Hard Time S04 E06: Revolving Door

Around 80,000 offenders per year pass through the prison machinery of the Clark County Detention Center in Los Angeles. For many, being in jail is so dissuasive that they never commit a crime again after being released. Others turn out to be repeat offenders: drug addicts in particular repeatedly exceed the limits of legality. Hard Time Season 4 Episode 6 documents how addiction has it under control behind bars.

  1. America throws criminals, mentally ill people and drug users in the same place. And everybody is worse off. SAD!
    Anyway, thanks for the uploads. Always great.

  2. You can find inmate pen pal profiles online…please think on our brothers in prison. You can put money on their books too so they can buy a pack of cookies. Something so small for us means a lot for them when your living the rest of your life in a bathroom.

  3. Substance abuse disorder is incredibly difficult to beat. All of the reasons a person starts using just sit there waiting to rear their ugly head when a person is sober, yet they have no coping strategies to effectively process or manage that pain, be it emotion, physical or a combination of both. When people around, even those in a corollary capacity, have zero empathy; talking down to the person living with SUD, humiliating them and refusing to recognize their humanity, it becomes much harder. The officer working directly with Billy was really great: compassionate, yet realistic. That said, would we ever say to a person having a heart attack or seizure: "you should have chosen not to be sick today; not to have a heart attack/seizure?" No, because they're illnesses, as is Substance abuse disorder. Those living with SUD are very likely to fall down more than once before finding their feet. Why are we jailing them so quickly in this process instead of helping them in a treatment setting (provided they are not violent or committing major crimes while under the influence)? If they're already a ways down the path to recovery, one step backwards seem cheaper and more effective than sticking them back in the revolving door of prison and making them start at square one again.

  4. There is a specific way that old school addicts talk and explain things, I'm realizing this the more I listen to this guy and every old crusty bastard I know

  5. I feel compassion for this guy .iwas there too.but the way police is dealing with it is obnoxious. The solution is the problem. Stop punishing and add ict.

  6. Jail the man for addicted.. What a waste of tax dollars.. Self righteous government.. Jail him for crime. Violence murderous lifestyle

  7. How they treat people there….disgusting!!!!! And it dont help at all to throw this people in jail….they are Addicts and some mental.ill! The staff is not competent to handle that as i see….! When i read some comments ….no idea what addiction is about, just full of themselfs! Sorry but it is true! As a medical professional from Europe this is hard to see! Just judging is the easy way!

  8. "Getting High" mess up the brains… cant think, speak and behave right
    Cant these druggies get it?
    Waste $ on drugs… and played out by the same stuff druggies thought "save them" … drugs
    And we get old, priscillia.. 24yo isnt a "little girl".. 😒
