Four friends, Bob, Sue, Tom, and John have been convicted of bank robbery. Upon sentencing, they discover that they are being sent to four different prisons, each with its own philosophy of corrections. Bob spends much of his sentence in an isolation cell; he is also subject to strict rules and regulations and has no access to rehabilitation programs. Sue finds herself in a prison that is filled with individuals serving very lengthy sentences as well as some low-level offenders, who, she thinks, should never have been incarcerated because their crimes are not serious. Tom, on the other hand, has access to many different treatment programs. Finally, the prison where John is incarcerated is focused on John's success when he returns to the community. He spends his time preparing for release.

Tom is most likely incarcerated in a prison that adheres to the ________ model of corrections.

A. punishment
B. crime control
C. rehabilitation
D. reintegration
