| What life will be like in prison for Cardinal George Pell? As we read Matt Dunn's article, the maximum-security facility provides primary state-wide assessment and orientation services for male prisoners received into the prison system, meaning he will be housed at the unit until he is sent to the prison where he will spend most of his time behind bars. Melbourne Assessment Prison can cater for more than 300 prisoners and will see Pell locked up alongside Bourke Street killer James Gargasoulas and Eurydice Dixon’s murderer Jaymes Todd. The former treasurer to the Vatican is expected to spend at least the next two weeks behind bars after his bail was revoked. He is due to be sentenced on March 13.
As we read further on, we learn that Cardinal Pell
will likely only be released from a suicide-proof cell for one hour every day in which he will be able to walk around a small isolated yard topped with razor wire.
One wonders how safe are such cells? As explained by Matt Dunn, despite guard supervision, accused killer Borce Ristevski was bashed in the very same yard on his first day inside Melbourne Assessment Prison.
