It is interesting to see how prisons have changed through the years. The Last Statement would be interesting. Crime effects so many people not just the prisoner.
I would imagine the information on each photo would be very interesting to read. We visited the jail in St. Augustine and were all shocked to learn that the ball on the ball and chain was light as a feather! It is made of plastic. It is when it is filled with sand and water that it gets very heavy! I just always thought they were metal. But the one in the St. Augustine jail was plastic that was transported empty.
More exhibits at the TX Prison Museum. The row of photos in the top picture are part of the "Last Statement" . I didn't read all of them but what I did read was interesting.
