You tell us.

I'll try. Start in the 1980's. About that time, the prison had tons
of money. Mandatory sentences. One prison had 5 staff getting in the
way of what 1 staff would do in eight hours. Fighting the Cocaine
Cowboys, Columbians and other do bad's, and stink eyes, red headed
step child.

Federal prisons double, populations doubled. Strategic plans over
years was to close minimum security camps. Transform to some
"privately owned prisons".
