Beyond Scared Straight

description

"Beyond Scared Straight" is a reality television show that was broadcasted on A&E Network. The show features teenagers who are taken to prisons and jails to meet with inmates and to experience the harsh reality of life behind bars. The aim of the show is to deter young people from committing crimes by showing them the consequences of their actions.

The show gained popularity and was widely watched, but it also faced criticism. Some people argue that the show is exploiting young people and that it is ineffective in preventing juvenile delinquency. Others suggest that the show presents a skewed view of the criminal justice system and that it portrays a narrow and stereotypical view of inmates.

Despite the controversy surrounding the show, it had a significant impact on popular culture. The concept of taking troubled youth to visit prisons has been used in other shows, and it has also been adopted as a strategy by some law enforcement agencies. However, the effectiveness of this approach in preventing juvenile delinquency remains a subject of debate.

The popular reality series The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills began its second season with a rush to re-edit some of the scenes already shot after the August 15, 2011 suicide of Russell, the husband of Taylor Armstrong. Taylor had previously accused her husband of physically abusing her and she since became an advocate for domestic violence victims and works with the Los Angeles based 1736 Family Crisis Center. Taylor Armstrong has been recently quoted as saying "I have finally found my voice, and now not afraid to use it". In a quote from season one of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she sounded a bit selfish when she said "It may look like I have it all, but I want more!" Her husband, Russell, was a venture capitalist and they were both heavily involved in philanthropy. Other returning members include Lisa Vanderpump, married to Ken Todd for the past 29 years and is now turned 50 years old (making her oldest housewife on the program). Owners of 26 restaurants, Lisa and Ken have both appeared on other TV programs such as Baywatch Nights and Silk Stalkings. Born and raised in Albuquerque Adrienne Maloof-Nassif was the daughter of a Coors distributor and later married cosmetic surgeon Dr. Paul Nassif, now residing in Beverly Hills, California.
