Victims have rights? You wouldn't know it in the U.S. It seems that everything has swung towards giving the perpetrator rights so that we don't treat them bad (heaven forbid we should treat someone who has murdered, stolen, raped, etc. bad). That would be INHUMANE, according to the rules to which many activist judges have determined need to be adhered.
It is getting to be such that inmates even get to watch cable tv instead of sitting for hours with nothing to do. I can't afford cable, but they get it.
The only jail that has it going anywhere right is in Arizona where
Sheriff Joe Arpaio runs things. And yet he keeps coming under fire for supposedly violating the prisoners Constitutional rights. If all inmates were treated the way he does it there would be much fewer returning prisoners (his record on this is pretty clear that he has a fairly low recurrence rate because either the criminals stop doing the stuff or they move somewhere else where it is cushy to be in jail. So if all were like his, then there would be no place to escape to)
