Life in the US Women's Prison, where
In the United States in Phoenix, Arizona, there is a prison under the name Estrella. His very fame it acquired thanks to the fact that is the only in the United States, which for the rehabilitation of women prisoners using a program called punishment Chain Gang. Simply put, it involves the sharing of a black prisoner and unskilled work in the course of which they are chained to each other long chain.

In general, this system has a traditional southern US states in the 19th and the first half of the 20th century, and in 1955 abolished both inhumane and does not meet the spirit of the time. However, in 1995 it again began to be applied to the male contingent in some prisons south of the United States. And in the Estrella jail downtown Phoenix decided to go even further - to extend the system of such punishment on women for the simple reason that both women and men in the United States have equal rights and, therefore, no one should make any concessions.
But enough lyrical digressions - time to move on to the point. Under existing rules, this program is called "Last Chance" and can be assigned only to women prisoners, who are serving their punishment is not very serious articles (such as driving while intoxicated, false testimony, petty fraud and theft of goods in supermarkets), and a period no more than 1 year. To some it may seem surprising, but the snare penalty of one chain and public works free women prisoners choose for themselves purely voluntary manner. The reasons that encourage many American zechek make such a choice, very simple. In sentencing the courts, despite the relatively short time of his release, the majority of them are appointed by the rigors of punishment (something like punishment cells, to put it to the Russian style). This mode of punishment involves the compulsory wearing striped prison robes, bezvylazno finding prisoners in 2 - 4-bed cells for 23 hours a day and a meager 2 meals a day. The prisoner is also forbidden to have around salt, cigarettes, coffee, ketchup and mirrors, listen to music and watch TV (except for transmission of the weather and how to prepare delicious food), and for any trip to the nurse, they must pay $ 10, and seeing incoming to their family members meeting exclusively through the glass. The trick here is that after serving 30 days of voluntary Spent chain and free public works sentenced women receive special certificates and with it the right to resettlement in the overall camp with lighter regime further punishment.
In turn, the system itself Chain Gang involves the binding of a long chain of 5 arestantok and joint implementation of activities such as collection of waste on roadsides, mowing weeds on vacant lots (locally 40 - 45 degree heat) and dumping the bodies of homeless people in the city Cemetery. A main goal of such a system of punishment, according to the chief of the prison, is short-sighted thinking to train inmates for discipline and organization in their actions and for all counter the lure of ever again tolerate violations of his life.
