To clarify, I didn't say your personal story of being a criminal and how you reformed yourself was a lie.
I said your assertions about the prison system in general and what's available EVERYWHERE was a lie. And it was. Period.
Just shut up. You're uninformed & making yourself look stupid. Most prisons do not have the physical space for every program under the sun because of major overcrowding problems. As a result many states Institute programs that convicts must complete after leaving the prison but before being released to the general population. Halfway houses, live in rehab centers & for less violent convicts out patient programs. Almost all mandatory as a condition of pre release or parole.
You have contributed jack shit to this thread so just **** off already.
