Emergency prisons told by Riccardo Iacona
"My Prisons", a journey through the sad reality of Italian prisons. The episode of "live" side by reading data terribly eloquent: 68,000 inmates in facilities across Italy (overload, although as many as 40 units built and never completed), 66 suicides in 2010. It then goes to touch the paradox of Poggioreale, a maxi-prison capacity by 1,400 inmates from dilated to almost double (about 2800 are expected this year "guests"). The law ensures the card 7 square meters available to each detainee, but the current average prison in Naples down to 2. Prevent overcrowding in the halls to apply the leisurely break of 4 hours per day, reduced to 2 hours to spend in narrow courts and no shelter from the weather. There are gyms, or playgrounds, you can not shower more than twice a week. A teacher only has to deal with 300-400 inmates, but only until the ninth hour (about ten half-hour talks about a day, compared to well above required).
only one meter and a half distance between the beds, just enough space to move. All testified directly by the Director , by the chaplain (the latter tells of prisoners only after 2 years in prison and come out like zombies are receiving treatment at mental health centers for 5-6 years), educators, parliamentarians from visiting from family of prisoners as young Iorio (arrested for possession of a dose of two grams of cocaine, took his own life after a few weeks, the inmates were warned of possible suicide, but no one intervened to prevent the tragic ending). The overall picture emerging from the survey of Riccardo Iacona is dramatic prison facilities turned into a landfill social with thousands of drug addicts and mentally ill that by law should be elsewhere, alternative measures reduced to a flicker and a lot of exasperation on the part of all those who have to reckon with this reality every day.
