Prison chess clubs helping rehabilitate inmates
My uncle has been in and out of prison for 30 years after his drunk dad sent him to jail as a 17 year old for writing a check in his dads name.<p>The stupidest part is that the """"justice"""" system never trained him or let him learn to drive. So every time he gets out he has to go to impoverished city centers where he meets right back up with the groups that eventually get him back in prison.<p>He could've made a fine career of being a truck driver if America wasn't so stupid.<p>These types of articles are frustrating because it helps the public feel good about themselves when they have a decades long disaster rolling around with no change.
