There are prison systems all over the united states there are thosands of prison facilities.some prisons are clean and properly run.other prisons are inproperly run and prisoners are exposed to horrible treatment and disgusting and horrific atrocities in a horrible prison life.

In a prison in california a mother is pushing to have clean water in the prison due to arsenic pollution in the tap water it is more than two times the safe ammount.this is making the prisoners and her son who is serving time in this prison and is now sick. Another unfortunate occurance and a plauge that covers all prison is rape. prison rape is a dark well known secret that no one talks about in prisons prisons.

In early 2003 president George W. Bush signed the prison rape elimination act which cracked down on rape and gave out harsh consequences against the the rapists.It could be more jail time longer sentences and time in solitary confinement.this will hopefully be an end to these unfortunate happenings. http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/index.cfm?ty=tp&tid=20
