Thank you.

I'm wondering how much better the situation might have been had some detention centres not been in such disrepair. I'm referring to confinement, the spread of COVID‑19 and the violation of solicitor-client privilege. Having practised some prison law, I have been to a few centres, and they were extremely dilapidated.

Would problems have been avoided had federal correctional facilities been given a little more TLC?
