Hawaii sends many prisoners to the mainland because of overcrowding and yet they retain some prisoners past their release dates.

Otter Creek in Kentucky is a CCA run facility that used to house women, 75% of which were from Hawaii. Having gone thru the hiring process at that facility, I learned that there was a large number of those Hawaiian women that were on anti-depressant medications, because they were so far from friends, and family, and had no opportunity of visits. The facility has now gone back to housing men, although not from Hawaii, due to an almost entirely male staff, and many allegations of abuse and sexual assaults by the staff there. A few examples:
