There have been cases in the US of local judges taking kickbacks from privatised prisons to give out longer sentences.

Makes sense if your business model is utilising convict labour- but does inject perverse incentives into sentencing policy.

nobody is talking about prison privatisation here ...

That's right.

Well done. :)

The work is done by Unicor, previously known as Federal Prison Industries. It’s a government-owned corporation, established during the Depression, that employs about 20,000 inmates in 70 prisons to make everything from clothing to office furniture to solar panels to military electronics.

Yes, and all the principles of imprioning people in order to make a profit apply to government agencies just as much as private ones.
