Is Leavenworth as bad as San Quentin and other major prisons?
I would think with it being exclusively a military prison, the population would be considerably less unruly.
Sure it would. But, you don't think a bunch of former military (a large chunk of whom love their country and just did bad things) would take care of the problem? I know I would.
Leavenworth is actually pretty tame. But it's filled with military personnel. Military personnel sometimes lie, cheat, beat their wives. Sometimes they steal, sometimes they kill.
But at some point, they all swore an oath. Some of them break that oath. But many of them still believe in it.
I don't think he'd last a week.
