Walnut Street Jail Janice Tighe Harrison College History of Criminal Justice Mr. Royer 10/17/11 As a Criminal Justice student it is important to know and understand some of the history of our Criminal Justice system. One aspect to know would be the history of our correctional system, in particular the Walnut Street Jail. Before the creation of the Walnut Street Jail life for prisoners was cruel and inhumane. As our text states “By the late eighteenth century, men, women, and children were till mixed together in many American jails.

What happened in Nazi concentration camps? - by NB Although nowadays the term “concentration” camp is regarded as synonymous to the Nazi-operated extermination camps during the Second World War, the term originated from British camps in South Africa during the Second Boer War. However, some historians, particularly Władysław Konopczyński, believe that the first concentration camps were established by the Russian Empire during the late 18th century Bar Confederation rebellion for Polish rebels awaiting deportation to Siberia. But despite popular misconception, even Nazi concentration camps were not necessarily death camps, although even in the relatively safer work camps, many prisoners were worked to death or killed if they refused to do so. The first Nazi concentration camp, Dachau, was opened on 22nd March 1933, and initially intended to hold only political prisoners and opponents of the Nazi regime, even then mainly without trial or any judicial process.
As a U.S. Department of Justice publication notes, “Their organization was so firmly entrenched before authorities understood the danger confronting them that control of the institution was seriously threatened (Seiter, p. 250). There were initially five major prison gangs which were known as the “Traditional Prison Gangs”. These gangs were initially formed to protect themselves from other inmates and predators. Through the years these gangs have went from self protection to now being known for their viciousness and violence to maintain power and control over other inmates. The Aryan Brotherhood (AB) originated in the San Quintin Prison in 1967.

The Rights Of Inmates Olanda Tyler Everest College Phoenix Introduction to Corrections CJC2000 Instructor: John Kuivila Saturday, March 1, 2014 The nature and extent of the privileges afforded to individuals kept in custody or confinement against their will because they have been convicted of performing an unlawful act. For most of U.S. history, the treatment of prisoners was left entirely to the discretion of prison administrators. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the federal courts began to oversee state prison systems and develop a body of law dealing with prisoners' rights. During the 1980s, however, a more conservative Supreme Court limited prisoners' rights, and, in the 1990s, Congress enacted laws that severely restricted litigation and post-conviction appeals by prisoners. Two statutes enacted during the 104th Congress have had a significant effect on the federal court's treatment of prisoners who seek to bring claims against prison officials.
Some of those larger gangs include, The Aryan Brotherhood, The Black Guerilla Family and The Mexican Mafia. These gangs account for a large portion of gang members currently incarcerated in the prison systems. The Aryan Brotherhood was created in the late 1960’s in the California prison system. The Aryan Brotherhood is also known as AB and The Brand. This particular gang is a white supremacy group originally created to help protect white prisoners from black and Mexican gangs.
