Jailhouse Talk

By Anne Skove, Esq.

Never been to jail but just a leeetle curious about what it's like on the inside? Ask Kiefer Sutherland!

All lights, no smokes, no motor car, not a single luxury.

Lost Boy tells all: Sutherland Says Jail Was Bad, Chicago Tribune (November 19, 2008).

Great PR of sorts for every commentator out there who thinks jail is too nice a deal. As Prof. Groot used to say, "We send people to jail as punishment, not for punishment."

Meanwhile, Britney Spears Calls Her Life Worse Than a Jail Sentence, Monique Jessen, People (November 18, 2008). The Toxic young lady has a point. With jail, there's a beginning, middle, and end. With a more fuzzy situation such as conservatorship or civil commitment, it's not over until They say so.

So who would you rather be -- Kiefer or Britney?
