OCALA, Fla.—Yvonne McBride was a physically healthy 26-year-old when she entered Lowell Correctional Institution for women on June 20, 2013.

The Florida Department of Corrections noted in its exam of McBride that, other than a bout of constipation and a history of depression, she was in good health. She had no fever, no cough, no chest pain or breathing problems. Her lungs and chest were clear, her heart was normal, her prison medical records show.

But a month and four days later, McBride was dead.

I just cannot muster any sympathy for criminals here. :sosad:

If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

...hmm I for one think that our entire prison system needs to be revamped.  This is the first time that I have heard of problems with female prisons in Florida.

I agree, prisoners shouldn't have a cake walk or reside in luxury while incarcerated and granted some of them have committed some pretty brutal crimes; those inmates should be put in a separate facility from those who have committed less 'intense' crimes. There have been numerous reports in Florida of brutality against inmates that have ended in eventual deaths.  Not only do inmates suffer brutality from other inmates but from their corrections officers.  In Florida, several prisons within the past several years have been under investigation because things have gotten so out of control.

Remember this is the United States and the lest of infractions can put someone behind bars. Just because they are in prison doesn't mean that should they die there, they are beyond sympathy.
