Hell Behind Prison Walls: Shams, Charades & Circus from 25 Years of Instructing Inmates

Hell Behind Prison Walls: Shams, Charades & Circus from 25 Years of Instructing Inmates

Hell Behind Prison Walls is a true story about John Pecchio's twenty-five years of experience as a shoemaker and Vocational Instructor in one of the more dangerous all-male, maximum-security prisons in New York State, the Elmira Correctional Facility and Reception Center.

Prisons have lost their ability to rehabilitate prisoners. Pecchio views prisons as small towns that are isolated from civilization and filled with murderers, rapists, drug pushers and the mentally unstable. They are power-seeking individuals who operate on fear, greed, ignorance, and manipulation.

Prisoners' rights have currently taken precedence over all else. Administrators spend more time fearing punishment from their superiors than they do keeping their prisons secure. In doing so, they have contributed to lowering the morale and safety of prison employees to the lowest point in history.

Lawmakers who pass humanitarian laws protecting prisoners' rights without knowing the impact of them have created a wave of pressure and danger within the prison system.
