Obviously you don't know much about prisons or jails in the real world. As with most things Hollywood has created a totally unrealistic view of correctional facilities for public consumption.
Having spent 15 years working in the field I feel somewhat qualified to respond to your comments. Ten years of that was spent working in a maximum security facility.
Yes sometimes rape and sex happens, but not nearly as often as Hollywood wants people to believe. It is the rare occurence, not the norm.
According to the American Correctional Association reviews of correctional medical facilities, the incidence of HIV and Hep C is very close to that of your average town. Why? Because prisoners recieve a level of medical care inside an institution that is above what they would normally seek on their own.
Try reviewing the facts before you spew "accepted beliefs" and state them as fact.
