Trending Video: Luxury Hotel Or Dutch Prison?

  • by: Maarten Schenk

A video is doing the rounds on Facebook apparently showing an inmate in a Dutch prison in Alphen aan den Rijn enjoying the good life. Apparently if you are incarcerated in the Netherlands you get to smoke weed (indoors), you get a well-stocked food supply (including proteins), a refrigerator, a gaming computer and a fruit basket to welcome you to your cell. And to top it all off you can have a mobile phone with internet access so you can broadcast yourself to the world...

Gezellig.

En dan nu, live vanuit de NEDERLANDSE GEVANGENIS-HEL. Jointje erbij, koran erbij, gebedsmatje erbij, vers fruit, muziek, tv. Het leven is goed. Doe ons ook 4 jaar gratis leven gek!

The video was posted this morning on Dutch weblog GeenStijl. They also claim to have identified the prison: PI Alphen a/d Rijn, which can be found here on Google Maps.
