Its sad that you think that concept is funny. |
I've got two kids and I thought it was "funny" in a "that's so fucked up it probably happens" context.
As in "it wouldn't surprise me".
Think about it. They teach these prisoners how to use computers and the Internet and they're basically teaching them how to steal our identities and initiate credit card (as well as telephone) fraud.
I can see some "let's put these prisoners to work!" state requiring prisoners to work, and then after a lot of liberal hand-wringing have them stop digging ditches and start answering letters to Santa.
And then enter the unintended consequences. They get out, they know your kid's name, approx. address, likes/dislikes, etc.
I can absolutely see it happening. Somewhere....
