    What fucks me up the most is that they're all pre-trial. Anyone in FTR could get accused of something and end up in that hellhole where the guards basically say "Yeah, there's rapes and stabbings, no there's nothing we can do about it".

    Out of interest wuf did you feel empathy towards the small guy? I both empathised with him for how fucked his situation was and admired his extremely steely inner strength. Regardless of what he's done, you have to respect his badassery in staying in the system for 3 years and not completely cracking up/ending in PC.

    I didn't watch the whole thing due to time and I just don't feel like being depressed anymore, but I did catch a bit with the guy you're referencing. I do feel bad for him, as I do with anybody regardless of what they've done. But a couple points: the guy is probably a sociopath and basically admitted to what he's been accused. Internet diagnosis be damned, I would bet a ton of money he's mentally unstable. But keep in mind, mental instability is a product of society, not genetic inheritance

    Also, his steely resolve is a product of the system. If you're a prison vet, you become a hardass or you die. So everybody there has been broken uncountable times, but the part of them presented on tape is their fighting back from the bottom persona
