Adult Prison Parole
Here’s how an OLD
Conservative looks at it and that’s the MONEY spent on keeping prisoners in prison.
There’s also the Humanity of it all. At one time I had been informed that it
took to keep each prisoner in prison $25,000 a year, that would vary between
each state, and that doesn’t include emergency medical services like heart
surgery (heart transplant) or any kind of transplant. In the state of
We just can’t open the
Gates and say your all Free get the Hell out of here. That’s just not logical
although I believe it was
So how could we reduce
the prison population and still be safe and who could we trust. I have found
out in life that you can’t trust anyone period. But we can’t live a life such
as that. We would spend all out life pinned up in our homes and be afraid to go
out. So we have to have Trust, but not one-hundred percent. In other words, “In
GOD we trust, all others pay cash”.
Parole:
In some respects parole
is an incentive to stay out of trouble. The parole board looks at your record
over the years that you have been there before rendering a decision. Best have
it clean. It’s a good policy however, but, it can be improved a lot.
Monitoring Parole
Prisoners:
At the present time a
prisoner is monitored by an agent that the prisoner has to check back with by
an appointed time. There fore there are many agents that have to be hired the
cost of that must be Huge. What I suggest is that we monitor each prisoner by
satellite, having a monitor on each prisoner. The Monitor or chip, can either be
imbedded under the skin or bound as a bracelet around their leg. If they can
monitor kids that way why not prisoners.
Each prisoner would be
designated a certain area within a grid that he or she would be allowed to live
and work. A computer would monitor the prisoner by satellite. Does it sound
crazy?? If a satellite can monitor and find a car and then tell the driver
where he is, then it should be able to find any prisoner with a monitor on and
tell or print out where that prisoner is. If that prisoner is out side the
designated area then it would set off an alarm to alert the police. If the
prisoner were to some how discard the monitor by lock cutter or operation then
the satellite would
Inform the computer and
it would set off an alarm to the Police.
COST:
So what would be the
cost. Well in the first place this would have to have the approval of the
prisoner in writing. The prisoner would be responsible for the expense of the
program. For instance he would have to pay out maybe a hundred dollars a month
for having himself monitored. Also he should pay out an additional one hundred
dollars to be set aside in a bank. This extra hundred dollars would be used for
paying the expense of looking for that prisoner should he decide to violate his
parole. If he doesn’t try to escape then when his parole is over that money
should be returned to that person. Then there’s the cost of all those Parole
agents that wouldn’t be needed. The computer could be set up in a police
station to monitor. The computer would alarm the police if problems arise.
SO WHY THIS PROGRAM:
Right now there are those
prisoners that are being let out when parole time comes up and that’s O’K. They
are judged to be safe by the parole board. What I am talking about are those
prisoner that could be let out long before their time of release. A
Supreme Court Judge in
In General:
A monitoring program would
allow for a person to be housed in his home and to work for his up keep there
by cutting costs to the state and government. If he were to leave that grid
area that has been assigned to him the monitor being monitored by the satellite
would alarm the police and inform them of his last location. If the monitor
would be cut then the computer would advise the police as to where it was.
Summery:
Some where in this BEAST
of Government there must be a person of Wisdom that is interested and Humane
enough to get a program such as this started. However, it would be just the
first step in Prison Reform. Most Civilized countries don’t kill their
prisoners. I some times wonder what we are.
