Westminster Hall debate on Imprisonment for Public Protection (#IPP) Sentences, @CommonsJustice report and Government response â Thursday 27 April 2023: highlights 𧔠1/44
Opening the debate @CommonsJustice chair @neill_bob explains #IPP sentences were abolished in 2012 mainly because âfar more people fell within the scope of the scheme than had been the political intentionâ, but Govt âdid not deal with those who were already serving sentencesâ2/44
â621 of those prisoners are at least 10 years over their tariff and 222 of those received a tariff of less than two yearsâ @neill_bob reveals â âfive times longer than the index sentence that ⊠the judge who heard the facts thought was the appropriate tariff for the offenceâ3/44

"Guys are v. excited to get behind a coffee machine, seeing how it works, and how to make a coffee. We move away from 'theory behind coffee' to actually doing it: learning whilst doing. Guys love it. They become more confident [...] It gets competitive. But they love the process"

Correctional facilities are not mandated to track or report pregnancy-related data & most facilities do not have any routine process for collecting such information - another reason why we are saying YES on HB23-1187 #copolitics #leadership #reproductivehealth

#Prison #Récidive Une récente étude @justice_gouv actualise notre connaissance de la récidive en France. Il s'agit du suivi d'une cohorte de condamnés détenus libérés en 2016.
Le rĂ©sultat central : 54% ont commis 1 nouvelle infraction (ou +) dans les 3 ans, inscrite au CasierâŹïž

Deux points assez surprenants :

Thread. Ă Fresnes, rien ne semble avoir bougĂ© depuis la construction en 1898. Ni le vaste porche dâentrĂ©e, ni les trois immenses bĂątiments qui barrent le quadrilatĂšre ceint de murs, les « divisions ». La dĂ©lĂ©gation sillonne ce lieu dâHistoire. #prison
bvoltaire.fr/reportage-fresâŠ
bvoltaire.fr/reportage-fresâŠ
Les trois « divisions » sont desservies par des couloirs voĂ»tĂ©s : 5 Ă 6 mĂštres de plafond Ă vue de nez, parquet au sol, fresques au mur reprĂ©sentant dâanciens prisonniers cĂ©lĂšbres. #prison
Chaque « division » est identique : vaste couloir central coiffĂ© dâun filet (pour parer aux chutes volontaires des dĂ©tenus qui enjamberaient les parapets), trois Ă©tages Ă droite et Ă gauche percĂ©s de petites portes de bois, basses, Ă©troites.
1. A thread on mainstream theories of incarceration - retribution, rehabilitation, deterrence, restoration, incapacitation - which are gaslighting narratives that provide a smokescreen for racial capitalism:
2. Many critics say the American carceral system is based on retribution but I disagree. It's based on racial capitalism. All of the above principles - not just retribution - are in fact utilised to enforce a system of racial capitalism...
3. If you look at actual court cases, sometimes judges sentence someone to punish them; other times, they sentence someone "for their own good," because they "can't take care of themselves"...
This is my research into the Kafkaesque user experience offered by @FAFSA when chatting with the Federal Student Aid Information Center to find out very basic contact information for an incarcerated borrower.
This means that unless an incarcerated borrower is at the rare prison that has approved the 1-800 number for @usedgov or there is a prison staff who helps them call, they have no way to find out basic #studentloan info like servicer or balance, even if they have outside help

I recently spoke at @verainstituteâs 60th Anniversary Gala and shared some of my story of how I got my first chance to be the person I wanted to be in prison. Hereâs more about my journey and what it says about âchancesâ for system-impacted people.
I talked about needing to prove myself right. But I didnât care what other people thought. It was always for myself. No one should have to prove their humanity for basic needs. We all deserve a quality education, regardless of zip code, race, or incarceration status.

It is important to explore the practical implications of an ethically designed prison. Alongside securing humane & just prison environments, prisons should also contribute to the realization of other correctional aims like rehabilitation, safety, & successful reintegration.
Correctional staff may considerably benefit from ethically designed prisons, so they are not being asked to do âimpossible work in impossible conditionsâ. Still, corrections budgets are often tight, & what is most effective to invest in needs careful evidence-driven assessment.

A few more observations on sex offenders, a topic that is very much in the public eye at the moment. Yesterday I watched #FourLives. Stephen Merchant was excellent as Port, a very limited and mediocre man, yet one who still ran rings around the ineptitude of the authorities.
Making society safer and preventing victims not only includes the need for resources, but also requires a comprehensive understanding of accurate offense patterns and risk. Who victims are, how offenders act. A great deal is now digital, or has links to.
Offenders will take steps to cover their tracks, they will not willingly face justice, they will lie, manipulate, mislead. What wasn't shown in #FourLives is Port used friends abroad of one victim to stay informed about how police were investigation was progressing.
Well said Jamie. It's because I have been around and worked with some of the most manipulative, preditory male sex offenders this country has to offer that I know the harm well intentioned progressive idealism can do. It needs to stop.
Would some male sex offenders game the system? I have literally seen how sex offenders operate. Some will take your progressive idealism and naive nature and exploit it, ruthlessly. Anyone remember the subtle video that was used in #prison anti-corruption training? The letter?
A new prison officer is kind enough to post the letter outside for 'nice guy' Dave off the wing. The letter, a card to Dave's daughter. His victim, on her Birthday. Huge trauma and hurt. The officers job, over. Being kind, I d say some progressives here are the same level naive.
