Solitary Confinement. Part 2.

Another meeting away from the office all day and another ride home during NPR's "All Things Considered" allowed me to hear the second part in their series on solitary confinement.

It's worth listening to if you are interested in the issue. And again I think the part we need to focus on is the fact the most of these men get released without any preparation to survive and our entire society needs to wake to this. If we don't, it will continue to be a problem.
Almost every inmate in isolation will be released back into the public one day. But there are a few prison officials who are rethinking the idea of isolation -- and wondering if there might be a better way.
