American Corrections Discussion

Overview

1-Toward the end of chapter 08, various propositions are discussed aimed at reducing violence in prison.  Which of those would actually have the most impact on reducing violence in prison? 

2- One of the serious issues faced by prisons today is the occurrence of boundary violations.  What would you recommend in terms of policy to address this issue?   

3- Generally, parole board members have been immune to lawsuits arising from "bad" release decisions (i.e., parolee commits a heinous crime while on parole).  Do you believe they should be personally held liable for the decisions they make?
