I guess that's where a lot of them are headed...

Women in jails are the fastest growing incarcerated population, study says



Women held in local jails represent the fastest growing population of incarcerated people in the US, according to a new study. The researchers found that trauma, sexual violence and mental health issues were all closely wrapped up with the swelling numbers.
The majority of those women entering jail are black and Hispanic, mirroring demographic trends that cross gender lines. Women, however, tend to enter jails in more vulnerable situations than men, as a higher percentage of women in jail were using drugs, unemployed or receiving public assistance at the time they were arrested.
For example, about a third of all women in jail have a serious mental illness, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or major depression – more than twice the rate that exists for jailed men and about six times that of women in the general public.

Society used to have the collective ethic that we should maintain asylums and house the crazy people in them. But over time, that idea came to be considered antiquated, cruel, and a waste of money. Those hospitals were too much like prisons. Now, we just push the mentally ill out into the street, where they will inevitably end up in real prison, which just costs society more money.
