Do you expect people should like prison? Prison would not be much of a deterrent if it didn't get 1 star from just about everyone in terms of the experience. In terms of dealing with actual abuse of prisoners, the courts are a far more robust system for dealing with complaints.

The US has a brutal prison system where prison rape and sexual assault is routine.

The US also has a huge prison population and recidivism is high, so the brutality of the system doesn't seem to work much as a deterrent.

How do yelp reviews address this problem?
