    Hilarious. But, probably won’t last that long in prison. Sex offender and all.

      It’s not how you think. For starters not many inmates will risk adding several more years to their sentence for assaulting a sex offender. Most people in prison want to go home. He’ll be fine as long as he keeps to himself or stays with other sex offenders. Also, before someone starts their fantasies, prison rape is not common. Prison Rape Elimination Act ended most of that. The type of sex offenders who do get assaulted in prison generally ask for it. Their specific offense plays a factor but its usually because they’re annoying as hell, keep pushing boundaries with other inmates, actually it’s mostly because they push boundaries.

        Depends on where you end up, too. There are a bare handful of prisons full of and geared towards rehabbing sex offenders, though none of those are where he’s going. And low security in general, sure, they’re apt to mostly ostracize them rather than risk extending their own sentence. High security, you’re gonna want to go into protective custody as quickly as possible or gamble on whether or not your skull is ventilated.

        Protective custody was where Masterson was being held back in June anyway while awaiting a verdict. I see no real reason he’d be moved out of it, so I’m sure he’ll mostly be bored.

        This REALLY varies. The majority of prisons do not tack on time for in prison fights. Unless they near kill or maim him, they’re fine whooping his ass and taking a week in the hole as that’s all they’ll get.

          I will have to disagree. When you are in prison you are in the custody of the state (state or federal). If the state just knowingly allows you to be at risk by placing you in a dangerous situation then they become liable. It would then become cruel and unusual punishment. No one is sentence to continuous assaults for decades. The prison can and will be sued and it could raise a constitutional issue. If prisons just allowed whatever to happen then PREA would not be a thing.

            As someone who was in prison, sex stuff is usually agreed to. Fights do happen a lot but it’s usually two people arguing or drug related. Punishments vary but it’s usually not good so people don’t want to fight unless they don’t care. People do care about extra time. Everyone stays quiet anyway. People lie all the time about why they’re in and unless you’re annoying or in people’s faces then you’re usually safe. A sex offender might get shunned or treated like shit but not all the time and they are usually separated into other sex offenders. There are also A LOT of sex offenders so they often have a place or section of their own. I saw a lot of jokes and minor threats about rape but never saw anything in person, dudes did do stuff here and there but it was voluntary. It’s not gay if you’re in prison is what was said. If it’s a high profile crime you might get some shit but you’ll probably be separated anyway.

            I mean you’re free to disagree but I was a state corrections officer for over 6 years. I’ve seen what happens.

        The rape elimination act ended most of that? Conservatively, between 1986 & 2006, as many as 1M inmates were documented to have been sexually assaulted.

        I think you’re projecting a bit on how you’d like to imagine prisons operate.

        PREA is mostly an information gathering mechanism.

          I’m not projecting anything. By law inmates cannot consent to sex so any sexual encounter is considered rape. This includes encounters between inmates and guards. Forced sexual encountered between inmates is not common anymore.

          Also I do not have any experience with higher level federal facilities like Mediums or High security but I assume they are more vigilant.

        They ask for it in prison? And that’s the only ones who get assaulted, or sexed… You know what this sounds like?

          What I mean by the phrase, “They ask for it” is that they do things and push boundaries with other inmates that lead to the assault.

          Example: I knew a guy who would always talk about his crime even after he was told to shut the fuck up about it. He was also proud of how he taught his young daughters how to give a bj. His cellies hated him, the cops hated him, most other sex offenders hated him because they wanted to move on and he wanted to stay back. He found his way into solitary.

        Not true at all. I won’t say it’s all Hollywood bullshit, but in most places not even the chomos are in danger.

      At best, Masterson would have to “pay rent” if he were in a regular prison, but honestly he’ll likely go to a rich white person prison where none of that applies. A prisoner would only get killed if he were a child molester.

            The big difference between this place and Reddit is I would have been called an idiot for not believing it at face value, and here someone just drops a link

                I’m browsing on Voyager, which looks a lot like Apollo, discussions branch out down to the right. On reddit the further down and right you went in any given thread it was always mudslinging and downvotes, here it seems to be a lot more people actually talking to each other

                  And then shock and surprise that people are actually talking to each other instead of just either mindlessly agreeing or purging a different opinion. Don’t folks know this is the internet, which is no place for actual discourse?

            How is this special (cushy) prison for rich and famous run by the federal govt justified? Do they try ?

          I assume they’re talking about white collar prisons which a sex offender would not be going to AFAIK. If they’re just talking about some secret rich white people prison where violent offenders go when they have money, there isn’t one. Rich people get off if their richness helps enough.
