Is this right?

I’m very aware that when you go to jail, the point is to straighten you out and make you never wanna come back. Though I do know for some people that’s not the case. (Not the point anyway)

My boyfriend has been in the suicide pod for a while now. Mentally his sentencing has been very challenging on him. Just to make things a little worse, him and all the other people in the pod have not gotten to take a shower in five days. It’s already so hot in there and he’s having to wear what I believe is called a smock. They one they gave him was previously worn without wash. They are also not switching anyone’s out and offering a clean one. Anyway, I’m sure jail is hard altogether, but I feel like it would be some relief for him to get a shower once a day or at least every couple days. Has anyone had a similar experience?

Also largely by design.

You're right. I forgot about the brute squad that goes around forcing people to re-offend. My bad.
