Here are some links where you can find some facts about inmates and their situation. America is the only place where you can get a life sentence for writing a bad check. Increased punishment does not decrease crime it just fills the prisons faster. Do not believe everything you see on TV or read in a paper. Please do some research of your own and try and keep an open mind. The internet is an easy place to get facts not stories.
