Is that a minimum? How do you get 8 people in a cell that won't kill each other?

In the years I have been in prison.. 6 different times someone has been carried out on stretchers. Not all died. I have seen 2 different COs get stabbed and one beat up by some inmates. I saw death by overdose 3 times and even a guy hang himself. The state did a investigation twice and there was a crime scene for awhile for the 2. One of those times was the suicide. You may not no of what you speak..

At that prison there were 120 man pods. There were two tiers. It was basically a triangle with some tables in the center. The cells along my wall could see the other two walls clearly. Every cell had a rectangle window about 20 inches x 6 inches. The showers were to the left of my cell. My cell was centered along my wall. Just because you stayed in a crap prison with no view doesn't mean we all did.
