		Tennessee (state), in the East South Central region of the United States, lying between the Mississippi River on the west and the backbone of the Blue Ridge province of the Appalachian Mountains on the east.

	State Budget
		Most of the state's real spending growth over the past five years has been mandated by the courts or by federal government and is not discretionary, the analysis shows.
		That means Tennessee taxpayers directly subsidize their public institutions of higher learning - everything from UT, the University of Memphis and community colleges to technical institutes and technology centers - to the tune of just over $1 billion, or less than half what the budget might imply.
		In Tennessee's state prisons, for example, the number of inmates grew from 13,295 to 18,408, a 39 percent increase in the last five years.

	No Escape: Male Rape in U.S. Prisons - Deliberate Indifference: State Authorities' Response To Prisoner-On Prisoner ...
		Nearly half of all state jurisdictions do not even collect statistics regarding the incidence of rape (a telling indicator of their lack of seriousness in addressing the issue); those that do collect such data report that it is an infinitely rare event.
		Since the causes of underreporting are well known to prisoners and prison administrators alike, a low frequency of reported cases is no reason for correctional authorities to turn a blind eye to the problem.
		Covering only three units of the state prison system, the program is otherwise a laudable attempt at addressing the problem of inmate-on-inmate sexual abuse.

	States Turn To Private Prisons As Inmate Populations Increase
		States are flocking to prison privatization to cut costs and because many of their prisons and jails are overflowing.
		Because private prisons are newer and designed to require less manpower, their operation tends to be cheaper.
		Tennessee was enticed by a cost-saving claim made by Memphis-based Corrections Corporation of America, a major player in the prison-privatization business, that Tennessee could shave $100 million from its annual $450 million corrections budget by letting CCA run most of its prisons.

	JS Online: Critics question private prisons' accountability
		The Sayre prison, in contrast, is subject to Oklahoma's regulatory authority to license, inspect and audit all private prisons in the state.
		Bo Mitchell, an aide to Tennessee state Sen. Pete Springer, said a list of inmates - which he received under Wisconsin's Open Records law - showed the state was sending Tennessee "the worst of the worst." Many of the exported Wisconsin inmates, he said, had been convicted of sexual assault and murder.
		A June monitor report states that 87 staff members were terminated for "various rule violations" and that the prison had begun to use a polygraph for staff discipline.

	Private Prisons (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Widely used by states in the late 1800s, private prisons fell out of favor as businesses and labor organizations saw prison labor as a competitor they couldn't beat and as atrocities to inmates became widely known.
		But prisons are nothing without inmates, and to protect the millions invested in bricks and mortar, prison corporations worked to minimize their business risks.
		Wisconsin, with nearly 4,500 prisoners in out-of-state private facilities at a cost of $100 million in 1999, is the largest exporter of inmates in the country.

	Federal Government Saves Private Prisons As State Convict Population Levels Off
		What CCA officials didn't anticipate, however, was a sudden stall in the growth of California's prison population and fierce opposition from unionized state prison guards worried about their jobs.
		While state prison populations appeared to be leveling off, the head counts in federal prisons were growing more rapidly than ever, fueled by tougher drug and immigration laws.
		Of the five private prisons now operating under contract with the Bureau of Prisons, three belong to CCA and two to Wackenhut Corrections Corp., the industry's No. 2 player, which has had its own financial problems.
