His day in court came at the hands of a judge who sentenced a weeping Billy to the maximum 3 years in prison for cocaine possession. Prison is the place of unspeakable brutalities. Prison is where inmates are beaten, knifed and given the advent of AIDS, raped to death.
Prison is where nourishing food and needed medication are virtually nonexistant.
Prison is most certainly not where you send someone to save their life. Prison is where substance abusers and other nonviolent offenders, male and female, are sent to fill quotas. Privatized prisons are big business. Existing and projected prison industry even bigger business. Florida and Oregon lead the pack in profits from prison slave labor.
