Victorian inmates were often abused due to a combination of institutional neglect, harsh disciplinary practices, and societal attitudes towards punishment and social control. The prison system in that era focused more on punishment and containment rather than rehabilitation, which led to oppressive conditions and mistreatment of prisoners. Additionally, power imbalances within the prison system allowed for abuse by guards and other authorities.

Early research on a subject that focused solely on inmates who were abused as children may have led to biased and limited conclusions. It's important in research to have diverse and representative samples to avoid generalizing findings to broader populations. Additionally, the prison environment itself can also influence results, so caution is needed when applying research findings to other contexts.

Is it true that 84 percent of prison inmates were abused as children?

A website run by the Baltimore County police department says so. However, they cited no study, nor have I found one to back their assertion.Nor do they distinguish between whether it is the nation's statistic, or just Balitmore's.A U.S. Department of Justice report said that 10 to 76 percent of males in various stages of corrections reported physical or sexual abuse - so clearly Baltimore's figure given is questionable.It may have to do with the fact that the figure is on their anti-child abuse page. Maybe it is a scare number, to encourage parents not to raise future felons. Whatever the reasons they have, it is not a number to be blindly accepted.
