Prison Overcrowding Examined
(Phoenix, AZ)
Since Monday, the state legislature has been talking about finding a way to ease Arizona's prison overcrowding problem. Governor Napolitano has backed off her request for 700-million dollars to build new prisons, but she says the system still needs to add more than one thousand beds to the already existing prisons. My guest this morning is Kevin Pranis, a policy analyst with Justice Studies. He says the prison issue in Arizona is so dire that it seems to transcend traditional political boundaries, with law and order Republicans leading the way in sentencing reform that could ease prison congestion and alleviate the need for extra beds.
