    “Does one of our staff have to die before they put AC in there?”

    Telling that he doesn’t bother to ask that question if it’s a prisoner

      Because prisoners have already died it’s just able to be rugswept and denied. Texans and Americans in general don’t see convicted individuals as human that deserve empathy, look at how prison rape jokes are still pretty well tolerated versus similar type things that also were acceptable 10 years ago. That’s why he had to preface it with all the other shit about “tax paying” citizens and soccer dads etc.

      Eta: sorry if it sounds like I’m arguing against you I just meant to expand on it because all this pisses me off and needed to rant

    Is there a point where prisoners can file a class action suit for cruel and unusual punishment for being forced to be in this deadly heat?

      sorry to hear that. i did time for growing mushrooms in a humid non-ac prison. I can’t imagine with the heat getting worse how many wet bulb deaths we’re going to see.

        Thank you for responding. He is my husband and I’m a school principal. I never get pitty for him.
