About Jail

Prisons are designed to keep in individuals, however the standards vary. For example, Supermax prisons keep prisoners in isolation and lock-down for twenty-three hours a day, receiving meals through small doors within doors. Minimal security prisons, however, may include a single security officer and a locked dormitory at night.
