Prisoners had to complete offending behaviour courses before release and the courses were simply not available in the numbers required.
The offending behaviour courses inmates were supposed to take were extremely scarce and in some prisons nonexistent.
Despite this, "cognitive skills", "thinking skills", "reasoning and rehabilitation" and various other such "offending behaviour" courses have come to dominate regimes within our prisons, especially at the expense of education.
Standard prison life consists in the main of bang up, aggravation and boredom, interspersed with a smattering of so-called offending behaviour courses, teaching subjects such as enhanced thinking skills and victim empathy.
May, who has been an exemplary prisoner, said: "I was told on numerous occasions by prison staff, probation and psychology, that because of my refusal to accept offending behaviour courses and progress through the system by admitting guilt, I would never get out of prison - my answer to that was 'So be it'".
We used binary logistic regressions, with species and treatments as predictors, to test four additional flight behaviours: course completion, circling, landing, and returning to release point.
As a consequence, indeterminate-sentenced prisoners maintaining innocence are often faced with the so-called parole deal, where they are unable to achieve parole unless they undertake offence-behaviour courses that require the admission of guilt as a prerequisite.
The Actors' Gang 10 class prison program is neither a behaviour management course nor a therapeutic intervention.
There's nothing in the game's world or fiction that accounts for this behaviour, of course.
