Chapter 12 Extra Credit: Violent Offenders
Prison staff's response to violent offenders is to segregate those individuals into a maximum security cell for up to 23 hours a day. This segregation may last for years at a time, often impacting the mental health of the inmate. Research segregation within a prison and discuss the results of your research in detail in order to demonstrate an understanding of the issue.
Also, give your opinion if this is the only viable alternative to handling the violent inmate. Provide a link to at least one internet site you researched. Sites such as ask.com, answers.com, Wikipedia.com, wisegeek.com do not rise to the level of academic research and are not acceptable.
