It seems to me that solitary confinement would be worse than death

I just don’t think living under those conditions is more humane.

My lifes very solitary already because of sz, i think i could survive solitary confinement.

You have little freedoms that a person in a prison cannot have.

There’s a guy named Steven Jay Russell, the movie I love you Phillip Morris was based on his life. Well, he was a serial prison escapee. I think he got locked up and escaped 4 times before they finally sentenced him to life in solitary confinement. He was originally charged with insurance fraud or some kind of financial crime, something he would have gotten a relatively short sentence for. He’s been locked up for over 22 years now in solitary.

That is just plain cruel. He’d probably freak out if he were free again.

I can’t even imagine.

Apparently he got approved for parole earlier this year.

Agreed. Solitary confinement is maddening. Death is just a quick way out. Some people deserve to actually suffer for their crimes. Solitary confinement is a good consequence for heinous crime.
