What a wonderful story. Nobody flees from love, indeed. This is an idea with tangible value. Not just for Brazil, either.

  But they are evil! Why else would they be in prison in the first place so you must crush their twistes minds with every humilation possible and then force them by any means to become good humans again out of fear for more punishmant ... why change that wonderful, established system, that has proven to work so well?

  But (not) fleeing from discipline is not such a guaranteed win. This model is good for non-violent inmates, but it doesn't work for all cases.

    The fact that it doesn't work in one sense (containing people) is the reason it might work in another sense (reforming people). If the majority of inmates are serious about reform then this will have a powerful '100th monkey' effect on new inmates.
