Convicted felons prepare for graduation
The Associated Press
AUSTIN — Preparations are
underway for a graduation next
month. The ceremony will feature
a group of students preparing to
take their place in society, but it
won't occur at a college or feature
scholastic diplomas.
Instead, this commencement
will be at a state prison. The "stu
dents" are convicted felons.
The graduation will be the first
for a new prison substance abuse
program, which has received as
much criticism as it has praise.
"I can't say I'm glad I came to
the penitentiary," said Guadalupe
Canales, who expects to graduate
in January.
"But if I had to be here. I'm
glad this program was in the
prison system and I got a chance
to partake in it because if I would
have just come to the penitentiary,
done my time and got back out
with no treatment, I would have
come right back in here or gotten
myself killed."
Canales, serving a five-year
sentence for a Nueces County rob
bery, is one of 410 Texas inmates
in the treatment program in the
Clements Unit, a state prison in
Amarillo designed for 2,250 maxi
mum-security prisoners.
The program celebrates its first
graduation Dec. 4 and its second a
month later, the Austin American-
Statesman reported in its Sunday
editions.
The nine-month program is a
manifestation of a promise by
Gov. Ann Richards, a recovering
alcoholic, to expand drug and al
cohol treatment programs in
prison.
"When you've got 80 percent
of the people in (prison) who are
addicted, it's pretty obvious that
when you put them back out there
on the street, they're still going to
be addicted and they're going to
commit their crime to get the
drugs again, and you have got to
break the cycle of that behavior,"
Richards said.
The program, she said, teaches
inmates to accept responsibility,
shows them there are people they
can trust and helps them find fol
low-up care "to help them lead a
straight and narrow life."
There are three treatment phas
es: in-prison therapy, a three-
month halfway house program
and an outpatient phase when the
inmate is freed, said Dorothy
Brown, coordinator for the prison
system's treatment programs.
But it's costly — about $8,000
per inmate — and some critics say
it isn't worth the money.
George W. Bush, Richards'
GOP rival in next year's election,
is one prominent critic of the pro
gram.
"He isn't convinced of the
long-term effectiveness," said
Karl Rove, Bush's campaign con
sultant.
Other critics fear inmates'ef
forts to control their addictions
will be corrupted by prison peer
pressure. They argue inmates will
be reluctant to join the program,
or, once enrolled, will drop out to
avoid the hassles of being differ
ent.
But Canales and others say
they plan to prove the critics
wrong.
"There are a lot of people here
with 50s and 60s (50 -and 60-year
sentences) and life sentences, and
a lot of them already got their
frame of mind, T ain't ever going
to get to change. I'm just going to
do my time and that's the way it
is,"' Canales said. "But they can
look in at us and see that we were
just like them but we're changing,
and it shows them that anybody
can change if they try."
TB
Continued from Page 1
complete their drug treatment
and eventually develop TB again.
When patients become re-in
fected and start medication again,
McMurray said that is the time
when problems arise with drug-
resistant strains of the disease be
cause the body is already accus
tomed to treatment.
"We have got to do something
about compliance," he said. "We
could probably prevent more
drug resistant strains from arising
if we could make sure patients
stick with the medication."
McMurray said a shortened pe
riod of therapy or the develop
ment of an implantable drug de
livery system could improve pa
tient compliance.
Another possibility that Mc
Murray said could be used to in
crease compliance is direct obser
vation therapy, where drug thera
py is overseen by a health care of
ficial.
"Many states already have
laws which call for d.o.t. (direct
observation therapy)," he said.
"It has been very effective."
Dr. William Conkling, health
authority for Brazos County, said
tuberculosis is present locally, but
he is not as concerned with TB as
with other diseases.
The Brazos County Health De
partment sees local TB patients
once a week and also holds a doc
tor's clinic once a month.
Conkling said the county has a
nurse assigned to work with tu
berculosis patients.
"The key to control is proper
screening and observed drug
therapy," Conkling said. "If we
give medications, we do observed
medication services."
Conkling said he would like to
see screening done on all foreign
nationals coming into this com-,
munity in order to reduce the risk
of infection.
McMurray also said more fre
quent skin testing should be insti
tuted.
"It probably ought to be insti f
tuted in professions where em
ployees are in direct contact with|
people," McMurray said.
Because tuberculosis is a per
son-to-person disease and is so
easily transmitted, he said, every
body is at risk of infection.
"The problem is all it takes is
one person with TB to infect a
large group," he said. "I certainly
wouldn't place a college student
in the high risk group."
The biggest increase in tuber
culosis transmission since 1985
has come in ethnic minority
groups, especially Hispanics,
blacks and Asians, McMurray
said.
The challenge with this once
easily cured disease now is elimi
nation.
"Unfortunately, there isn't any
thing in a free-living society that
can be done except to be aware
that the disease is coming back,’
he said.
"In the long run, we have to
come up with some world-wide
solutions."
