Question

2. What problems do for-private prisons bring up for Latinos in the criminal justice system.

Answer 1

Answer:

• High rates of violence.
• High employee turnover.
• Lack of qualified employees.
• Lack of training for employees.
• High economic expenditure.

Explanation:

Private prisons are institutions that confine criminals and are, in most cases, used by state governments through contracts with those governments. These contracts may cover the entire presidency or only part of it.

This type of prison presents a great economic expense in relation to the lack of infrastructure and qualified professionals it presents. This allows the rate of violence between detainees and between staff and detainees to be very high, in addition to compromising rights and fair treatment among detainees.
