Titan jails 'will repeat mistakes made in US'
Building giant "Titan" prison complexes will lead Britain towards a "American-style" justice system, a leading US civil rights lawyer will warn today.
Professor Bryan Stevenson, from New York University, will say Britain risks copying the "damaging and discredited" US system.
The costly 2,500-place prison "warehouses" will undermine efforts to rehabilitate offenders, he will say.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
