Doesn't this depend a great deal on which prison? I imagine a Dutch prison is very different, for example, but this isn't something I know much about.

Yes, It's highly variable in the US. Most prisons are run by a US state, and conditions vary wildly even within the same state.

Even American prisons tend to have offenders split into violent and non-violent institutions based on offence. In here it is burglary, so I guess they counted it as violent.

But, that UK hacker that got arrested after black hat was in non-violent section.
