Prison cells should be individual, not shared with other inmates. Both from a security perspective and from an ethical perspective. Everyone, even rapists and murderers deserve personal space. But in most of the world I guess this is unrealistic. The problem with solitary confinement isn't the cell per se, but that you are locked in your cell all day, every day for months (years) on end. The only human contact you have is limited contact with the guards. If you are lucky you get 30 minutes in the yard. Alone. Over time that can drive anyone insane.
