Chapters 7 summary

Today I read locked Up by Laura B. Edge pages 61-73 and it explained a lot about death row and changes America made to the prison system over decades and important periods of time. I didn’t really like reading this book.  I say this because since I don’t really like nonfiction and overall it was pretty boring.

Chapter 8
Today I read Locked up By Laura B Edge. This chapter was about how prisons treated their inmates when it comes to the death penalty and the pages were from 73 to 80 and still find this pretty boring and that is because I just don't like non fiction

Chapter 9

Today I read Locked up By Laura B. Edge Chapter 1

In this chapter, I read about the punishments and if they missed Sunday church they would get whipped. Also if they got in trouble they had to have a sign that says what their punishment was. I look forward reading more because I want to read more about the punishments.

Today I read Locked up By Laura B. Edge Chapter 2

In this chapter, I read about that they reduced of crimes against morality. An example is Sunday church and is no longer to be a crime. The death penalty was not quite used anymore. I look forward reading more because I wonder if they going to bring back death penalty more often.

Today I read Locked up By Laura B. Edge Chapter 3

In this chapter, I read about how the Civil War ended and all their crops got ruined and cities and even roads got destroyed by the war. Also, four million southern slaves were all of the sudden free.  I look forward reading more because I wonder what will happen to those for million southern slaves.

I read chapters 4-5 of the book locked up. Capter 4-I wonder why so many immigrants came. 1900-1920 people thought that people committed crime becauses of their genetic makeup. Progressive reformer think that crime are commited becasue the person is a pshchologically or emotionally sick. Reformers belived that stoping crime was in reach. Theyb thought if the U.S goverment sovle social problems crime would stop.I tjhink this is interesting

Chapter 9
Today I read Locked Up by Laura B.Edge from pages 80-88 This chapter talked about different ways prisons have tried to reform their prisoners so that their not back in prison in a few years. It also explains a lot about the alternatives to prison such as manual labor. This chapter was probably the most interesting of the 3 chapter I have read. I say this because it really explains a lot a subject which helps me understand it better.

Today I read chapter 3 pages 24 to 33. In the book, I learned. At the end of world war in 1865 crops were destroyed, cities were burned to the ground, and many roads and railroads no longer existed.Slums and ghettos filled with poor jobless people.As a crime, increased, so did anxiety and fear. As crime rate rose, prisons became overcrowded. Patrick Murphy, an Idaho prisoner in solitary confinement, wrote about his experience in prison: In the loneliness of that cell, with all the world seemingly against me, without even the sympathy of ‘cons’ like myself, who were shut out from everything worthwhile in life, was born a feeling of resentment against the whole scheme of life. My heart was teeming with hate, my soul was seared with revenge and perspiration of despair that trickled from my temples would have poisoned a rattlesnake. But crimes justice experts firmly believed in prisons for reforming criminals. They just needed to find a better system of prison management.In the lease system, private contractors hired inmates to work outside the prison.The death rate from disease and accidents was high.Brookway defines reformation as a process that turns convicts into useful citizens.The national prison congress adopted the declaration of principles. I don't think I'm going to like this book because i don't like books like this.

Today I read  Locked Up By Laura B. Edge. It talks about Levi Ames being a robber and he is sentenced to be hung. It also talks about what was considered a crime Like lying and swearing were crime then and they were punishable by being whipped. The stocks are when you get your arms and head locked in a piece of wood a people can throw things at you. A captain get the stocks after he kissed his wife it was stated that he had "Lewd and unseemly behavior". If you committed 3 crime you would die. You would wear a letter for your crime like drunkenness it would be a D. You could be branded for being a thief. Your punishment would be different on who you were or your status.

Chapter 5:
Today I read Locked up pages 44 to 50, the author is Laura B. Edge. I read about the great depression and how more and more people went to jail during that time. A reason why they went to jail a lot was because they did not have anything to do during the day because they did not have jobs. So most of the people started doing bad things and more and more people went to jail during that time.

Chapter 6

Today I read Locked Up y Laura B Edge, pages 51 to 60. When United states declared war during world war 2 they made the prisoners make different things to help out in the war. Many people tried to do as much as they could to help out while the was happening. During the war a lot of people went to jail and a lot of prison riots broke out.

Chapter 7

Today I read Locked Up y Laura B Edge, pages 61 to 70. During the vietnam war their was a lot of riots because of the draft and how people were getting mad. A lot of people started to go to colleges to enroll as a police officer to help stop all of the crime that was happening. Now they are trying experiments on the prisoners to test their behavior.

Today I read the book Locked Up by Laura B Edge. Pages 23-33. The chapter is called The Reform Movement. This chapter in the beginning talks about how at the end of the civil war the American South lay in ruins. All of the crops are destroyed, the cities are destroyed, and the rocks and the railroads didn’t even exist anymore. There was so much crime after the war ended because people had nowhere to live. The city's crime rate kept rising and it was going up and up everyday. Slaves were often arrested and thrown into jail and they were not mostly whites. The slaves wore a striped outfit so that if they tried to escape it would be easy to find them. The inmates at the jail got sentences. I feel like this chapter is kinda sad to me because of all of the sad things that they are putting in the chapter. When I started to read the first part of the chapter my heart kinda like dropped because it was sad that people didn’t have any homes after World War 2. I am looking forward to reading the next chapter.

Chapter 4: Today I read the book Locked Up by Laura B. Edge. Pages 35-41. In the beginning of this chapter it talks about how in the early 20th century the U.S cities grew larger and larger. They finally got back to normal after the war had ended. People had finally had houses now and there was now factories that have been put back to work. But the people that had worked in the factories worked but they didn’t get payed a lot they had worked for a low pay. There was barely anymore crime that was happening because the cities and towns has been reformed. In 1942 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against sterilizing criminals. Progressive People believe that people commit crimes because they are physically or emotionally sick. They also believed that if the United States solved the nation’s social problems that crime would totally disappear. Alcohol abuse led to many crimes. That is why I think that there should be a maximum amount of Alcohol aloud to be drunk at a time. People started a campaign on to ban alcohol and I kinda agree with them about that. And I also believe that when people are drinking and driving and the cops notice it, that the people that have been drinking should be put in jail for like a couple days. Also some of the inmates that are in jail have attacked other inmates and have also attacked their guards. The people that have done that should be in jail for even a longer time. I think that this chapter is interesting. I think that because of all of the interesting parts in the pages. I agree with most of the topics in this chapter because some of the things that they say should actually be true. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the book.

Chapter 1:
Today I read Locked up by Laura B. Edge, pages 7-14.
I read about different punishments and one was if they missed Sunday church they would get whipped.I also read about a man named Levi Ames admitting to robbery and was hung on October 21.Lots of crimes were punished by death. British criminals would be sent to America .Now many crimes are not punished by death, especially little things. The only time that the death penalty is used is when someone takes a life. I look forward to reading more in the next chapter.

Today I read Chapter 2 of locked up by Laura B. Edge.
This chapter was about reducing crimes against morality. So now if you miss Sunday church it isn't a crime and you won't get whipped. Now the death penalty isn't used as mush as it was back then. That is what I read for chapters 1&2.

Chapters 4,5, and 6
In chapter 4 it's talking about how in the progressive Era because of the poor living conditions and social environment caused crime. During the progressive Era, probation, parole, and indeterminate sentences became standard.In chapter 5 it starts off talking about the plan the progressive Era has to wipe out prostitution, drugs, and alcohol but it backfired. Gangsters? They were usually grown in the alleys and gutters of slum neighborhoods. Until the 1930s, all the states had dealt with crime at its borders. During prohibition, trying to control crime began to shift from a state problem to a national concern. In Chapter 6, in 1939 the German dictator Adolf Hitler invaded Poland. His goal was to take over the world. The US Government did not like Hitler but most Americans didn't want to send US troops over into a foreign war. Americans were full of patriotism at the time of the war. THe crime rate rose during the 1950s and the prison population grew. Prison riots became more common. The problems inside these prisons were the same problems that had plagued prisoners of earlier times.
