Prisoners are even allegedly fed caviar.http://www.autosnews.org/marketingadvertising/video-audi-super-bowl-ad-facilities-kenny-g-as-jail-supervisor/

Musician Kenny G is the "head of riot supression" at the prison, who plays some of his softer melodies to calm the unruly prisoners. In this alternate universe, Kenny G only records albums
