Schwarzenegger wants to “outsource” inmates to Mexico
Jan 27th, 2010 by admin
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has suggested the state could reduce prison spending by housing undocumented inmates in Mexican jails.
In comments made during a question and answer session, he seemed to suggest the prisons would be specially built.
Mr Schwarzenegger said the costs of building and running the prisons in Mexico would be half of California’s.
The state has one of the most overcrowded and underfunded prison systems in the US.
