They need to put ankle monitors on every inmate in that prison.
Or a ball and chain.

Based on that, I'm voting ball and chain. We don't need to funnel more tax payer cash into privatized incarceration.

Yes, glad that the guy was caught. It's a shame he wasn't shot. At least he was chewed on a bit.
