“In prison they are able to get their GED or college education. Did any of these people take that route?”

LOL, right. Prison must be the best place to learn. I mean, one must be so full of hope and cheer, when thrown into prison, wrongfully and for the long term.

Would sulking and feeling sorry for oneself make YOU feel better? Doing NOTHING to improve one’s self is hardly admirable no matter what the circumstance.

Being wrongfully thrown into prison would qualify as one of those things that can irreparably damage one’s self-esteem to an extent that all hope is lost, often permanently.

Getting a college degree would be the absolute last thing in one’s mind, when his entire life has been destroyed.

And what good does a college degree do a rapist? Should he teach in school? Work around the corner from a playground?

A college degree, even assuming one could be earned in prison, doesn't do a convicted rapist a whole lotta good.
