Wait a second here - get convicted of a crime and get freebies from tax paying folks who are already paying for their housing/food/drink/education/appeals? What am I missing here? Next up, you'll be asking us to contribute to defense cases for child molesters.
ReplyDeleteGainer? Part of the 19th ward dynasty no doubt. I wonder if she is doing anything for the victims of the crimes committed by the incarcerated women.

"A naive nineteen year old widow becomes coarsened and cynical when she is sent to a woman's prison and is exposed to hardened criminals and sadistic guards."
