Addressing Mr Justice Hickinbottom in London, Gleaves said: "The situation in regard to the use of buckets is deplorable because not every prisoner chooses to use it as the target for waste.
"Many put newspaper on the floor, use that and throw it out of the window.
"The use of this type of sanitation in cells is demeaning, utterly despicable in relation to people's behaviour and upsetting to a number of inmates who have never encountered such a practice before. "
Well I'm sure the 2 teenage boys you raped have something to say about their human rights too!
Criminals are put in prison for a reason, and it's not so they can spend all day working out or playing video games. You do the crime, you suffer the consequences. In my opinion ALL prisons ought to be more like the Victorian ones instead of soft cushy places to live courtesy of the tax-payer.
