= New staff : The Lawyer
Unlocked in the usual way through Bureaucracy, and requires his own office. The lawyer grants access to a variety of legal loopholes and new facilities for your prison.
Prison Cells can be built to any size - they are no longer to obey the legal minimum of 3x2 metres. Note they must still contain a bed and a toilet.
Prisoners can now be assigned lockup or solitary confinement that remains in place until you say otherwise. This is a massive breach of their human rights, but the Lawyer will allow you to skirt the issue and do it anyway.
Opens up the opportunity and responsibility of executing prisoners sentenced to death.
= Death row
To receive Death Row prisoners, you must:
Death Row prisoners will then begin show in your Intake screen - although they are quite rare. They must stay in a Death Row designated cell, and they do not follow the regime.
Every Death Row prisoner has a chance to try to clear his name, or have his sentence commuted. He will attend the appeals process, and each time has a chance to be released, or downgraded to max-sec.
This represents your staff's best estimate at his chances at clemency. Each time he fails the appeals process, his estimated chance of clemency is HALVED. The more appeals you allow for a prisoner, the more certain you can be of his guilt.
= Executions
Once you are satisfied a Prisoner has had sufficient chance to appeal, you may schedule an Execution. This can be done from his Rap Sheet, and once begun it will take over your view until over.
A process must be followed for each execution:
Once completed, you will be given a report on the success or failure of your execution. If justice was done, you will receive a $10,000 bonus for your work.
WARNING: If you push ahead with an execution before sufficient appeals have occurred, you will be held personally responsible if evidence comes to light which later exonerates the prisoner. You will be fined $50,000 instantly. The intake queue of Death Row prisoners will immediately empty. In addition, any Death Row inmates within your facility will be immediately transfered away by bus. If this happens 3 times, you will be fired.
NOTE: The state sanctioned "safe level" for chance of clemency is 5%. In other words, if you wait until a prisoners clemency chance is below 5%, you will not be held liable for any miscariages of justice that may later come to light. Your Lawyer can raise this threshold to 10% if you instruct him to do so.
= New room : Reception
An optional room, that gives Prisoners a dedicated arrival point (replacing Deliveries) Once built, all new prisoner arrivals will go through this room.
NOTE: The Laundry Logistics system will assign one of your laundries to handle the clean uniform requirements.
= Bug Fixes
