Expert Insights

People often don’t understand that addiction runs rampant in state prison systems. Back in 2010, I received the biggest culture shock of my life – I was sentenced to four years in prison for a drunk driving conviction. Something I was consistently shocked by was the availability of alcohol and drugs inside prison – and it was almost always a group of male prison guards sneaking in the contraband. Every time the women had an opportunity to get high, there was no hesitation. When the buzz wore off, the physical withdrawals and mental anguish always came back with a vengeance. This is not conducive to an environment of rehabilitation.
