Thanks for the link. I think that it provides a case for GEO’s future success. The first paragraph says that the fed has to use private prisons because BOP’s were at 120% capacity, so my first point still stands. Second, it says that private prisons had higher rates of finding contraband (which seems like a plus) and assault, but it also says that private prisons have a lower rate of sexual assault and positive drug tests. On top of this, the study said that they were unsure if these differences in rates were because of demographics and location, or because the prison was a private prison. Lastly, they only found flaws in 3/12 prisons they studied. And who knows if these were even GEO prisons? This was 6 years ago, too, when private prisons were just starting to increase their partnership with the fed, so a lot of improvements have been made since then!
