In the USA over the last 25 years, the prison population has increased four-fold. There are now more than 2 million inmates in US prisons, many of them serving long sentences with scant opportunity for parole. These mandatory sentences are the result of a nationwide get tough attitude. Spending a life in prison can also mean experiencing death behind bars, and both prisoners and prison service staff are having to learn how to deal with this. Angola penitentiary in Louisiana used to be one of the most violent prisons in US. But today it’s a place where prison administrators and inmates work together to provide a measure of dignity to both the dying and those they leave behind.
