Odd how this works: a private company, for profit, takes over a prison for the state. Then the state is required to come up with inmates to fill it, or pay the company for the empty cells anyway. Talk about pressure to fill beds! Arizona has 3 prisons that require 100% occupancy. If you ever wonder why the U.S. has so many prisoners, just remember this!
