Prisoners are supposed to stay in prison away from the public to serve their terms as a correction process for their crimes against the society. Prisoner partition sometimes fails to hold them in when they decide to break out to go back to the lifestyles they had been used to in the outside world. Others get this crazy idea immediately they are arrested, being taken to jail or when their judgment has been passed and they are on their way to prison, they decide to escape from the transport vehicle.
Even the most peaceful and calmest person develops irrational behavior when held in a confined place and that is why prisoners think of escaping and becoming fugitives instead of waiting for their term to be over and become free citizens again. Escape is not the only challenge in prisons; fatal fights and suicides happen within the cells as well. Most of the weapons used to carry out these in-prison crimes are improvised from within the prison.
Partitions which are made with utmost safety measures are safe for suicidal prisoners because anything that can be improvised to use a suicide tool is avoided in the making process. Many forms of suicide use sharp objects to cut one's arms so as to bleed to death, therefore anything that can be used to make cuts is not included. This may mean spending more on the construction of the partitions, but what's more expensive between a person's life and spending more money?
Crucial safety measures, such as automated lockdown of partitions, should be available. It is almost impossible to have large numbers of prisoners in same facility and expect not to have chaos within that facility once in a while. Without lockdown systems, these people can easily overpower the security personnel in the facility and escape.
The age old way of escaping from prisons is still in use. Prisoners do this by digging through the prison walls to find their way out. This is only possible if the materials used to make the walls are not strong enough or have structural flaws. Partitions should be tested for any flaws and strength before they start being used by prisoners.
Good partitions come with complete inbuilt beds and washrooms for the prisoners. This reduces the fights which usually occur in common washrooms in prisons leading to some prisoners injured and others dead. Prisoners causing trouble in the facility can be completely isolated from the others within their partitions.
Transfer of prisoners from one prison to another is a norm that happens daily. Most of the escapes, however, happen during this routine practices, comprising of high percentage of the 309 escapes on average annually. The partitions used in the transport vehicles are responsible for this and should be improved to minimize if not completely end this trend.
The government has to protect the lives of the officers involved in keeping prisoners in prison by creating safe prison partitions. During escape, prisoners will kill or injure any officer who tries to stop them. The stress the officers have already should not be worsened by fears of prison breaks.
