But in the other sense, she has been treated better than most inmates. She got a private room, was given a buzzer to alert guards whenever she felt threatened, and was given very liberal use of the phone. If it was us in that prison, we'd be randomly thrown in with someone and the guards would laugh in our face if we told them we didn't like the food and couldn't sleep. We certainly wouldn't have been sent home for this.

But I wish she'd just shut the fuck up and serve her time. She acts like she's being thrown into some Turkish prison with a group of hungry bull-dykes. She's in solitary, gets 3 square meals, and doesn't have to deal with the shit most people in prison do. So pick up a book and read for a couple weeks. There are a lot of people in this world who are in shittier situations and dont' have a fucking nervous breakdown over it.
