Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book reports on a Missouri legislative committee's 1881 investigation into alleged cruel and unusual punishments in the Missouri State Penitentiary. The report includes information gathered from prison officials, guards, inmates, and other witnesses, and provides insights into the prison's disciplinary practices, inmate treatment, and the rationale for employing corporal punishment as a means of maintaining order. The report also examines the efficacy of alternative disciplinary methods and offers a glimpse into the broader historical and social context of prison reform in the United States during the 19th century. As such, this book is a valuable resource for historians, criminologists, and anyone interested in the evolution of the American penal system.
