Kerry Cook describes his experience in the Texas prison system for twenty-two years. He explains that there are the “predators” and the “prey”. The predators rape the prey constantly, but when they go to tell authorities, they are completely ignored and told to “grow some and defend yourself”. Cook describes his experience as being sentenced to twenty-two years of torture.
Our system is so corrupted and needs to be corrected immediately. This is completely against our basic human rights that our country is built on. There also needs to be a cleansing through the prison authorities and hire those who can humanly carry out the job.
This is really interesting. I like the connection to history. Brett Akop
