It is important because it locked up people that are violent criminals. The guards tought the prisoners to be nicer and to be alot less violenter. It is also important because it tought people a lesson not to be violent and that you do not want to be like this our you are sitting there in a jail cell doind completly nothing and shackles around your ankles. No fresh water our any source of energy on that island. The prisoners sleep on these tiny little cots.
