The best reform that can be instituted at Rikers would be a policy of immediate summary execution for any act of violence against the staff, and immediate solitary confinement in a cage outside for 1 year with nothing to eat but expired cat food and no toilet for any act of violence against another inmate. Crazy sh*t would stop right away.
Such overreaction. The inmates are locked up behind bars awaiting treatment and educational programs. Its very safe. They counsel the inmates to improve.
I'm glad it's bad and I hope it gets worse.
If they don't like Rikers Island why they commit crimesðŸ›Â🚽🚿📚🗠that's all you going to get in prison on Rikers IslandðŸšâ€
Deblasio turned the place into OZ he and his advocates should take those inmates and move them into their homes
11 deaths? There are prisons with 3x the images with fewer deaths.
People that come out of jail re offend and end up killing more ppl
The ppl at rikers should die if your that bad of a human its time to be put down
I worked there for 20 years and yes the horror is true.
Every time I hear a story about Rikers Island I get sad. Smh
Another Democrat run city
Check out # I WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN
All prisoners should be given one big shot of the best heroine …. And send them in to never never land……
they’ll never commit another crime , won’t have to complain about conditions and will cut down on the expensive upkeep
I’m confused 😕 What about the victims?ðŸ˜ÂNo pity for Violent Criminals.

Japanese people took to the streets of Tokyo to protest against marriage between Princess Mako and Kei Komuro due to all kind s of fraud s.
It's a prison people…
Hmmmm. Seems like there's a concentration camp within AOC's own district. I wonder why SHE never mentions it?
So if it’s so bad why is crime up ðŸ¤â€
Prison wasn't designed for the inmates to be treated like humans and depending on what crime you committed should depend on what kind of prison you get sent to! If you have killed someone or someone's if you have hurt a child or a woman you should be treated like the animal that you are! Drug offenders and petty crap you have a fighting chance to get better so you should be treated like a human
Unbelievable that this hole is still operating !
Prison isn’t about rehabilitation it’s about making an individual worse so that they come back in to the system once they get released
Welcome to the police state!
Only the criminals want reform. Not law abiding citizens
Compassion for criminals? No thanks, my compassion is only for the victims of those criminals.
Shout out to George Floyd on seventeen months of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals🖕..
I thought in this liberal State bail reform meaning u get arrested and there’s no bail u get out immediately.
Well..it's prison not Fantasy Island.
Only put the cold blooded pos in there. Minor crimes should not, including pre trial. Then start killing the ones that deserves it. That will bring down costs.
They just need more executions.
I done time, it doesnt suppose to be the holiday inn libturds
Should be handed over to the Federal Government and used as a Domestic Terrorist detention screening Center before shipment to Gitmo.
Change costs. Raise taxes to cover it.
Democrats will fix it just look around NEW YORK
Wait till after Trump goes there.
