does every state make their own uniforms? Do any buy from another state?
In order of the photographs, Georgia, Florida, Pennsylvania, Indiana, New York, Michigan, Texas, and South Carolina all make uniforms in their prison industries. There are more, of course, but this is a good sample.
Most don't buy from another state but rather commercial vendors. Many of the states however do sell to jails in their state!
Luzira Maximum Security Prison is a maximum security prison for both men and women in Uganda. Until Kitalya Maximum Security Prison opened in 2020, Luzira was the only maximum security prison in the country and housed Uganda's death-row inmates,[2][3] as well as political prisoners. (From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luzira_Maximum_Security_Prison)
Prisoner uniform colors:
yellow -- remand (awaiting trial) and short-term inmates
orange -- convicted and long-term prisoners
white - kitchen work
blue -- female & juvenile
Notice thet all prisoners have had their heads shaved.
Only awaiting trial and short-term inmates. All in yellow uniforms.
The prison on Google Maps,
The prison yard. I wonder what is going on here ? All those rectangular spots ?
The prison was designed with capacity of 1,700 inmates, but often houses close to 8,000.
