More pale and more bald, they're not going to let him take his makeup and combover assembly tab into jail
The thing is, there are jails, and then there are luxury jails.
Please tell me that this is parody. Oof..
Gpt did some lookups for me, found 2 other sources. I had no idea it was so bad:
The concept of "luxury prisons" in the United States, especially for the wealthy, does have some basis in reality, although it's important to clarify what is meant by "luxury" in this context. The idea of luxury prisons emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s, particularly for wealthy individuals convicted of white-collar crimes. These prisons were designed to offer more comfortable surroundings than traditional prisons, with amenities such as high-end furnishings, luxurious bedding, private bathrooms, gourmet meals, personal trainers, and spa treatments. Some private corporations began building or leasing such facilities, leading to a debate over the ethical and justifiable nature of these institutions ➊.
Critics argue that luxury prisons provide preferential treatment to affluent individuals and undermine the principle of equal treatment under the law. There is a concern that they create a two-tiered system within the prison system, where the wealthy receive better treatment and opportunities for rehabilitation, while those who cannot afford such facilities are left in overcrowded, underfunded facilities ➋.
For example, the Butner Federal Correctional Complex in Durham, North Carolina, a minimum-security prison known for housing white-collar criminals like Bernie Madoff, offers good medical facilities, television, classes, and policies that reward good behavior. It's seen as a facility where wealthy inmates can receive more comfortable and lenient treatment ➌.
The operation of these luxury prisons is considerably more expensive than traditional prisons. Inmates in luxury prisons can pay up to $100,000 per year for their cells, which is significantly higher than the average cost of housing an inmate in a traditional prison ➍. The privatization of prisons has led to the growth of luxury prisons owned by for-profit corporations, raising concerns over whether the motives behind these facilities prioritize prisoner well-being or profits ➎.
In conclusion, while there is evidence of prisons in the United States that offer more comfortable conditions and amenities, particularly for wealthy inmates, these institutions are a subject of controversy. They are seen as perpetuating a two-tiered justice system and may lead to increased inequality in the criminal justice system ➏.
