  • When Prison Gets Old: Examining New Challenges Facing Elderly Prisoners in America
    When Prison Gets Old: Examining New Challenges Facing Elderly Prisoners In America by Benjamin Pomerance ―The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.” -- Russian author Fyodor Dostoyevsky John H. Bunz will celebrate his ninety-second birthday in November.1 Described by observers as ―feeble-looking‖ after the death of his wife in 2010, he requires a walker to take even a couple of steps, and needs a wheelchair to travel any distance of significant length.2 Yet he still is in better health than George Sanges, age 73, who suffers from cerebral palsy, has sagging skin that is listed as ―sallow,‖ takes multiple medications twice a day, and has recently been rushed to the emergency room for heart problems.3 And both of them are far more alert than Leon Baham, a 71-year-old man who has dementia and goes into delusional bouts of yearning for the company of his now-dead wife.4 On the surface, all of these elderly, ailing men have extremely sympathetic profiles. All three need intensive medical care.5 All three have unique physical and emotional needs that are inherent to growing older.6 All three appear to be the type of ―grandfatherly‖ figures to whom our society is historically taught to show the utmost compassion and concern. Yet all three of these individuals also have a huge component of their lives which would naturally tend to turn all thoughts of sympathy and care upside-down. They are all prisoners.7 Not low-level criminals, either, but violent felony offenders with significant sentences.
