I'd suggest you watch the docu in the OP. Perhaps you're talking about these practices.
And, gradual change is better than no change, that's true at least.
I'm not saying the violence is sanctioned, but it obviously is a systemic problem and better training and more adequate housing/sectioning of different kinds of inmates would go a long way, imo.
Also, having more professional staff (psychologist, psychiatrists, social workers, ...) on hand probably wouldn't go amiss either.
...I have witnessed the worst of the abuses first hand , I don't need a biased documentary to tell me things I already know . There are literally thousands upon thousands of concerned professionals and volunteers in this country trying to address and rectify the problem and ignoring their efforts is an insult to their efforts . In a country as large and as populated as ours the problem is one of bureauracy and not one of indifference .
