"Every 15 days" happened in the 1990's. Today -- July 24th, PBS is premiering a movie about what happened in one of the small towns where the prisons were built.
Prison Town, USA highlights the tragedies suffered by both town residents and the prisoners. What's saddest about this story is that the U.S. has imprisoned more people than anywhere else around the world. Check your local listing for the exact time, and flip your TV set on to PBS. It's well worth watching.
Let us know what you think about America's failing criminal justice system, too.
