prevention, treatment, cure...for PRISON

prevention...avoiding getting caught, legal defense, disrupt patrolling/policing.

treatment/palliative care...legal defense, bail fund, prisoner support

cure...c.o. disappearance, escapes, prison breakouts, prison destruction, prison abolition, state abolition

i dunno, just some things that sounded more interesting than the concluding questions of the prompt

plus also "the overflowing of prison into general society" (ankle bracelets, home arrests, etc) and "the erosion of the pretense of rehabilitation as an objective of imprisonment" which turns it back to punitive and deterrence (no longer the "penitence" rhetoric is espoused, so "penitentiary" is not so fitting any more)

also Angela Davis' and Massimo Pavarini's takes

roll with that
