I know that anytime something that should be handled by the government is given over to contractors, employees often get screwed - long hours, low pay, and few rights. I also know that in any type of prison system prisoners are open to abuse. <br /><br />Unfortunately, we do not hear much about Arizona private prison abuse here in Arizona. I would be very interested in learning more.<br /><br />I am concerned about your reference to escapes. I've been here a year and a half and have not heard of any prison escapes in this state. Our county sheriff lost a high profile prisoner recently, but that is the only escape that I have seen reported in the local press.<br /><br />I would also be very interested in learning more about the scam by the Texas hucksters that you mentioned.<br /><br />I'm going to research your allegations and would welcome sources or other information. What you have presented is very interesting. If these local private prisons are as awful as you claim, we need to start making some noise about it.<br /><br />Many thanks.<br /><br />Rocky Macy<br />Litchfield Park, AZPa Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747526882424245608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8750244306663708036.post-20972007607500196032009-05-28T02:11:53.515-07:002009-05-28T02:11:53.515-07:00Private prisons aren't "working" in Arizona or any...Private prisons aren't "working" in Arizona or anywhere else unless you cound frequent escapes and murders as "working." They have all sorts of problems.
