They get separated from the rest of the population because they are violent towards other inmates and/or staff.

Did you even read the post?

Quoting:
Over the past three decades, numerous state and federal prisons have made long-term solitary confinement a default management tool, subjecting prisoners to conditions of extreme isolation not as a response to violent behavior but rather as a routine practice for minor rule infractions, and for “their own protection.”

This is a horrible thing to do to another human, especially for minor infractions that do not involve violence.
