Answer to Question 1

Sex offenders often have difficulty adjusting to prison. In many prisons, they are vulnerable to assaults because other offenders want them to pay for their crimes. Some prisons place sex offenders out of the general population to protect them from assaults from other offenders. Treatment programs are offered in most prisons for sex offenders. The programming is intense and can meet from 6 to 10 hours a day. Recidivism is extremely high for sex offenders.

Answer to Question 2

Drug- or alcohol-addicted inmates may face withdrawal when they enter prison. Withdrawal can lead to cardiac arrest, kidney failure, and hallucinations. Drug- and alcohol-addicted inmates try to feed their addiction by making prison hooch, which is contraband in prisons. Drug- and alcohol-addicted offenders need to be provided with treatment during incarceration. This is not always available for all addicts, but there is evidence that shows that offenders who complete treatment are less likely to recidivate.
