A lot of prisons are run by electricity and computers. What happens when an EMP hits ??
Thinking that a world without barriers an protection measures is dangerously nieve even inder the best of times. As currently are there’s FAR TOO MANY wrong an even up to pure Evil minded people whom would delight in a system with basically an literally few, limited or no protection measures what so ever. Such a world wouldn’t be a safe, productive or functional world for very long would think
No halfway through building it they started using salt water instead of bringing in freshwater. and the salt in the concrete rusted all the bolts.
Civilized and rickers island.…lol.…that’s laughable.…those 2 words dont belong in the same sentence.…
Great show. Thank you so much ❤

Prisons with both bunk and cell styles are safer just cos the variety accommodates the types of prisoners
Sabe the money and put those animals away in an island

Corrupt and convicted felon Bernie Kerik lecturing on anything related to LE is priceless
The electronic ankle bracelet is bs. It let’s criminals back on the street and they often commit more crimes
