    Probably the saddest thing is that you have so many innocent people in jail, and even once you can prove they're innocent, it's a long shot to get them out and takes forever.

      @SeanTrn 3 года назад +15

      I know right. And then they also coerce some innocent people into pleading guilty by trying to cut some sort of deal to be let out quicker. Otherwise even when you’re totally innocent, while awaiting trial your stuck behind bars. A few months later (if you’re lucky) you’ll get your day in court. By then you’ve lost your job, your apartment, your car... it’s sickening

      I live in scotland and I was arrested at 22, I'm five foot four and was seven stone at the time, and was being accused of walking up to a six foot five polish guy and beating him up for no reason. The evidence: I had walked past where the guy was assaulted earlier on in the day and had dropped the keycard to the homeless hostel I was staying in at the time. I was given a fully commital (the scottish term for a 140 day remand) my lawyer kept trying to convince me to plead guilty, bearing in mind that at the petition court in scotland you're facing up to five years but I refused. When the trial date came and when I was led up from the cells in handcuffs, the victim looked at me and his face looked really confused. Three times he asked if he was in the right courtroom and was told he was. When he was asked if he could see the person who attacked him and he looked around the courtroom then said "no" he was asked "what about the defendant in the dock? To which he replied "I said a man attack me, this is little girl you have on trial" I burst out laughing and couldn't stop so I was taken back down to the cells. An hour later I was released with the charges dropped. I know I was laughing but I actually missed my dads funeral and being on remand had caused me to be homeless. I got no compensation or even as much as an apology

    I see a lot of great videos you make about prisons, especially the ones in the US. This makes sense since US imprisons the most people and it's very relevant. However, if you are looking at crazy prison facts globally and throughout the history, you should definitely mention the Gulag system of the USSR. By far, it was one of the most brutal and inhumane prisons systems of the world - I read three books of Archipelago Gugal which covered all the insane facts happening in the prison and here are some facts I learned:
    -At times, prisoners could be sent to a camp that wasn't even built. They would unload the train in the middle of cold Siberian forest and inmates would have built the camps for themselves.
    -In one of the coldest regions of the world, prisoners could be build dams, railroads or just chop wood for more than 12 hours a day without gloves, coats, sometimes shoes. Needless to say, people who did this kind of labor, which was majority of the sentenced, died very fast and never got out of the camps.
    -No trials were ever conducted to most of the prisoners. Most of them were engineers, doctors, intellectuals, and just random people who would get imprisoned in the middle of the night. Some estimate that close to 20% of St. Petersburgh has been sentenced to labor camps.
    -Some solitary confinement could have water up to the stomach and the person was supposed to spend 2 weeks in there.
    All of this was done to build the infrastructure of the USSR...the infrastructure that proved to be completely unused...like the currently underused trans-siberian railroad, the "Belomor" canal that doesn't see any ships coming through it and so on. Definetely something that people don't mention as often.

The Prisoner wants to get his Freedom so its legal to break out of Prison 😂 but every other crime you commit while you're breaking out will be counted. Sorry if my English is Not the Best, its 2 am for me 😅
    Edit: I found this, Google is explaining better than i Do 😂
    In some countries such as Mexico,Germany and Austria Prison escape is not punishable by law . In Mexico, Germany, Austria the law recognizes that it is basic human nature to escape and hence the act of escaping itself is not a crime, although you may be punished for any other crime that you commit during your escape.

      Well, yes and no. That just means that you can’t have any time added to your sentence just for escaping in and of itself, but you still have to serve the remainder of the original sentence if you are caught again.
      And, any and all other crimes you might commit during the escape still count. Fighting prison officers on your way out, for example, is still assault against officer, which can and will be added to your sentence.

      Very interesting! Thank you for the posting of this information. Even as a kid, I recall thinking punishment for escaping was a bit inappropriate. As mentioned, escape would cross all our minds as an option to ponder while starting out a sentence. Additionally, the institution should receive reprimand as well. Their lack of complete security facilitates the escape to begin with. Overall, an unfair punishment levied upon any rational member of society!

    I do remember in 2012 when I was doing 3 months in the county jail for a DUI and a couple of trespass charges when I was homeless. Haven't ever been to the state prison, I guess none of my charges were severe enough to qualitfy for time in prison. At least for Florida, your sentence would have to be a year and a day or more to qualify for state prison.

    Ok but the funniest thing to me about Moondine Joe is that the wardens gave him the tools to break out, as the prison was still under construction being built by the prisoners when he escapes. He just piled up the mined rock high enough for them to not be able to see him and off he went. You can still see the hole in if you go to the Freo Prison.

He just gotten back from some leadership program where he learned that tests given to students in third and fourth grade set the bar for future prison populations. The percentage of students that cannot read by 3rd and 4th grade is the same percentage of the population that they will plan and build prisons for.
