Out of the 2,580 or so days I spent there throughout my 19 years in federal custody, I saw countless men disintegrate in front of my eyes within hours of placement in segregation—not able to take the banging, not able to take the administration's way of dealing with them, or not able to take the lack of POs or chaplains or imams being able to get to these areas. Seeing the dangers of that state were devastating.
I can't speak for the women's side, but I'm speaking for the human side. These people lose themselves fast.
