Kia Ora,
I was just catching up on some local NZ Cis news online and you know how it is, you click on one link then another then another and eventually you're miles away from the original 'unrelated' news item...But anyway I came across this doco...
It's quite saddening yet very interesting, definitely food for thought...No doubt some things have changed since it was filmed...
I'm not sure if it's been posted before, but anyhow.......
It runs for around an hour ...

BTW I've seen the inside of a police cell(not full blown prison-just over night) on two occasions, the first was an incident with racist city cops who were doing the rounds in South Australian bush towns (I was 17 years old "underage" and had been consuming alcohol with a meal with friends-one very small glass of beer) and the second time a friend and I were off our faces, you name it we had taken, smoked and drank it, this time the local Paramatta police (Sydney NSW) locked us up over night for our own good ie, we would have never made it home... ;) ;D
