That is crazy! I know in California they allow some prisoners to live in the Fire camps and fight fires while they serve their time. However I thought they were a little more careful as to what level of criminal they allow to do this. As far as I know they never would let a level 3 prisoner and up participate. As I have mostly read that violators for drug use mostly participate. Which in my opinion prison is not the place for people with drug addiction. But that is my opinion.

I wonder what in the world were they thinking, allowing two killers and a rapist out of the prison to do anything. It makes you wonder about the reasoning of people and how the prison system works at all.
