Honor System Earns Sanders Praise at State Penitentiary
Warden Sanders defends the honor system at the state penitentiary, arguing it is essential to reform inmates. He notes twenty five percent of prisoners might as well be outside the walls for escape risk, with seventy five percent denied parole and fourteen percent lifers. He calls inmates brothers in need of help and urges mercy, kindness, and firmness in handling them. The system, he says, reflects the best in humanity and underpins reform efforts.
