You are (perhaps falsely, perhaps truthfully) accused of a crime and thrown in jail. Now. Which villain do you fuck

.... You think you can do that? You're sadly mistaken. I suggest you research tartarus more.

Layers of Time - 2015

This maximum security prison opened in 1957 and was operational until 2003.  The prison sat vacant and unmaintained for 12 years, allowing water and weather to slowly degrade the former jail.  This photo is a great example of how far gone this prison was before it was inevitably demolished in 2015.

More than 650,000 prisoners are released every year in the U.S., but no federal agency tracks the unemployment rate for this population. Experts say low reading and technological literacy, as well as reluctance among employers to hire former convicts, means many drop out of the labor force altogether.

But there are a handful of novel initiatives trying to turn that narrative around, by bringing college education and professional training, and even entrepreneurship programs behind bars. Advocates of such programs say by teaching inmates at a higher level, they reduce financial and social costs to society.

One that gets a lot of attention is the Bard Prison Initiative.
