Where are/were these private prisons located? Why would the government not want control of its own prisoners? With all of the money made on rap music (even back then), why would these investors be interested in the likes of government funding?
This is some straight up bullshit, imo; likely being dumped by the "rap music causes violence" crusaders.
No verification, no names = no validity, as far as I'm concerned.
Are you kidding? You don't know about private prisons?! It's HUGE business. Governments want $$$ and this saves them big money as well as some probable kick backs. They buy and build prisons and jails and then contract their 'services,' to the state or county, to run the facilities. Jeez, didn't you hear about the Pennsylvania judges who were taking kickbacks to send juveniles to these places? One kid committed suicide and his mother was on the news screaming at the judge.
Here's just one company and their facilities:
