Female inmates are forced to work on a chain gang, wearing bags of rocks on their backs, if they want three meals a day. They work digging graves and burying people: homeless, elderly, infants. One woman had to bury her own baby. The draconian sheriff, a self-styled Old West hero, has instituted cost-cutting measures. Slashing inmates’ caloric intakes. Housing them outside in tents in 125°F (52°C) weather. Feeding them ruined batches of processed food. And all this for mass murder? Serial child molestation? Genocide? No. Petty theft, substance abuse problems, and prostitution.
What third-world country am I talking about? Phoenix, Arizona.
