I wouldn't like to share a room with her either Rose but I like a bit of solitude and privacy.
This is a difficult one; the fact that she is suing seems a bit ridiculous to me, I would have thought senior prison officers and the prison governor could assess her and make decisions about her circumstances in prison. They should have discretion in cases like this.
Prison staff always say that considering some of the needs of long term inmates makes for a smoother running prison. They are the ones who have to manage them after all and if the men or women are reasonably content, they will be less trouble. They've been judged, sentenced etc, and there's no point in piling on more punishment. That isn't the role of prison officers anyway.
The woman killed three men and is paying the price, as far as anyone can, for her crime. She is no longer under the influence of her man friend. Some supervised social interaction might be beneficial but that doesn't mean she would be sharing a cell, just taking part in activities and working.
It's a fact that long term solitary can drive someone completely mad and there's no point in that.
