In a world that demands justice when the unthinkable becomes reality, there are no easy answers when that reality involves minors. The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world and remains the only nation that, in rare circumstances, will sentence its juveniles to life without parole. Is it a solution? Does it work? Do we care?”

1)Some differences when it comes to security levels within the jails, state, and federal systems are costs, inmate/worker ratio, building security upgrades, inmate privilege’s. The cost of housing an inmate in prison goes up depending on the level of security prison they are in being minimum/low/maximum. This applies to the inmate to guard ratio as well being that more guard to inmate ratio is increased the higher level security it goes up. The prison building is also upgraded more on security depending on if its minimum/low/maximum, for example a maximum prison can have non-lethal shock fences as well as gun towers, compared to a minimum prison which does not. And last the inmate privilege’s go down the higher the level of security the prison is, for example in a max. prison they have less freedom and time to do stuff compared to a min. prison who have quit a bit of free space and extra activities to help them return to a normal life.

Some of the factors that have a leading cause in population growth in jails, state, and federal prisons are drug crime enforcement, slowing down on inmate processing, and an increase in women inmates. Drug crime enforcement is a direct stem from the 1980’s War on Drugs, this hasn’t help the viewpoint that America has on small drug crimes. For example marijuana is one of the basics if not common type of drug found everywhere, and its slowly catching on with some states legalizing it or others decriminalizing it. Still this drug in particular doesn’t need to be a crime that constantly fills the jails. Another issue is inmate processing is slowing down, this means that pretrial criminals are in jail awaiting trial for far to long. And the last issue that has increase jail population is an increase in women inmates. This means that society is starting to show equal punishment’s as well as not being bias when it comes to arresting a man over a woman.

2)

county (local), state, and federal are all provided money by tax payers. these facilities are housing both females and male. county jail is usually all under one roof with separate units for men and women. they provide options for education, drug addiction classes and many other resources for those looking to have some chance at a successful reentry to society. some of the differences are the number of facilities. there are less federal prison then state and local. another one is what offenders are housed in the facility. county is usually used for small offences, holding for local court dates, and housing people for a other prisons.

state prisons come with 3 security levels minimum security is for those who are non-violent and usually are charged with embezzlement and other white collar crimes. medium security is for those who have minor assault charges and other non-life threatening crimes. maximum security is for those who have committed heinous crime against the community and or individuals. these places have units and sub units, solitary confinement, and protective custody. federal prison tends to have a higher security then state prison. this facility is for those who commit crimes that violate our federal law. one of the most common law violation is drug trafficking and other drug offences along with treason.

outside of lengthy prison sentencing another reason jails and prisons are over crowded are from parole violations. the number of people out on parole is about twice the amount that are imprisoned and with about 22% who violate and are sent back to prison. what the leading cause of most crimes comes down to demographics and education options. it is more likely for lower income families to commit crimes then upper class according to the statics. meaning you will more then likely see people who have suffered in poverty be ones who end up in federal jail vs one who has committed a white-collar crime like stilling a lager amount of money from company and hiding it in illegal companies or in fake accounts
