Yes, but technically, RA was not really in solitary confinement.This is a good read, IMO
Psychiatric Effects of Solitary Confinement
The author, Dr. Grassian, is a Board Certified Psychiatrist who was on the faculty of the Harvard Medical School for over twenty-five years.
I have never heard of those in 'solitary' having a personal wifi tablet that they could make calls to home and friends and could listen to music and watch films and read books on. That does not sound very isolated.
I have never heard of someone in 'solitary' have trustee companions standing right at their door, to make sure they don'y self harm.
I have never heard of a prisoner in 'solitary' having a face to face visit with their psychologist every single day.
