 man block as the only white guy with only Spanish speaking inmates who kept the Spanish channel on the T.V. 24/7 all we had was Monopoly to interact with each. With no books that time was hard enough, couldn't imagine it without the Monopoly

I work in a county jail. Primarily pre-trial. We still have board/card games to a degree. But our rec room is just a big room with a couple big windows. No workout equipment, no sports stuff. Just a big room.
I was in county jail when tobacco was banned in a smaller Texas town. . One day it was allowed. The next day it was not. They stated to limit how much tobacco you could buy so by the cutoff, there was very little left. People still had rolling papers and they started rolling up pepper and fruit peels just to have something to smoke. Once all the matches were gone though it was over.
That had to be one of the worst times to end up in jail. By the time I ended up in jail, cigarettes had been banned in the jails/prisons for just over a year. People still had tobacco, and papers and a lot of them managed to light their cigarettes without access to matches or lighters. If you're determined enough, there's a way.
US prison seems downright cruel honestly and reform is desperately needed. Inmates are still human being and deserve to be treated as such, they should be rehabilitated and helped so that they can actually function when they get released, instead of just going back, since the rates of recidivism are so high.
@@humanoidshrek5524 yeah it was pretty early in his term. Didn't even wait for Arpaio's case to run it's course just gave him a get out of jail free card.
In HMP Newhall UK, the prisoners can work in a call centre and also a well known photo developing shop (called Max Spielman) and both offer the inmates of an opportunity for a job once released. That's decent rehabilitation
Jails still take your cash to pay for meals of you had any at all on your person. When you leave they send you off with a bill that states how much you ate everyday and what the total cost is. That said if you don't eat the guards will berate you you are required to take the meal. All that send when you leave and the meal paperwork is there don't sign it or don't ever pay it. It's entirely unlawful to make people pay for the basic meal while incarcerated. And they love taking your cash because it can't at all be tracked or traced. If they attempted to come after you for a bill it would be considered a debtors jail which we stopped doing for a reason
No they dont, any money you have on you either goes in your property bag to be picked up/given back to you upon release or it goes on your books/inmate account
As a spitey, eye for an eye, individual, I'm fairly certain that if I were forced into some of these conditions, when I was out I'd be QUITE the menace to society.. it's not hard to understand how once you've been in jail ONE time, you can easily end up back there again. Prison shouldn't be a resort experience OR one that makes you a worse human than before you entered.
@@icegamer8973 🙄 not that simple, #1 there are a lot of people who are actually innocent sitting in our prisons.

The majority of ppl in this country are locked up for non-violent drug offenses & many of those are ppl who are busted with small amounts for personal recreational use &/or addicts not big time drug dealers. Some are addicts that get busted selling small amounts to support their own habit & arent out robbing/stealing to get it. A retired FBI agent even wrote a book saying that the average person will commit at least 3 felonies a day without even realizing it
I think any prison that is low security should be more like a rehabilitation center. Since it’s mostly dui offenders and addicts they should work on their mental health and help them get their lives together rather then make it harder. Save all that actual prison stuff for people that have actually harmed other people,

Man I personally did time in Arizona Sheriff’s Joe Jail tent city. The food is worse than Alpo can dog food, he made us wear pink underwear had pink towels, and pink stripes. Everything to take away your masculinity. Also they only feed you twice a day saying you only need 2000 calories to survive. Then they charge you $5 a day to be in jail so if you don’t have money on your commissary your gonna be in the hole when you do get money smh 🤦🏿♂️. Also the tents he had people sent to were like a real concentration camp. We were outside in 1950 old style military tents that hold 44 men in each tent and we were in 100 degree weather all year it’s in Phoenix Arizona and it’s definitely inhumane

How the Arizona prison didn’t get sued for Egregiously Disobeying the eighth amendment is beyond me and yes it Applies to Those who are convicted as well
The prison system was sued. The case was throne out because, while the Supreme Court has said the police have a duty to protect prisoners, there is no way for prisoners to sue for their lack of protection while in prison. There is a reason why it was considered shocking that the Court ruled you can't keep prisoners in a cell "covered floor to ceiling with an inch of excrement." It's because the Court usually doesn't pay attention to the "cruel and unusual punishment" clause of the Constitution.
It's jail, I agree with you but it's jail or prison, meaning something bad happened for you to be there, if you could figure out a way for everything to be better without costing tax payers money. Good luck, the less innocent get stuck with some of the worst
I was a resident at Sheriff Joe's tent city once upon a time. Thats was the worst place I ever was! You are starved and forced to work 12 hours a day. Terrible
In the “hole” in some prisons, you have to wear an orange jumpsuit. Federal prison especially. The jumpsuits get washed with white tighty-whiteys and T-shirt’s…the color bleeds and turns the underwear and shirts eventually turn pinkish. I understand that some punk county jails make inmates wear pink underwear but in the BOP, it’s pretty much accidentally.

I was in tent city back in Phoenix about 26 years ago, it was only pink boxers. The towers had pink everything, but it wasn't embarrassing, it was the uniform and EVERYONE was wearing it. He also didn't give any of us basic needs (tooth brushes, paste, cups, water) we had to drink out of a hose and anything from the commissary, which was vending machines, was owned by his family so they turned a profit. At one point they were able to pull anyone over who "looked illegal" for no reason, happened to me twice and I had to prove I was a U.S. citizen.
Chess and checker peices are used to make tatoo ink. Make a tube from paper. Put a peice of paper on top. Light the chess peice on fire. Put the paper over it. Scrape the the soot off of the paper.

I have been in 5 different county jails and 2 prisons in Wisconsin and no tobocco is allowed anywhere and most jails the food is worse than any school. NO jail out here will give you nicotine patches or anything. If you don't have money on your books you're not gonna have any of the FEW luxuries you CAN have like ramen noodles or some freeze dried coffee (except 1 of the 5 jails banned caffeine)
That sheriff needs to be put in jail What he was doing is cool and unusual You don't put people in jail to take advantage of them they are there to pay a debt to society Not for you to use them as you please He needs to do time in our jail the same way he made these people do it We'll see what he thinks of his policies then
Sheriff JOE had the right idea - make jail so unpleasant that you wouldnt want to come back. Of course the trend of coddling criminals won out and now American cities are running rampant with crime and violence and most of them are turned loose without serving any time.
lol using pink underwear because you think that will stop prison theft.... inmates use ramon noodles and coffee packets as currency. laundry is even more valuable. i cant tell you how many times an inmate has begged me for someones excess laundry when i pack their property after they are sent to confinement

Phx tent city is notorious for making or breaking the hardest criminals
Thanks for the video
I remember a video about an prison with 1 fence easy to jump. Every imate have his own. Cottage. And own kitchen . They have their own kitchen. But they dont try to escape there . Was it Zweden or norway ?or mabey Finland. Even having friends and family come over to sleep there . . I did not know about it untill the infograpic show made a vid about it. Anybody remember wich one?
I have two pairs of pink handcuffs courtesy of MCSO. They are my most prized possessions.
In UK prisons all tobacco products are banned but you can buy vapes from the canteen (prison shop)
I live about 9 blocks from the squirrel cage jail. It's pretty brutal lookin and haunted AF I've heard
1:56 don’t do that,boot camp food is way better
Sheriff Joe's wife, from what I understand, owned the company that the prisoners had to buy their commissary from..
Yup
People don't THINK Joe used pink clothing to humiliate inmates, he said it himself. You can look it up on the Maricopa County Jail episode of Behind Bars or Inside the World's Toughest Prisons, I can't remember which
I remember when he said that.
Man the foundation probably will arrest you for using their logo but if they do thin i’ll strike them with lightning so don’t worry about them cause i’m a god next to them apart from the one that is in our dimension
Who cares they are in jail.
@@MS-wi9hn no one cares, I'm just pointing out that it's not a theory, it's a fact
@@MS-wi9hn decent people. Not pos ppl who refer to others as "criminals" or say asinine bs like that
Most of the others are fine but that pink underwear policy is strange
Not surprised! that your guys put the black dolphin prison in southern Siberia not surprised at all!
Man I personally did time in Arizona Sheriff’s Joe Jail tent city. The food is worse than Alpo can dog food, he made us wear pink underwear had pink towels, and pink stripes. Everything to take away your masculinity. Also they only feed you twice a day saying you only need 2000 calories to survive. Then they charge you $5 a day to be in jail so if you don’t have money on your commissary your gonna be in the hole when you do get money smh 🤦🏿♂️. Also the tents he had people sent to were like a real concentration camp. We were outside in 1950 old style military tents that hold 44 men in each tent and we were in 100 degree weather all year it’s in Phoenix Arizona and it’s definitely inhumane
Nonsense, you were lawfully convicted of a crime, how would you suggest society maintain peace and order if doesn't have a means of demanding penance? How can the 'average Joe' feel safe, and compensated for the damage, loss and physical injuries perpatrated? I'd like to see convicted lifer's have ALL their organs tissue typed, and sold to the highest bidder via the internet. I'm sick of the amount of money frittered away on individuals convicted of CLEARLY violent, selfish and socially destructive acts, rather society should consider solutions that not only segregate, but eradicate those who CHOOSE violence, criminality and other forms of wanton SELFISHNESS. WHY SHOULD WE SPEND AN EXTRA CENT, ISN'T WISER TO REMOVE A PEST, NOT HOUSE AND FEED IT!
i saw on national georgraphic as a kid this madness, i thought that was for murderers or smth sinister not for petty crimes and waiting the sentences, that's insane.
Nope not even close all I did is told someone to get away froM my property and I brandish a weapon and did a year in jail for aggravated assault and I didn’t even touch anybody
No tent city in Phoenix was for anyone from petty theft to dui to being deported. Actually there were no murders or hard criminals at the tents
Love your videos
Warden: "Listen up newbies....You follow my rules here......I've been dealing with guys like you for 30 years and you guys better believe I run my prison like clockwork, everything happens when I say it does...you do as your told, when your told."
"...Oh and by-the-way.....you pay rent or you get kicked out on the street."
😀
Cruel and unusual punishment 📜
Ah yes joe arpallo and his legendary pink suits…
99% of those in jail chose to behave in a criminal manner and don't deserve nice things while there. Plain and simple, don't do crimes, don't go to jail.
GIRL, PREACH🙌🏼
Stop using common sense. People in America today does not like it when people use common sense
Blows my mind how people feel sorry for these people in jail.
@@MS-wi9hn most people today can't be adults anymore and cry like a child will when it comes to responsibility and consequences to bad actions. It was first annoying....then got sad.....now, it's embarrassing
@@nexpro6118 Yeah but that doesn’t mean we should lock them into what is essentially modern versions of medieval dungeons. Like what does that do? Make them go even crazier?!
Power loyalty and respect Fresno CA
That Bolivian prison sounds like the biggest joke on the entire list.
0% punishment and 0% rehabilitation.
do you know what?ı didnt found but theres a monster hiding too.if you dont know in some videos theres a monster that hides.
As someone facing multiple felony’s out on bail watching this ain’t making me feel any better 27 days until court
Best try to dip to another country
I feel called out being a Pittsburgh resident 😂
Black Dolphin Prison, the modern day gulag, where news reporters not in putin's pocket go to be "re-educated"... :P
How the Arizona prison didn’t get sued for Egregiously Disobeying the eighth amendment is beyond me and yes it Applies to Those who are convicted as well
The prison system was sued. The case was throne out because, while the Supreme Court has said the police have a duty to protect prisoners, there is no way for prisoners to sue for their lack of protection while in prison.
There is a reason why it was considered shocking that the Court ruled you can't keep prisoners in a cell "covered floor to ceiling with an inch of excrement." It's because the Court usually doesn't pay attention to the "cruel and unusual punishment" clause of the Constitution.
It's jail, I agree with you but it's jail or prison, meaning something bad happened for you to be there, if you could figure out a way for everything to be better without costing tax payers money. Good luck, the less innocent get stuck with some of the worst
I love your vids
Do one about Canadian prison
It's more fun in the Philppines 😁

Weirdest and the #1 rule
*DONT DROP THE SOAP*
rule #1 in frisco.drop it for the co's
""Daddy, what's a shiv?" Hahahaha
The prison rules go from cool to insane
I was a resident at Sheriff Joe's tent city once upon a time. Thats was the worst place I ever was! You are starved and forced to work 12 hours a day. Terrible
Don’t break the law! Crybaby!
@@CaptKelso you don’t need to break the law just be accused of it.
In the “hole” in some prisons, you have to wear an orange jumpsuit. Federal prison especially. The jumpsuits get washed with white tighty-whiteys and T-shirt’s…the color bleeds and turns the underwear and shirts eventually turn pinkish. I understand that some punk county jails make inmates wear pink underwear but in the BOP, it’s pretty much accidentally.
10:04 If you wouldn’t even treat an animal in a certain manner, why treat a human like that? Do people not understand that people react to how they’re treated?
You can take 5 photos to Prison in Arkansa I hope I don't go to prison I live in Arkansas
I was in tent city back in Phoenix about 26 years ago, it was only pink boxers. The towers had pink everything, but it wasn't embarrassing, it was the uniform and EVERYONE was wearing it. He also didn't give any of us basic needs (tooth brushes, paste, cups, water) we had to drink out of a hose and anything from the commissary, which was vending machines, was owned by his family so they turned a profit. At one point they were able to pull anyone over who "looked illegal" for no reason, happened to me twice and I had to prove I was a U.S. citizen.
Chess and checker peices are used to make tatoo ink. Make a tube from paper. Put a peice of paper on top. Light the chess peice on fire. Put the paper over it. Scrape the the soot off of the paper. Mix it with water and some kind of detergent. Jail soap usually. Pulverize the meat with a peice of sharp metal, covered in the soup you've made. Jailhouse tatoo.
2016 did time in county, most of it lounging in my bunk watching cable tv while smoking my electric cigarette (10$) thinking this is messed up. Lol.
Love your chennel keep up the good work
1:02 he claimed the pink underwear was an attempt to humiliate the men in his jail. Same reason he makes them eat moldy sandwiches and work in horrible conditions
Anyone else addicted to these?
Well now I don’t wanna go to jail soooooo……
Cool story bro. Most people don't want to go. Doesn't mean you won't end up there.
7:13 Unless it’s a book about fighting techniques or building bombs, trying to control what a prisoner reads is just asinine
I love how Joe restricts, of all things, coffee. There are a million other amenities you could restrict.
So you don't get high off of it
If you want coffee, don't break the law to go to jail. How silly of me to say that....thats me asking for adults to be responsible and to understand certain actions have bad consequences....how silly of me to ask for that from adults
Because coffee is commonly used as currency in prison for trading ect
In Italy we pay for both rent and food, a very fun time
In Belgium we have a program in which judges and some ministers go to prison to experience what they do to people. It’s not the same as the real deal but still, maybe a good idea to try in the US
This video showed me how bad Americas prison system is compared to everywhere else
4:30 : Did The Infographics Show found a way to time travel?
That's one strange wall calendar.
@@sammyfamily2020 How is that strange? It’s just a random date.
@@ToonyTails the wall calendar is going backwards in time.
Those soy burgers are really low quality. They taste terrible. We call them rat patties.
Put the Prisoners in the CRYO PRISON and FREEZE them like in DEMOLITION MAN 😆
Or Bird person
I have been in 5 different county jails and 2 prisons in Wisconsin and no tobocco is allowed anywhere and most jails the food is worse than any school. NO jail out here will give you nicotine patches or anything. If you don't have money on your books you're not gonna have any of the FEW luxuries you CAN have like ramen noodles or some freeze dried coffee (except 1 of the 5 jails banned caffeine)
One of my favorite topics!
I rather die than go back to prison or jail
Infographics I got a video idea could you do it you could could you have a look in about Donald Trump could you go to Brisbane
"Breaking rocks in the hot sun" I see what you did there ;)
I fought the law and the law won
I'm addicted to pigger nussy 🤠
she must be a wonderful person 😊
I work at a prison we have more fights in the library then the weight room. More inmates like to workout so will not mess it uo
That sheriff needs to be put in jail What he was doing is cool and unusual You don't put people in jail to take advantage of them they are there to pay a debt to society Not for you to use them as you please He needs to do time in our jail the same way he made these people do it We'll see what he thinks of his policies then
Please tell me you meant cruel. Definitely not cool.
All this video shows, is just how backwards the American punitive system really is.
Prison and jail should be abolished
Or maybe alot of laws 🤔🤷♂️🤦♂️🙄🧐🤨😎👎
Your common sense has been abolished
@CryusTheFox says the man who thinks slavery will solve anything.
South Carolina has pink jumpsuits for the… uh… shooters 😂
12:52 Deym that guy in The Office was right
Sheriff JOE had the right idea - make jail so unpleasant that you wouldnt want to come back. Of course the trend of coddling criminals won out and now American cities are running rampant with crime and violence and most of them are turned loose without serving any time.
Have you even SEEN the other prison vids on this channel? Wouldn’t really call that “coddling”
lol using pink underwear because you think that will stop prison theft.... inmates use ramon noodles and coffee packets as currency. laundry is even more valuable. i cant tell you how many times an inmate has begged me for someones excess laundry when i pack their property after they are sent to confinement
