Prisoner Rights What if your rights had been violated and there was nothing that could be done about it. What about being stuck in a jail cell and routinely beaten and raped by cellmates while the guards turned their heads. What if these claims were brought to court but were consistently turned down and eventually ignored. This may be a tough situation to imagine however there are over 2 million criminals in jail around the country …showed first 75 words of 1428 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1428 total…It's a shame that because of few corrupt cases congress felt they had to impose a law that would save money even though a minority of cases would be deal with unfairly. The attitude that it's ok to throw legitimate cases out because the majority of claims are bogus is a hasty generalization that should corrected. Isn't it our civic duty to stand up for the helpless, the ones that cannot stand up for themselves.
