Corrections Corporation of America calls a critical article in Politico about private prisons, which was summarized in Crime & Justice News, “a rehash of stale arguments that failed to provide a balanced look at the important role we play in addressing the many corrections challenges our nation faces.” Writing in Politico, CCA’s Steve Own says the company “is helping federal, state and local governments find solutions to overcrowded facilities, skyrocketing taxpayer costs and inmates struggling to break the cycle of crime.”
