Bordelais: A nation’s shame! ‘The conscience of a society can be judged by looking into its prison!’

St. Lucia Star Online "Every year, count on it, Gus Small will be delivering a doomsday report on Bordelais—our so-called Correctional Facility. As deputy director, Small has often prayed for “divine intervention” when it comes to coping with Bordelais’ countless problems. He has taken to referring to the prison as a “human warehouse”. No surprise that his cries fall on deaf ears. St Lucians are concerned only with punishment, not rehabilitation. Here, convicted criminals are locked up and for the most part forgotten. Out of sight, out of mind."
