Crime and Punishment

Crime does pay .... or at least if you are a Mexican prisoner.

All the Creature Comforts Available (for a price) In Mexican Jails

It appears that a surprise inspection in a prison in Acapulco Mexico,uncovered the fact that there were 19 prostitutes in the cells (more or less in residence), a 100 plasma televisions, two sacks of Marijuana, and over 100 cockerels for cock fighting. On top of this, it appeared that six female inmates were living in the male section of the prison along with two peacocks!
 
In July, prisoners in a jail in Sonora state were found to be running a lottery to raffle off a luxury cell they'd equipped with a fridge, DVD player and air conditioning. Its no wonder that Mexico is losing the fight against the drug cartels, when the prisons are just Rest & Recreation stations for those arrested. Crime doesn't pay in the long run  .... or at least if you are a British criminal, where a recent study suggests that a life of crime appears to damage offenders' health, but sadly only once they reach their late 40's. 
 
After that point they found that career offenders were more likely to be hospitalised, and were a whopping 13 times more likely to be disabled (or at least claiming to be disabled, which ain't the same thing). Also out of the total test group created in 1961 (aged eight or nine yr old white males), 17 of them had died, and 13 of those 17 had a criminal conviction.

Up until the age of forty, criminals actually appeared to have better health in their late teens and late 20's than those who had not offended when they were young .... must be the out door lifestyle!
