Terror in the Prisons: Homosexual Rape and Why Society Condones It by Carl Weiss by Carl Weiss, David James Friar
Requirements: .PDF reader, 8.43 MB
Overview: More men than women are raped every, year in America. They are raped in prison. Women, of course, are raped in prison too, but the proportion of female convicts to the total number ofinmates in our country is small. Rape is the extra punishment anyone sentenced to prison can expect. Little is done about it. The prison system, by all appearances, condones it, reflecting accurately the feeling usually expressed in the courts, among law enforcement officials, and in society at large. It is as though we felt that anyone found guilty of a crime and sentenced to prison deserves this additional torture of body and mind. At least, that is how we feel until we become the victims ourselves. In our age, it has grown increasingly difficult to predict whether a life free of wrongdoing will also be a free life, or whether any man might not one day find himself behind bars. Perhaps it is time now for all of us to give our desperately needed attention to the single largest problem in our prisons—a problem that, right up until the appearance of this book, has been their best kept secret.
