Notable corrections items

Because I cannot even keep up with all the sentencing developments, I do not often focus on issues in corrections.  But a few recent items in major papers seem to merit mention:

• From the New York Times, Adam Liptak has this fascinating and sad article entitled, " Pregnant Inmates Often Shackled During Labor."

• From the Boston Globe, David Pozen has this interesting op-ed which advocates forcefully for "using private nonprofit organizations to manage prisons."
