And I bet you a dime if you pull up their recidivism rates they are higher than the national average which is nearly 70%. Memphis, is the crime capital of TN, Penal Farm is 85%, this is a 11 month 29 day facility, serve rate is 30%. State last I tracked was 58% with blacks serving 6 months less time, serve rate unless you fight parole hearings is 30%.
Each state is different. As is each city. Those under total dem control are the worst.
