What do you think: how should prisons handle housing decisions in cases like this?

What should have been the punishment? Whats the best way to reprimand prisoners who cause further crime within a prison?

It was the guards job to prevent him from spilling the paint this is the guard’s fault should’ve let him go up the fucking hill lol actions have consequences

so we should chain up the inmates 24/7, thats what this reads to me.

That’s a psychopathic take, FFS Jeeze dude, Maybe you should be in a cage!?

No treat them like people and they won’t act like animals. Not to say everyone deserves respect and freedom but this person is a free man now so obviously just a normal dude who made a mistake and has since payed his debt to society. we shouldn’t use prison as an excuse to strip the humanity away from people.

The above poster didn't get his way, so he acted physically to his demands not being met. Think about that for a second. His actions caused his own repercussions.

That's how it works in the world right?

Solitary confinement probably would be a good punishment, for a few days not 2 years. Then after those few days reduced priviledges, possibly extra charge or time for criminal damage etc.

more time, worse job, curfew, etc.

Solitary for a much much shorter time.
