    MANILA, Philippines, Jan. 16 (UPI) -- A prison security
    consultant's use of dance in his prisoner rehabilitation regimen in
    the Philippines is producing impressive results, a report said.
    Byron Garcia at the Cebu detention and rehabilitation
    center, told The New York Times weekly outbreaks of violence among
    inmates have subsided, their health has improved and recidivism
    rates have come down dramatically.
    The prisoners produced their own version of the Michael
    Jackson song, "Thriller," whose YouTube footage has been viewed more
    than 10 million times on the video-sharing Web site, the Times said.
    "The videos I uploaded were never meant for entertainment,"
    Garcia said. "I wanted to inform other jails about what was
    happening here."
    Inmates have been spending up to four hours a day practicing
    more than two dozen numbers and putting on shows inside the
    facility.
    Garcia was brought to Cebu in 2002 after a series of riots.
    He helped move the nearly 2,000 inmates from an ancient stockade to
    a new and larger facility and helped inmates open bank accounts.
    Eight other prisons in the country have adopted Garcia's
    methods, including the dance.
    Cebu prison is not a country club but as one inmate told the
    newspaper, "It's really nice here compared to the old prison,"
    adding there are no more drugs and drinking.



    Incentive for you to go back home, gook. Think of all the sex you'll
    have at Cebu

    You can never measure up to anyone in the Philippines!



    Good to see you finally exhibiting national pride in the Philippines
    because you're going back soon. ICE wants you, gook!
    I am an American.
