(44,377 posts)The food is barely edible, the medical treatment is bare bones, "warm bed" isn't much of an issue in Florida prisons and I don't think there's a whole lot of AC there in the summer, and "activities" are...well, whatever.
You sound like he's being sent off to a spa resort.
It's prison. He won't leave the single property for the rest of his life. Won't take any vacations. Won't go to any restaurants. Won't be able to pick out his own clothes. Won't be able to drive a car anywhere. All the normal minor pleasures of life we take for granted, he won't get. Nothing.

Prison is a truly miserable life with very little freedom or enjoyment of life. Which is fine for the guys like Cruz who deserve it.
Less so for the poor people who through some misfortune don't.
