Do you think that in hot climates, jails and prisons should have air conditioning?

I was just googling around the internet and came upon this article about jails in the United States not having air conditioning:

Some jails do, some don’t. In the county I work in (a wealthy county), I asked one of the HVAC guys if the jail has AC and he said some parts do. He told me that it’s very expensive to keep air conditioning in the jail because they need huge chillers that have to be maintained, and now they have to be tested for Legionaire’s Disease. That work (cleaning the towers) is done by contractors. Here in New York, it’s only really hot maybe June, July, August and part of September.

I haven’t formed an opinion on this. I can see both sides of it. What do you think?
