Jailhouse justice

Well, how about we ask Jeffrey Dahmer...

Whoops, scratch that idea he ain't very communicative these days.

One vile case that was highly publicized.

What about the rest? What about pedophiles? They seem to get released and added to sex offenders lists. Do they get beaten in prison?

Madoff got beat a few days ago.

Unfortunately, and it really is unfortunate, pedophiles are customarily segregated from the general prison population. Snitches too.

They...for the most part...are put into protective custody...and isolated from the general population.

it happens, ian huntley who was in protectve custody got his throat slit a few weeks back, and the yorkshire ripper got blinded

They are in jail. What more do you want?

Yes. That's why they are often segregated from the rest of the prison population.

What if they have been wrongly accused?

Father JohnGeoghan - Priest in sex abuse scandal
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Geoghan

"On August 23, 2003, while in protective custody at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley, Massachusetts, Geoghan was strangled and stomped to death in his cell by Joseph Druce, a self-described white supremacist and inmate serving a sentence of life without possibility of parole for killing a man who allegedly made a sexual pass after picking Druce up hitchhiking. An autopsy revealed the cause of death to be "ligature strangulation and blunt chest trauma." There have been questions raised about the wisdom and propriety of placing these two men in the same unit, since prison officials had been warned by another inmate that Druce had something planned.
A Worcester, Massachusetts jury found Druce guilty of first-degree murder on January 25, 2006, after the jury rejected his insanity defense. The next day, Druce was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for a second time.
A video, which shows guards trying to open the wedged shut prison door where the murder was occurring, was released on YouTube in June 2007. Officials don't know how the video, taken from jail surveillance systems, came to be publicly released."

Not permanently blinded - unfortunately.....

my brother spent 3 years in an ohio jail....... pedophiles, child killers and such are isolated from population because they will get beat or killed
