Torturing is easier than reforming, and requires zero compassion. I have no respect for the guy, but I'm not a big fan of dicks, so...

What most liberals don't understand is that the vast majority of the inmates in the prison system either can't or won't be "rehabilitated."

Do you have evidence of this?

Punishing them to an extent where they're going to fear going back to prison is one of very few alternatives we have. Frankly, the only problem I see with our prison system is that they're not hard enough on inmates.

Being "hard" does nothing but break them as humans, and some of the prisoners were not sentenced, but were still waiting to be.

I agree that this particular sheriff may be on the more extreme side of things, but at the same time, I would feel safer if my state's prisons were run a little more like that and a little less like small, free apartments.

Hahaha... Extreme side? You mean like advocating torture? Small apartments? Give me a break.
I'm happy that systems
try to reform. I believe this is the only way to change things.
