Based on your experience working within the system, how likely do you think it is that other prisoners will be sympathetic toward someone like Peters?

I was moved by the Judge’s compassionate words regarding the people he often saw in his courtroom. He talked about how most of them are living with unimaginable trauma, substance addiction, mental illness, they come from broken homes and have never had the privilege or opportunities that Peters has had. Her assertion of privilege and what she “needed” in contrast to the rest of the population he sees really angered him.

Assuming what he says is true, how do you think other prisoners might deal with Peters’ selfish, narcissistic behavior?

I think she’s due for some re-education from her fellow prisoners.
