On our tax dollars? I know that we have DNA testing that needs to be done much more quickly so that those that are not guilty can be released. Keeping people imprisoned for ten, twenty, or more years is a waste of time and money... build individual runs for daily exercise. I cannot afford to join a gym or higher education, yet my tax dollars are paying for multiple degrees for these degenerates. They hide behind :finding God". Can we be that daft to fall for that???

      Yea US prisons like to adopt the 'learn from ur mistakes' systems back in the day. They create what they thought was a great prison but find out inmates have nothing but time to scheme, find weaknesses & CO vulnerabilities to use against the system. After escapes the prisons fix the weaknesses that were exploited previously and when building new prisons they use the past to form once again the new 'escape proof' prison, only to find someone else is actually smarter than they are.

    When I was a kid, I used to think all criminals were dumb people; people who were too dumb to follow laws. When I reached my teen years, I learned just how smart some actually are. Especially people who've committed elaborate crimes and those who outsmarted prison complexes. The prisoners in this doc. here made literal history when they escaped. Let this be a lesson to us all that we should never underestimate certain people. These people waltzed right out of a super-max prison front door without killing anyone, then leading police on a wild goose chase when everyone realized what happened. Talk about unbelievable...

      The manhunt over 3 weeks to recapture 6 killers, probably cost more than the facility.
      It might have been cheaper to up the guards salaries by a couple of bucks each!

      No, the facility was designed incorrectly- as the many electronically controlled doors and checkpoints needs staffing around the clock, which consumed 1/3rd of the available staff at those positions alone.
      Additionally, the administration felt that due to recent court victories in lawsuits, that the "ACLU was running Mecklenburg". In particular, they bristled at being required to give death row inmates 8 hours pod time (out of their cells) per day.

      Just outnumbered. They needed money and resources. Too many variables to plan once out. Plus the FBI got involved so they never had a chance. Most people can't outsmart the FBI. They have every resource available. Resources we don't even know about. Of course they'll always win. Maybe a true genius who worked for them could. He'd need unlimited funds and extreme hacking skills. Still a hacker that can trace them tho. Pointless

    If they’re all on death row and they’re all convicted murderers it is amazing to me that they didn’t kill any of the guards. I wonder why? I know this was in 1984 but $13,000 a year that’s insane!

    • @heathereagleson1098
