SUPERMAX PRISON Zachary Hecht Period 8

The Supermax prison has to be the worst place in the world. It would be creul and wrong to send any normal person there, but the people that are there more than deserve it; at least in my opinion. The decision of whether or not to send a person to the prison involves a degree of perception. It depends on if you feel the crimes justify this kind of punishment. This choice is left to jurors and their personal perception. I am curious as to how the prisoners are able to survive from day to day. You always here stories about people going insane from isolation. The emotions that these criminals must deal with from a day to day basis must be unlike anything most people have known. These prisoners have no decisions to make and they live completely structured lives. Their emotions do not get to factor into their decisions, they have been robbed of every choice.
