In this episode, we break down how private prisons became a major part of Arizona’s corrections system and why the state relies on contract prison beds at one of the highest rates in the country. We walk through where private prisons came from, how sentencing policy and population growth shaped Arizona’s prison infrastructure over time, who operates these facilities today, what they cost taxpayers, and how decisions about incarceration capacity are made through the state budget and legislative process.
We also explore how Arizona compares to other states, who benefits from contract prison systems, and what policy options exist if the state chooses to manage prison capacity differently in the future.
