À propos de cet audio

The American prison system is a way of punishment for lawbreaking offenses under the state and federal authority. It is criticized for being inhumane, ineffective, and flawed. It has high incarceration rates, especially for non-violent crimes. It has different levels of security and control for inmates, ranging from medium-security facilities to supermax prisons1. According to Wikipedia, over five million people are under supervision by the criminal legal system. Nearly two million people are incarcerated in state or federal prisons and local jails, 2.9 million people are on probation, and over 800,000 people are on parole2. The United States maintains a higher incarceration rate than most developed countries, with incarceration rate growing sharply since the 1970s2. The expenses related to prison, parole, and probation operations have an annual estimated cost of around $81 billion
