Isn't it SOP to remove the top officials during any investigation in both government & the private sector?
..... I am still rattled to learn that murderers were wearing street clothes, cooking in their cells & living in an "Honor Block." IMO if you have committed such a serious crime that society had to separate you from the rest of us, you by golly, deserve real prison. No extras because your family sends money for snacks & personal tvs. And by the way, killing & dismembering your boss IS a heinous crime.
As a very young child, I remember seeing chain-gang convicts clearing the roadside with scythes. And the guards were nearby with their rifles pointed at them. Sweating in the hot Georgia sun or freezing in the cold wind, was a bit more incentive to stay on the right side of the law than hot wings & movie night on the old cell block. GMAB!
I would like to see convicts working, if it's just digging holes & covering them back up. Real physical labor, not sewing class/bumping uglies in climate controlled buildings. I'll have to look into it now & I WILL be contacting elected officials to advocate for harsher penalties, but in my state, car tags used to be produced by inmates. And I think they did make prison uniforms, work in the kitchen, laundry or somewhere. Every able-bodied person had a job. Hopefully they were supervised closely enough to not allow that extra-curricular activity.
If the bleeding hearts want to give them an incentive plan, let them come in off the chain gang a couple hours early on Friday & maybe even allow them to see a tv show. I suggest Telletubbies.
I don't mind my tax dollars used for someone to learn vocational skills while incarcerated for minor offenses. That's very different.
I needed to unload. I'll step down off my bandbox now.
