What is the difference between a detention center and a prison? Did you first enter the detention center to live with other prisoners? Or is he being held by himself? Want to work?

Detention centers mainly hold people who are suspected of committing crimes but have not been sentenced by the court, while prisons hold prisoners who have been sentenced by the court. By its meaning, prison also includes detention center. When you first enter the detention center, you cannot live with other prisoners and can only be held in solitary confinement. Only prisoners in prisons need to be reformed through labor, while criminal suspects in detention centers do not need to work.

First, according to our country’s laws, detention centers and prisons are strictly distinguished and cannot be confused. Generally speaking, admission to prison means that the prisoner can only be released after serving his sentence or performing well. What's more, people who commit serious crimes can only die in prison and have no contact with each other for the rest of their lives. The detention center only holds people who have committed minor crimes and only holds them for a few days. Or someone who is suspected of committing a crime but has no actual evidence to obtain a court verdict. If these people can prove their innocence, they will be easily released.

Second, prison and detention center personnel cannot live together. Detention center officers can only be transferred to prison after being sentenced by the court. People who live in the detention center don't stay long, so people in the detention center don't need to work. Only in prison are prisoners strictly required to reform their minds or develop skills through labor.

Our country is very strict in criminal law management, but it is very humane in controlling people suspected of committing crimes. Whether they are people in detention centers or prisoners in prisons, the state encourages them to make meritorious deeds and use their outstanding performance to obtain a lighter punishment. Now is a society ruled by law. Contact our residents to familiarize yourself with our laws and try not to break the law or you will regret it.
