solitary confinement

although many people in the US do not agree with the use of solitary confinement in the prisons, i agree with the system to an extent. i feel that the prison officers have the right to do what they whant to the prisioners in their prison but not putting them in solitary confinement for longer than a year at a time.

if i were to draft a law regulating the use of solitary confinement, i would make it so solitary confinement is completely by yourself for a period of time up to a year at a time. the time of length you are in there depends on what you do in the prison. if you come out of solitary confinement and do something again, then you go right back in there again for a certain amount of time. also they could have two hours of outside time a day, along with an hour of lunch and dinner and 10 minute shower. during these times they must be by themselves with no one to talk to and they must make their own food with only a spoon.

in my prison system, i would deffinitly let the prison officials have a "free hand" in what they do in their own prisons. they see whats going on the best and they know how the prisoners act. the only restriction there would be would be only one year at a time but you can go back in if you do something that is bad enough.

i would allow prisoners to challenge their solitary confinement only if they really think they have not doine anything wrong. the prison must have good evidence that you actually did something bad enough to go into solitary confinement. they must be able to prove their point.

solitary confinement is good to try and fix people but to a limit. they must be able to prove that the prisoner did something also making it so they cant just throw people in there.
