Should be breaking rocks, not playing video games. Of course, if he had been executed, this nonsense would not have been an issue at all.

It sounds petty and annoying, but yes, they should have returned his PlayStation after it had been inspected. That is his personal property. If the game console had been lost, destroyed or stolen, he should get paid for its replacement.

I don’t usually side with inmates for much, but I do here. Those personal gadgets probably help to keep these people sane.

The holier than thou, law n' order crowd is singin' in harmony on THIS one.

Having done time more than a few decades ago, I can attest (oh, btw . . . I was guilty) . . . to the the mental turmoil of a free nature now caged and very limited to exercise my brain besides reading . . . . (we didn't have TV's or stuff they have now), and in my opinion, ESPECIALLY Now that I am somewhat addicted to computer communication (like here, right now) and video games . . . . IF a Playstation is an allowable privilege and I've done nothing to jeopardise that, it should be returned . . . an' to the law an' order freaks ? . . . kill me now or allow what life I can live until then . . . . my brain is pretty much a prison in those circumstances . . . . my 2 cent's worth.

Maybe he should get a taste of his own medicine? Give him something to REALLY complain about, huh?

I remember the uproar in the 70s when our inmates got TVs in the cell. Suddenly the dayroom was much quieter and more inmates locked it up early. overall easier to manage the place.

Given what he is in for, I think "sanity" went away a long time ago

A man serving between 50 years and life in the Wyoming prisons system for murdering a man and confining and sexually assaulting a woman

Modern day prison is sounding more and more like living in Mom’s basement.

The problem is . . . the law NOW allows for terminal cases to be kept on life support with a severe penalty to any that might WANT to pull the plug.

We allowed America to get INto this mess and it is our responsibility to correct it
