the thing is, rapists are typically regarded as scum even among prisoners
violent criminals, even murderers, will look down on rapists. why? because most of them think "this pervert would gladly rape my mother" or something along those lines. even homicide is regarded higher since they demand even a bit of fear. a killer is looked at as tough and hardcore, a rapist is a sick and twisted little shit.
he's gonna be protected in prison, no doubt
