It sounds like something that's endemic in the third world, but it's happening in the US. Just like the bail system in the US, where the rich walk free (even if they are guilty) until trial and can then flee prosecution but the poor must rot in jail, even if innocent. To add insult to injury, the rich get comfortable accomodations such as the use of a computer and iPod. Things have gone too far. This is just depressing. Just imagine if someday prisons were outsourced to India or Mexico and prisoners were sent there where the guards would be paid shit wages and the rich would have an even easier time bribing their way into luxury, while the poor would be eating rotten food. Do you think that is far away or far off? The fact that I brought it up means that someone else has probably already thought of it. I wouldn't be surprised. Just think of it.. American prisoners housed in Mexican jails just across the border in the frontera. Horrid conditions (unless you are rich). Yeah, it sounds way out there, but give it about 20 years.
