Today, it is an accepted belief that prison inmates, just like other Americans, are guaranteed certain constitutional rights. However, this was not always so. Prior to the 1960s were no rights for prisoners. In fact, prisoners they were considered slaves of the state, and for the most part, prison officials were allowed to run their institutions and treat their prisoners as they saw fit, even if meant violating the inmates' constitutional rights. Judges did not intervene on behalf of prisoners who had been mistreated because they believed that was the responsibility of the prison officials to manage the prison population. It was thought that correctional administrators and officers they were better qualified to run prison programs than the court system was. This concept was described as the hands-off policy.
