What they have to report is very disturbing: petitions for clemency lying unread in a pile of papers for years or decades, lifers who theoretically have parole eligibility getting completely forgotten and dying behind bars while others with the same sentence are set free, hideous overcrowding, and so on.
This book was published in 1992, and the articles were written in the 1970s and 1980s. So it's dated. I think things have probably just changed for the worse now, as more and more people are behind bars serving very long terms. ( )
