US Prison vs UK Prison: The Differences That Matter If You're Facing Both

Plea bargaining, guidelines, and parole that no longer exists federally.

Outline

1. Plea bargains are the system in the US, not a side channel

2. Federal sentencing guidelines and what judges can and cannot do

3. No parole: why the stated sentence is close to the served sentence

4. Cell versus dormitory: daily life differences

5. Category A versus US security levels: not equivalent
