That is a great post Pat and the way it should be!! Human rights has a lot to answer for, as unfortunatley, the victim & their families get nothing (or imprisoned wrongly: )
As I understand it the UK cannot have the death penalty brought back, (if wanted by society), due to European Court of Human Rights now... We truely do live in a crazy world

We couldn't restore the death penalty on account of our piss poor judicial system. We hung one too many innocent ones in the past and would have hung a few more since 1963 had the death penalty still been on the cards!
On the surface, yes it's very satisfying to see the criminals suffer under Sherrif Joe. My only concern is that some of these guys will come out of prison hardened and strengthened and more of a menace to society than when they went in.
Equally though, I'd do away with these conjugal visits, pool tables, tvs and the rest. It's not meant to be a hotel. But I am reliably informed that it's no holiday camp. There are more people praying in Saughton and Barlinnie Prisons than there are in the Vatican and that when divorce papers are served that grown men cry like babies.

his only Vice to MY knowledge is that he doesnt have a bunch of Politicians locked up also !

Some like him, some don't..... Even some deputies and other police officials do not like him.. WHY?? He AIN'T "politically correct".. Joe is one tough SOB.. He goes by the letter of the law when it comes to enforcement, and leaves the prosecution part to the legal system. Here in Maricopa County, you break the law, you get arrested. PERIOD... The sentence is up to the judicial system.
Joe says, "you don't like my jail, don't come back"..

I guess the inmates at Sherrif Joe's don't usually come back, so that kind of proves his way is more effective. (About ten years ago I researched a paper about the "revolving door" of our jails and prisons. At that time it was about 62 %. Uncool.) Still, I don't know if I think I completely agree with Sherrif Joe's entire way of doing. 
just being honest.------ This poll is Archived ------

I work for our county courthouse, in our department we have had a lot of "worker inmates" male and female, they do have it easy in California. We have had sooo many repeat offenders and they would come work in our department when they were back in jail! Crazy!
I have children in the military and my son has told me of the heat in Iraq...we live in a hot climate where my son grew up at 110 as the norm for summer, but that is nothing compared to Iraq.
I was on the phone one time with my son while he was in Iraq and gunfire broke out...I heard this over the phone. I have seen my son's prison camp (where he worked..go figure with the content of this thread) come under attack while just reading the news on the internet. I am proud of my children, but the fear I went through until they were back on American soil is something indescribable for me.
It's just too bad they can't send these inmates to Iraq...yes I understand they'd probably turn the guns on their commanding officers! But then again...just give them their wits and their charm...same thing that got them in jail...wouldn't this be a better place? That or Joe's tent world!!

SHERRIF JOE GOOD OR BAD(Vote Below)
USA JAIL - SOME INTERESTING READING
TO THOSE OF YOU NOT FAMILIAR WITH JOE ARPAIO, HE IS THE MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF (ARIZONA) AND HE KEEPS GETTING ELECTED OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
These are some of the reasons why:
Sheriff Joe Arpaio created the 'tent city jail' to save Arizona from spending tens of millions of dollars on another expensive prison complex.
He has jail meals down to 20 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.
He banned smoking and pornographic magazines in the jails, and took away their weightlifting equipment and cut off all but 'G' movies. He says:
'They're in jail to pay a debt to society not to build muscles so they can assault innocent people when they leave.'
He started chain gangs to use the inmates to do free work on county and city projects and save taxpayer's money.
Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn't get sued for discrimination.
He took away cable TV until he found out there was a federal court order that required cable TV for jails. So he hooked up the cable TV again but only allows the Disney channel and the weather channel.
When asked why the weather channel, he replied: 'So these morons will know how hot it's gonna be while they are working on my chain gangs.'
He cut off coffee because it has zero nutritional value and is therefore a waste of taxpayer money. When the inmates complained, he told them, 'This isn't the Ritz/Carlton. If you don't like it, don't come back.'
He also bought the Newt Gingrich lecture series on US history that he pipes into the jails. When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a Democrat, he replied that a democratic lecture series that actually tells the truth for a change would be welcome and that it might even explain why 95% of the inmates were in his jails in the first place.
With temperatures being even hotter than usual in Phoenix (116 degrees just set a new record for June 2nd 2007), the Associated Press reported: About 2,000 inmates living in a barbed wire surrounded tent encampment at the Maricopa County Jail have been given permission to strip down to their government-issued pink boxer shorts.
On the Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing pink boxer shorts were overheard chatting in the tents, where temperatures reached 128 degrees.
'This is hell. It feels like we live in a furnace,' said Ernesto Gonzales, an inmate for 2 years with 10 more to go. 'It's inhumane.'
Joe Arpaio, who makes his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, is not one bit sympathetic. 'Criminals should be punished for their crimes - not live in luxury until it's time for parole, only to go out and commit more crimes so they can come back in to live on taxpayers money and enjoy things many taxpayers can't afford to have for themselves.'
The same day he told all the inmates who were complaining of the heat in the tents: 'It's between 120 to 130 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents too, and they have to walk all day in the sun, wearing full battle gear and get shot at, and they have not committed any crimes, so shut your damned mouths!'
Way to go, Sheriff! If all prisons were like yours there would be a lot less crime and we would not be in the current position of running out of prison spaces.
If you agree, pass this on.
If not, just delete it.
