2026/08/04

In Western Australia, prisons so overcrowded that inmates sleep on the floor are now getting a weekly cash payment—just $10.15—for enduring the conditions. This isn’t new; it’s an administrative fix for overflowing facilities where judges are even cutting sentences for serious crimes, citing “inhumane” conditions as mitigating factors. Critics call it a sign of systemic collapse, arguing taxpayers shouldn’t pay prisoners to suffer. The prison population has surged 40% since 2023, with no new
