Yes, these unions spend a fortune fighting many needed changes, primarily because the changes will cost them jobs. For every 1 person arrested, 29 benefit financially! And most of them are not helping anyone – neither society nor an individual. What these articles do not tell you is that, in fact, guards frequently make up false “write ups” in order to place inmates in solitary to shut them up! They do not want inmates to...
