Alabama lawmakers are considering a plan from Governor Robert Bentley to overhaul Alabama’s prison system. It would use an $800 million bond issue to build four new prisons while closing most others. The proposal takes on renewed importance after two violent uprisings at the Holman Correctional Facility in south Alabama on Friday and Monday. In remarks after touring the facility, the governor says he can’t guarantee the same thing won’t happen again. We talk about the situation with Alabama Media Group columnist John Archibald.
