Solitary Confinement

In class earlier in the week, we read an article "Courtroom 302" and it was about the way that the men and woman being held in the Cook County Criminal Courthouse, were being treated by the police officers and other people working there. It was so degrading to read the nasty things that the police officers would say to them, like, "shut the f**k up". The funny thing is, that the people that are being held in the Cook County Criminal Courthouse, haven't even been proven guilty yet. In my opinion, that's not the way tom treat these people, because what if they are innocent? Another thing, there are far more worse inmates who have committed more severe crimes then the inmates in the Cook County Criminal Courthouse, who have committed drug crimes and other things along those lines. Just because they are being held until they post bind, they shouldn't be treated like a wild animal.
