The Devils Den of Prison and Justice, the latest book from regional best-selling author John J. Pecchio, is an engrossing, insightful, and highly informative look into what truly goes on behind federal and state prison walls. Pecchios career as a prison instructor, which spanned nearly three decades, has provided him with the first-hand knowledge necessary to expose the failings of both prison and government officials to successfully rehabilitate dangerous criminals. Instead of enforcing self-discipline, a no-tolerance policy for infractions, and a strong work ethic into the prisoners daily lives, officials have allowed them to hide behind their civil rights and in doing so indulge and cater to their every whim for fear of retribution. This critical breakdown in power is thereby leading to a complete loss of authority and control in the prison system. Pecchios vivid descriptions and shocking accounts of the violence, manipulation and corruption that he and other prison employees encountered throughout their careers will give readers an insiders look into a world of which little is known by the public. I highly recommend The Devils Den of Prison and Justice to anyone who is looking to become informed of an increasingly dangerous national problem that isnt receiving the attention it deserves.
