He would sign a bill to protect animals fromabuse. But whatabot the abuse ofLO living in @FL_Corrections with no air no fans on the canteen #BeatTheHeat
When you think about it, addiction is a disease just like diabetes. The prison system feeds that addiction so the person cannot get better. They keep the person addicted. They are very aware of the rampant drugs and do absolutely nothing to put a stop to it. They are literally contributing to the disease and putting lives at risk. They have drug sniffing dogs to sniff out the drugs so that tells you how aware they are of the issue. DO NOT TELL ME that they cannot do anything about it. They pick and choose who they will punish for doing or having the drugs, knowing it is throughout the prisons. An addict cannot get clean when surrounded by drugs. The old saying that you can get drugs easier in prison than on the streets is so very true. You will never hear our leaders talk about this issue because someone is making money from it. This is not rehabilitation, nor corrections. So if the public think they are safer because "bad' people are locked up, they need to know most do get out and they are not "bad' people. They are sick people suffering with a terrible disease. Who are the true criminals? The @FL_Corrections are practically drug dealers. They can DO BETTER!
A heat wave is coming. In the 90’s @FL_Corrections pls remember our LO are in your care w/o air. If your lO was living in this heat. Think how you would feel 😞
Real Talk!
Let’s get real for a moment. When people are convicted of a crime, they are sentenced to serve their time in prison—simple, right? But what we don't talk about enough is what happens once they get there. The reality is far darker than most of us can imagine. We're not just talking about serving a sentence; we're talking about prison politics, inhumane conditions, and a system designed to break you, not rehabilitate you.
The food? It’s barely edible. Labeled “not for human consumption,” it’s served in small portions that leave people hungry and weak. And let’s not even start on the medical care—subpar is putting it kindly. People are left untreated, suffering from conditions that would be addressed immediately on the outside. Add to that the ever-present police brutality and retaliation, the constant threat of violence, and you start to see why the system fails.
So let me ask: How can anyone sit still, do their time, and truly reflect on their actions in these conditions? How can someone focus on rehabilitation when their basic human dignity is stripped away at every turn? When they’re hungry, sick, and terrified?
The truth is, rehabilitation is nearly impossible in a system that thrives on dehumanization. How are they supposed to “learn their lesson” and “come out better” when the environment is designed to punish, not to help? How can they gather their thoughts, take responsibility, and travel the road to rehabilitation when every day is a fight for survival?
This isn’t just about serving time for a crime—it’s about surviving a broken system. If we ever want true rehabilitation, we need to start by addressing the conditions inside the walls. Because real change doesn’t come from brutality—it comes from giving people a chance to change.
Let’s face the truth: Prison should be a place where people pay their debt to society, not where they lose their humanity. Until we confront these harsh realities, the road to real rehabilitation remains out of reach.
This is real talk—and it’s time we start asking: How is true rehabilitation possible in these conditions? The answer is, it’s not. And that needs to change
Prison is a dangerous place and its horrific conditions can be triggering for anyone. Even so, more than 40% of people behind bars in severe psychological distress have not had mental health treatment.
The carceral system is no place for people who need health care.
All legislators should visit the few modern private #prisons like South Bay, operated by @GEOGroup, which have air conditioning and advanced education programs. Then, they should immediately tour one of our many rural aging state-run facilities run lacking AC and enhanced education programs. The contrast is striking/appalling.
@dianne_abshire@FL_Corrections@FLHouseofReps They should make each and every single officer no matter the rank to recite this every single shift at every single camp!! Accountability goes a long way!!!

Why do you think there are so few prisons in Florida equipped with air conditioning, despite the extreme heat of the state? Can you imagine the unbearable temperatures inside concrete and metal structures, with no relief from the heat all day? What do you believe should be done to address this inhumane condition?
For every new bill to “Get Tough on Crime”, the costs associated with those extra beds, should have an additional cost of the same amount added to the @FL_Corrections budget on top of the requested budget numbers for education and reentry.
If we operate as a Correctional Department there would be #LessVictimsLessCrime
With a median grade level of 3.9 when entering, we must make education and vocational training a priority.
Tonight Florida TORTURE CHAMBERS exceed 120° with humans suffocating and air flow bags stripped from windows. They drench sheets with sweat and cannot sleep. This is not public safety. This is torture not transforming lives @FL_Corrections@csime90@JasonShoafFL
A reminder of the COs oath: "I will treat all with whom I come in contact with civility & respect. I will lead by example & conduct myself in a disciplined manner at all times. I am proud to selflessly serve my fellow citizens as a member of the @FL_Corrections." @FLHouseofReps
Another day of deadly heat in FL. Another day of fighting to make sure cold water is given & fans are turned on. That water's not toxic & those locked in confinement aren't dead. It shouldn't have to be a daily battle to keep our loved ones alive. Or should it? @FL_Corrections
@dianne_abshire@FL_Corrections Yes @FL_Corrections are those in protective & administrative custody getting proper allocation of water , electrolytes? How about a mat , pillow or sheet ? Inhumane treatment at its finest .
