<h4><i>A woman shows the photographs of his son, died in the fire</i></h4>
<p>The  deliberate burning of a mattress from one of the inmates has emerged as  the most likely cause of the accident that claimed the lives of more  than 350 prisoners in jail in Comayagua Honduras. The  National Police has issued a list of 377 prisoners missing and  waiting for forensic evidence, it is assumed that most of them are dead,  although it is possible that some might have escaped the flames. Security Minister, Pompey Bonilla, provided the figure of 358 deaths. In the farm-criminal prisoners were crammed 852, when its capacity is 400 inmates.</p>
<p>The  fire chief of Comayagua, Leonel Silva, said the prison guards thought  the incident was brewing behind a massive flight and they made it  impossible for half an hour fighting the fire. &#8220;We arrived ten minutes later, but did not get because the guards stopped him. We waited about 30 minutes outside as we heard shots. Then let us enter. &#8221; The cells, he said &#8220;were secured with padlocks.&#8221; Police spokesman denies that there was obstruction to firefighters.</p>
<p>The guards claim that met the security protocols. The  ousted director of prisons, Danilo Orellana said that &#8220;the guards  thought at first that it was a mass escape of prisoners, so fulfilled  the law and not allow anyone entry to the prison to prevent unnecessary  deaths.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;People wanted to go through the gate, but no one opened. We  raised among all the sheets of the roof and jump through the roof and a  wall &#8220;, narrated Fabricio Contreras, who saved his life at the expense  of a broken ankle. &#8220;A  terrible scene &#8230; When we entered the cells, the bodies were charred  beyond recognition, and most&#8221;, said Daniela Ferrera, an official of the  Office. The president, Porfirio Lobo, has suspended the prison authorities and ordered an investigation.</p>
<p>In the morgue has begun the process of identification of bodies that retain fingerprints. But the task is difficult because many bodies are charred. The  convicts were burned to death and clutching the bars of their cells,  asphyxiated by smoke or drowned when thrown in water tanks of the  prison.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Since most punishment today is inflicted in the form of incarceration, it becomes difficult to claim that a punishment is cruel or unusual.  However, most inmates would choose a physical whipping over the psychological beating that America&#8217;s penal system inflicts daily on millions of Americans without a second thought.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>Throughout America&rsquo;s history, the Courts have been called upon to define what constitutes cruel and unusual punishment.&nbsp; The fact that we constitutionally prohibit this type of punishment, the eighth amendment, implies that our government officials have standards by which they must exercise their authority.&nbsp; Revenge is not the purpose of our legal system.&nbsp; We grant power to authorities for the sake of realizing a legitimate social objective.&nbsp; Humane punishment is well thought out and has a high probability of a successful outcome for the victim, community and offender.</p>
<p>Authorities responsible for punishing criminals will always claim to have good intentions.&nbsp; Severe punishments are often justified in the name of deterrence.&nbsp; Following that logic however, the more gruesome and vicious the punishment, the greater the benefit derived by the rest of society.&nbsp; The end justifies the means.&nbsp; The prohibition against whipping or burning people is a reflection that at a certain point, the punishment becomes degrading to those inflicting the punishment.&nbsp; Since most punishment today is inflicted in the form of incarceration, it becomes difficult to claim that a punishment is cruel or unusual.&nbsp; However, most inmates would choose a physical whipping over the psychological beating that America&rsquo;s penal system inflicts daily on millions of Americans without a second thought.</p>
<p>Nowhere is punishment through incarceration more repulsive than the practice of waiving juveniles into adult court even before they are found guilty.&nbsp; It is a fact that the potential rape of these juveniles is accepted by judges and politicians as part of the punishment.&nbsp; Yet, the same judges and politicians condemn church leaders as enablers for failing to turn over pedophile priests to authorities.&nbsp; Weren&rsquo;t they enabling the violent sex offender population by sending juveniles to cell up and shower with them in prison?&nbsp; Perhaps these judges viewed these children as rewards for good behavior.&nbsp; Disgusting!</p>
<p>Prison time is so banal in the public&rsquo;s perception that the amount of time someone is sentenced to serve, is accepted without question in most instances.&nbsp; There is a disconnect between what the public perceives as punishment, and what the reality is.&nbsp; This is what makes it a punishment so ripe for abuse, especially when it comes to the length of the sentence.&nbsp; Critics are easily dismissed as soft on crime.</p>
<p>Who benefits from our current system?&nbsp; If the result of the system is more crime, it actually works to the benefit of those responsible for punishing criminals.&nbsp; High recidivism rates lead to calls for more power to punish.&nbsp; The public, angered by crime, quickly acquiesces.&nbsp; Judges and prosecutors are then encouraged to use these resources in their entirety.&nbsp; This is where justice is politicized and legitimate authority ceases to exist.</p>
<p>Why didn&rsquo;t the parole system work?&nbsp; Funny that nobody asked that question before passing &ldquo;Truth in Sentencing.&rdquo;&nbsp; When someone is put in prison, the government has complete control over their life.&nbsp; To successfully reintegrate that person into society at some point, there has to be a plan of what is to be done with that person from A to Z.&nbsp; Under parole, and all subsequent sentencing schemes, the convict was given their time and it was up to them what to do with it.&nbsp; Part of that is a result of sentences being so excessive that there is no meaningful way to serve time once they&rsquo;ve completed all their educational and program needs.&nbsp; For example, once they complete a vocational degree, their skills steadily deteriorate as they await release.</p>
<p>When prisoners see the parole board, they are expected to have a parole plan.&nbsp; That&rsquo;s nice, but how realistic is that for someone who has been in prison twenty years or more and has never been on the Internet or learned how to drive?&nbsp; If the government was truly interested in a successful outcome, the parole plan would have been a work in progress from day one.&nbsp; Their judge would have sentenced them with the intent of fulfilling this plan.&nbsp; Then the social worker&rsquo;s main priority would be to help make it workable.&nbsp; All inmates have social workers.&nbsp; What could possibly be more important than helping the inmate successfully reintegrate into society?&nbsp; For the state not to accept responsibility from A to Z is not just cruel to the inmate who will have less of a chance to succeed as a result of their incarceration, but to the community who will again be victimized by that failure.</p>
<p>The parole board is not only appointed by the Governor, but is also part of the Department of Corrections.&nbsp; Corrections is a multi billion dollar industry that has one objective, profit.&nbsp; That&rsquo;s why Corrections has no interest in helping inmates create or realize a parole plan. The objective is to deny each inmate parole as many times as possible.&nbsp; Continuously reviewing these inmates for parole, and keeping prisons packed to maintain funding, provides for a lot of jobs.&nbsp; When those who work in Corrections hear about a crime, the usual response is, &ldquo;Job security!&rdquo;&nbsp; Crime pays.&nbsp; &ldquo;Truth in Sentencing&rdquo; eliminated the pageantry of the parole system.</p>
<p>In Wisconsin, they&rsquo;ve recently discussed passing a bill that would allow employers to discriminate against convicted felons.&nbsp; Yes, let&rsquo;s make sure criminals don&rsquo;t get a job, that&rsquo;ll help our economy and crime rates.&nbsp; While the tough on crime cabal is not usually so overt, the same mentality that encourages permanent failure is behind the rest of the policies that currently govern our entire justice system.</p>
<p>A politicized legal system is cruel and unusual because justice is monetized.&nbsp; The winners in most states are the rural districts that receive billions to house America&rsquo;s prison population.&nbsp; The losers are the urban areas that most inmates return to, more dysfunctional than when they went into prison.&nbsp; The ability of these urban communities to ever turn things around is compromised by the lack of funding resulting from the state having to expend so much on mass incarceration.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[As state's budgets tighten, Correctional Institutions will be taken over by private  sector, for-profit prisons.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>States with budget problems will be looking to downsize their Corrections&rsquo; budgets.&nbsp; There are two different ways this can happen.&nbsp; The direction things seem to be going in is that cuts will be made by providing less pay and benefits to staff.&nbsp; This process has been in the making for years, and the result will determine whether working in Corrections is a profession, or just another job.&nbsp; While it looks as though all the dominoes are set to fall, those in Corrections still have a chance to influence the outcome.</p>
<p>To do so, past errors must be recognized and delusions must be cast aside.&nbsp; Corrections&rsquo; unions made a huge error supporting passage of laws like Truth in Sentencing, and the overall politicization of our legal system by politicians.&nbsp; The thinking was that more inmates meant more prisons and more jobs, which meant a bigger union and more power.&nbsp; If the economy grew forever that might have worked, but bubbles pop.&nbsp; Corrections&rsquo; size now makes it a bigger target for budget cuts.</p>
<p>Politicians will continue boasting how they will make inmates serve all their time, under Truth in Sentencing, without mentioning who will pay for it.&nbsp; Corrections&rsquo; employees will see their salaries, pensions, and health care raided continuously to maintain these tough on crime policies.&nbsp; Supporting these political agendas conflicts with one of the main purposes of Corrections, rehabilitation.&nbsp; If you go along with the lock them up and throw away the key mentality, then warehousing inmates becomes accepted prison policy.&nbsp; If it doesn&rsquo;t matter how inmates do their time, then it doesn&rsquo;t matter who staffs prisons.&nbsp; That&rsquo;s where private prisons step in and devalue the Corrections profession.</p>
<p>The delusion is in thinking there&rsquo;s a way out of this without Correctional employees feeling some pain.&nbsp; In Wisconsin, there&rsquo;s a lot of hope in a recall that will bring in a Democratic Governor to save public sector workers.&nbsp; In any state where Democrats regain control, restoring funding to education will be the priority.&nbsp; Where will they get the money, especially if the economy worsens?&nbsp; Corrections could end up being a political hot potato that gets tossed back and forth between which political party will do less damage.&nbsp; Change is coming.&nbsp; Will Corrections&rsquo; employees try to resist it, or help direct it?</p>
<p>The alternative to devaluing the workers is reforming our justice system.&nbsp; Corrections cannot play a productive role in our justice system without adequate staffing.&nbsp; Would you expect the legislature or judiciary to function without valuing those jobs?&nbsp; If we believe in Corrections as a tool in promoting the goal of rehabilitation, we have to have a legal system that supports that.</p>
<p>We undermined our Correctional system by politicizing the law.&nbsp; Corrections&rsquo; employees didn&rsquo;t realize they were trading in the quality of their jobs for a greater quantity.&nbsp; Will they be willing to push in the other direction?&nbsp; In Ohio, on December 31, Lake Erie Correctional will be taken over by CCA.&nbsp; Louisiana just tried to sell three state prisons to CCA, and fell one vote shy.&nbsp; As budgets tighten, this will be a national trend.&nbsp; If Corrections&rsquo; employees wait on the political process to play out, they&rsquo;ll lose more than if they put forth a viable way to reform and got one of the political parties to accept it.</p>
<p>Finding a consensus on how to reform is a big issue that will be very difficult. It would be like football players trying to agree on how to keep fans out of the stadium.&nbsp; It seems a little counter productive.&nbsp; The problem is that human nature doesn&rsquo;t always provide the correct response.&nbsp; Sometimes, the best advice is that which you don&rsquo;t want to hear.&nbsp; For Corrections&rsquo; employees, there are two bad options.&nbsp; However, avoiding the challenges ahead will not make them go away.&nbsp; As important a role as Corrections plays in our legal system, I think it&rsquo;s about time their voice be heard in directing policy.</p></p>

My name&rsquo;s Cass.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong><i>(Narrating</i>) As ya can tell, my life hasn&rsquo;t exactly been plain sailing. Being the only black boy in my home town of Slade Green, I experienced racism day after day. In fact I was beaten constantly, sometimes by random passers-by. My <i>real </i>parents threw me into care just weeks after I was born. Even to this day I do not know who they are, or their reasons for abandoning me. But, Doll Chambers bless her heart and her husband Cecil, decided to foster me, a black baby from Dr Barnado&rsquo;s orphanage.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong><i>(Narrating) </i>It was at the age of ten when I started suffering the full consequences of being the only black boy in the Slade Green. I only had one wish, and that was to look like everyone else. Every morning, I awoke, dreading another day at school. The violence started as soon as I stepped out the house. The lady I called Mum, Doll, would make me my favourite breakfast, but I always left it lying on the table. I had to make sure I was early so I could escape the brutal beating from the boys who would wait for me on the bridge.</p>
<p>(Sound of knife and folks clattering)</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers: </strong>Come on son, you&rsquo;re gonna&rsquo; be late again! Come eat ya breakie?</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>I ain&rsquo;t hungry.</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers:</strong> You&rsquo;re never hungry in the morning. I do worry about you son.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant</strong>: I&rsquo;ll be late, I&rsquo;ve got to go.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: (</strong>Narrating) However, I wasn&rsquo;t always that lucky; more often than not they would be there, waiting. It came part of my daily routine.&nbsp; The bullying wasn&rsquo;t just because of my skin colour. There was a problem with my name as well. I was given the name Carol when I was at Dr Barnado&rsquo;s. That was another reason why I was tormented daily. Imagine if you were growing up on the outskirts of London with the name Carol! Then, one day, I found myself watching a boxing match, Cassius Clay vs. Henry Cooper. Clay was the best fighter I had ever seen. That&rsquo;s how I adopted the name Cass.</p>
<p>(Sound of bath filling up)</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers: </strong>Violence isn&rsquo;t going to get you anywhere Carol.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Stop f**king calling me Carol!</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers:</strong> (Angrily) Don&rsquo;t you dare talk to your mother like that!</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>It&rsquo;s a girl&rsquo;s name! Why can&rsquo;t you call me Cass? That&rsquo;s what my mates call me.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant:</strong> (Narrating) And that&rsquo;s how it happened. At the age of 16, my old man, Cecil decided to take me to see his beloved football team, West Ham. His pre-match rituals involved a double helping of cash (pie and mash), and a few pints in the Boleyn pub in Upton Park. I remember it like it was yesterday. From outside, I could hear the wonderful noise of West Ham fans in full voice. However, as soon as I walked in the pub, everything changed.</p>
<p>(Football chants followed by an awkward silence)</p>
<p><strong>West Ham Fan: </strong>Who the hell is this Pat Boom (Coon) that you&rsquo;ve brought into the pub?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil:</strong> Easy mate, he&rsquo;s just a kid.</p>
<p><strong>West Ham Fan: </strong>(Rudely)<strong> </strong>Country&rsquo;s gone to pot if you ask me.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil: </strong>Don&rsquo;t worry son, ignore him.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant:</strong> (Narrating) The whole place went quiet. I could feel everyone&rsquo;s eyes staring at me, almost like I was an alien. But no matter how bad it got, my Dad was always there to pat me on the back and reassure me I would be alright.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant:</strong> (Narrating) Two years later, I returned to Upton Park to see West Ham with a couple of mates. Wolverhampton Wanderers at home. A 3-3 draw meant both teams had to take a share of the points. We were walking back to the train station after the match, when we decided to take a short cut down a back road. In the distance we could see a blur of figures accompanied by the noise of intimidating chants. We walked a little closer, and discovered the Wolverhampton fans had bumped into West ham after the game. I promised my Mum I would not get in any more trouble, and walked off in the opposite direction. We turned the corner, and saw another group of men, who looked familiar.</p>
<p><strong>Hooligan 1</strong>: Oi are you Wolves scum?</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>No no, look at our shirts! We&rsquo;re West Ham. They&#8217;ve brought a proper naughty firm mate.</p>
<p><strong>Hooligan 2: </strong>In that case follow us or p*ss off home!</p>
<p><a target="_blank"></a>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) I knew I shouldn&#8217;t have followed them, but never being able to walk away from a good scrap, I did. This was the moment that changed my whole life.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Now, I had been in fights before, but this was different.&nbsp; You could feel the pure hatred in the air. Grown men determined to prove a point to the opposition through violence. However, after the violence had finished, members of West Ham United&rsquo;s hooligan firm, the ICF, shook my hand. For the first time in my life I felt accepted. It was the months and years that followed that my life was completely transformed. I no longer experienced constant racist abuse. I had earned respect. In fact I became the leading figure in West Ham&#8217;s hooligan firm who travelled around the country visiting football grounds. Unfortunately it wasn&#8217;t the game that we remembered. All we remembered was our weekly fix of football violence that every &#8216;ooligan lived for.</p>
<p>(Sound of cameras taking pictures)</p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Margaret Thatcher: </strong>I wish we could get those responsible, and give them stiff sentences to prevent anyone else from ruining the wonderful game.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Then Thatcher came into office. She promised to crack down on football hooliganism. She wanted to put an end to our &#8216;little games&#8217;. It was only weeks after that I found myself making one of the biggest jaffa&rsquo;s [cake] (mistakes) I have ever made in my life.&nbsp; Me and the ICF boys didn&#8217;t think we were getting enough recognition for the &#8216;work&#8217; we was doing at the weekend. We completely forgot that what we were doing was actually illegal. We agreed to appear on national television to talk about football hooliganism. Even though we remained nameless, our faces were being beamed into every living room in England. It wasn&rsquo;t until I arrived home that night, I realised how much of a mug I had been.</p>
<p>(Sound of key unlocking door)</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Alright Mum, did you see me on the Television?</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers: </strong>Yes I did! The whole of England did! What was you thinking!</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Give me a break mum, I got paid good bee&rsquo;s (money) for that!</p>
<p><strong>Doll Chambers:</strong> You&#8217;ve gotta break out of this stupid habit or you&#8217;ll be locked up Cass!</p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Then came the big one, Leeds United Away. This was the game that would separate the men from the kids. The perfect opportunity to prove to the footballing world that we were the top firm in England. Me and the boys met outside the pub to prepare for the fight of our lives&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>This is the one lads. No going back now. We go for the top boys first, and the rest will crumble. This has got to be clean, and quick. If anyone of us gets caught, we all go down.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong><i>(Narrating) </i>Old Bill somehow knew about our plans. They were waiting for us after the attack. Being six foot, and the only black man in the firm, it wasn&rsquo;t hard for them to find me. I was arrested, and sentenced to 4 years,</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Anyone who says they liked prison is lying. It was terrifying, even for me.&nbsp; I had a lot of free time to think about what I had done. I decided to write an autobiography to keep my brain active. I always fancied myself as an author in school.&nbsp; On my day of release, I returned to the main office to receive my belongings. I had 6 notepads in my hand which I had used to write my autobiography. Like everything in my life, taking the books out of the prison would not be as easy as I first thought.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Cass Pennant&hellip;</p>
<p><strong>Police Attendant:</strong> Here you go, Carol Pennant. Excuse me, what&rsquo;s that you&rsquo;ve got there?</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Just a few things I&rsquo;ve just been writing</p>
<p><strong>Police Attendant: </strong>Prison rules state you cannot take anything out of here that you did not have when you entered</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Come on mate, that&rsquo;s my future.</p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Police Attendant:</strong> What future is there for a pathetic football hooligan like you?</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Luckily for me, someone from the prison read what I had written, and managed to get the books back to me. I hoped to try to publish them in the future. I decided my days in the ICF were over, and managed to get a job as a bouncer at a local club. I met a girl, Elaine, who later became my wife. We even had a child together. However, my past as a football &#8216;ooligan never seemed to disappear. I had made many enemies in my time, who wanted revenge. When word got around that I was working as a bouncer I was literally a sitting duck. On a cold November night, my life took another dramatic turn&hellip;</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>Alright lads, we expecting another full house here then?</p>
<p><strong>Bouncer 1</strong>: Cass, behind you!</p>
<p><strong>Arsenal Hooligan:</strong> Oi! black West Ham b*stard! (Sound of three gunshots)</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) Shot three times in the chest. The doctors said I should &#8216;ave&nbsp; been brown bread (dead) but I believe the love from my wife Elaine helped me to pull through. The shooting hadn&rsquo;t just affected me physically. I suffered many mental problems. I continuously had visions of my attacker pointing a gun at me. It was driving me insane. I had to do something about it and when one of my old mates phoned me to tell me he knew who my attacker was, something inside made me wanna kill him to put an end to the torture.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) I had tracked my attacker, an Arsenal fan down to a pub in North London. I had got hold of a gun, and made the short journey from the East End. I entered the pub and immediately recognized my target. The boys followed me in, all armed with weapons. I pointed the gun at the mug&#8217;s head&hellip;</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>You alright mate? You look a bit scared.</p>
<p><strong>Arsenal Hooligan: </strong>Please Cass, kill me and you&rsquo;ll be straight back in prison again!</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant:</strong> Get on your knees and beg.</p>
<p><strong>West Ham Hooligan: </strong>What you waiting for Cass, take the pr*cks head off!</p>
<p><strong>Arsenal Hooligan: </strong>Please Cass, Please!</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating) But I didn&rsquo;t pull the trigger. Standing in that pub made me realise that all the sh*t I&rsquo;d been through was caused by me. I wanted to see my child grow up. I felt like I was responsible to guide him on the right path in life, like my mother had tried to do with me. I&#8217;ve spent my spare time finishing my autobiography which I released in 2002. I&rsquo;ve also published many other books as well as setting up my own publishing company.</p>
<p><strong>Cass Pennant: </strong>(Narrating)<strong> </strong>In my life, I had experienced more violence than you would ever want in one thousand lifetimes. I had been beaten, stabbed and shot, but I handed out my fair share as well. I have learnt there are better things to enjoy in life rather than kicking someone&rsquo;s loaf&#8217;a bread (head) in over a football match. This has been the story of a reformed hooligan, me, <i>Carol</i> Pennant.</p></p>
