Prisons here cant be that brilliant here, or all the homeless people would commit crime for the sake of a more permenant home. I have never been in a prison, but I remember someone telling me the other day, that they met an ex-convict who said it'd be better to spend a lifetime in prison as a terrorist than a week in prison as a rapist.

I think it was my friend Lydia, as she's working on the Innocence project at the moment and we were discussion how they arent going to be working on rape cases because the tutor doing it with them doesnt seem to agree with women working on rape cases, but both me and my friend thought it was much more important to work on freeing wrongly convicted rapists because it was a very tainting label to be a convicted rapist.

I havent asked her yet what kind of cases they have been set to work on, but I will see what they've been set.

I know that was a bit off topic, but it was meant to be about the quality of life in prison, but it wandered a little.
