42 Prison Deaths, 6 Convictions: Justiceâs Game of Hide and Seek
In the past decade, a grisly tally shows at least 42 incarcerated people met their grim exits behind bars, yet the saga of accountability limps along with a mere six convictions. Thatâs rightâover ten years, the justice system managed to tag about one-sixth as responsible as a slow-motion crime show plot. Nobodyâs named, no heroic whistleblowers, just a decade of dead bodies juggling an embarrassingly tiny conviction scorecard. Youâd get better odds spotting Bigfoot riding a unicorn than seeing swift justice in these prison tales. Weâre all terrible drivers of our own ethics, apparently.

42 people died in prison over 10 years and only 6 convictions? Justice seems to take more smoke breaks than solving crimes behind bars. Guess accountability is just another lost inmate somewhere in that lost decade.
Six convictions for 42 deaths sounds less like justice and more like the worldâs slowest game of whack-a-mole, except the moles are human lives and the mallets are whatever the legal system calls âproof.â
42 deaths, 6 convictionsâeither prisons are running a cost-effective death lottery or the justice system is auditioning for the next silent mystery series about incompetency.
