Gaming for Good Behavior

Posted Mar 16, 2006 at 1:54PM EST by QJ Staff

Gaming for Good Behavior Salem Oregon prison's population has jumped from 12,000 to more than 13,000 yet over the past 3 years the in prison violence has decreased slightly. Could this be because of the incentive programs the prison implemented. After 18 months of good behavior inmates are allowed to purchase video game consoles for $35 with 50 pre-loaded games. Although we might not agree with this idea of punishment it seems to be keeping the inmates occupied and out of trouble.

salem? thats here in oregon... i could go down there and LAN with the killers..

though i'd probably let them win at Halo. dont want them to get pissed and come find me when they get out.

(*for $35 its probably like a PS1 or a N64 or something.)

the way it says preloaded games, im guessing there those cheap ones that you plug into a tv and you can play pong and space invaders.
