    It is astonishing that such a place can still exist in the 21st century, especially in the US. The US really need to do something about their prison system. It is atrocious, and the recidivism rate is much too high. But I guess that is what you can expect from a country that is controlled by the 1%.

    Kalief Browder: accused of stealing a backpack at night by a person of Indian/Middle Eastern descent who had shoddy vision and was inconsistent whenever questioned. He was locked up in 2010 at Riker's Island, spent three years in holding without trial (3/4 of which was in solitary confinement), and was eventually released without restitution or acknowledgement of wrongful imprisonment. He developed schizophrenic characteristics, and roughly two years after his release, he took his own life. The paranoia and isolation drove him insane. He was 17 when he went in.
