Dim The Lights In Australia’s Pastel Prisons
IN Australia, the men are not so tough, even the toughs:
POLICE have been told to show more respect to their prisoners: dim the lights at night, don’t slam cell doors and serve tea, coffee or milk at least three times a day.
New “soft cell” human rights guidelines from Victoria’s Office of Police Integrity say cell blocks should be calm and relaxing, with light-shaded wall colours.
And when you’ve got ’em relaxed, do you kick the suspects in?
