I worked as a prison guard in a solitary confinement area. The other guards really just stayed in their central area. I would actually get out and go by each cell and talk to everyone for a bit. Let them know what all was happening in the world, what time it was, what was going on in the world, etc. I had grown men, literally crying to find out it was raining outside, they literally couldn't remember what raid looked like. It's inhumane.
