Poor Treatment of Inmates in Kentucky

Things like this do my head in. What purpose does it serve, treating another human being like an animal, other than to prove you are no better than anyone who's ever been locked up and to continue the cycle of violence and hatred?
My dad is in Marion Adjustment Center and had to be placed in Protective Custody due to being mistreated by guards. He spoke out against the guards after 5 new inmates came into the prison. They were not given a mat to sleep on, sheet, towels, wash cloths, or any change of clothes. They were made to sleep on the floor with just a small blanket. He said that they went 4 days without a shower.

He stated on the phone that guards were not breaking up any fights between inmates. He has since been harrassed and threatened verbally by several guards. Also a guard ask another inmate to hurt my dad, but the inmate (even though he did not know my dad very well) informed my dad that the guards were out to get him and to watch his back.
