I didn't say *most* criminals, Scrump. I said, some younger prisoners were doing it. I would imagine it would be the trustees or perhaps some who are close to release time, and perhaps it counts toward release.

All I know is that that the ones they showed were feeding a couple of old men, wiping their mouths gently, lifting them expertly and smoothly into bed at the end.

A gross generalization here: I would not be surprised to learn that on a personal level some hardened criminals are caring people. Check out the prison programs where the prisoners who qualify are given dogs to train and socialize.
