Department of Justice to stop using private prisons

Due to years of documented negligence and violence, as well as countless safety and security incidents, the Department of Justice will start scaling back its use of private prisons. the goal is to compeltely end the federal government's use of private prisons.

The Feds won't pull out over night. Instead, when each prison contract comes up for renewal over the next 5 years, the DoJ will review them, with the goal of scaling back their use.

Personally, I think this a big step towards badly needed prison and justice reform. Maybe if recidivism stops being profitable, we'll see less of it.
