Prison Food

In Prison or Country Jail the food that is served to the inmates is more of less bad. Which I don't understand as a lot of prison/jails grow their own veg. Cooking on a big scale is always hard. But it can be done well, if cooked right. Some of these photos shown here, their is no excuse for the food looking more like slop.

Inmates need to eat three times per day, I have found out that jail food is the worst, and prison food is only a little better. The inmates should take pride in what they cook, but they don't want to be in jail/prison in the first place. So their is no pride in what they do.

If the jail/prison can grow their own food then all the better. Meat will have to be still shipped in from the outside, but most of the other things can be grown on the site.

That also leads on to the Hard Labor I have been talking about. To make the inmates farm for their food, maybe they would take pride in what they make and serve to the other inmates.

Video jail/prison link

This is used by many country's around the world. An easy way to put inmates in a court room setting with out leaving the jail/prison. In prison it is also used for visiting with inmates that are housed in different parts of the country, far away from their family's.

This can also be used as a control over inmates as a tool to keep them in line. The video link is set up in a special room were a guard is to sit just out of view, to monitor what is talked about by the inmate and their family's.
The court video link is set up in the same small room or in a larger, maybe a visiting room were a group of inmates can sit and wait for a guard to tell them it's their turn to talk with the judge.    

Hard Labor Chain Gangs Part 2

Chain Gangs,

Chain Gangs are still used in the USA. Arizona, Florida and Alabama are the top States to use Chain Gangs on a daily basis. Where groups of men are chained in a long line to work out side the prison walls. These jobs could be picking up litter, road work or farm work.
 I Think this could work for inmates in the UK. As with Rock Braking, Food could be served at the side of the road. As with the USA, striped clothing can be used to show that they are inmates and they are being punished, and to use shackles around the legs.
Again each inmate should work six days per week and only let off if ill.
It may not stop crime, but I am shore that a guy would think about getting arrested and knowing what will happen to him and what his sentence will be. It may stop a few.     

This is a gang of robbers that are arrested in a flat, each one is taken one by one down to the street, to be taken of by the police, watch out for robber three, the boxer shorts work well for this bad boy.

Escape From A Prison Van In UK,

In the last few months their have been a number of escapes of inmates from prison vans. Mark Allan Lilley, John Anslow and Kirk Bradley, and a few more. They seem to pick the same time to make their escape. When they are in the prison van on their way from prison to the court room. Lilley escaped from the van on his way to court in Manchester. He ended up being arrested in Spain after many months on the run.

The prison van is the weak point in the movement of the inmates. The inmate is locked into a small cubical in some cases the inmate is handcuffed for the journey.
The small room in the prison van is known as the "sweat box" by the inmates. If they are being moved to a prison that is at the other end of the country they can be locked in the sweat box for many hours. Kirk Bradley is also an inmate that was sprung from a prison  van on rote  to court. In the end he was rearrested in Holland.
So gang members must have known the time and date of both inmate transfers. Was their an inside job?.

Hard Labor Rock Braking Part 1

Rock Braking

As with all the work I will talk about, the inmate will work 6 days per week 8 am to 4 pm. With 15 minutes for a lunch brake. Water brakes when needed.
Rock Braking is a good one to start with. No real use for it only to make the inmate work real hard, back braking work. With this work they will know crime does not pay. Each day the inmate will be taken by the prison van to the place of work. Two guards to each inmate to watch over them, food could be stew that can be heated on the spot. Served in steel bowls. Inmates will use a pickaxe for the braking of the rocks, unless ill all inmates will go to work.
