The justice department has recently decided to close down private prison because of how unsafe they are. On Huffington Post it explained that private prisons were mostly used for inmates that had fewer then 7.5 years in jail, the jail was able to hold about 22,000 inmates. private jails had more conflicts then public such as cell phones getting confiscated eight times more then average, lockdowns, high number of gangs, and etc. The BOP, Federal Bureau of Prisons, has concluded that private prisons are run very poorly and mostly all have at least one safety or security deficiency.
