Even at the lower levels of offending, you might find that the collective wealth of criminal gangs could be used to provide their members with a cozy prison cell. I don't mean to suggest that the existance of pay-to-stay prison cells might incentivise gang membership, but this could be flagged as one potential flow on effect.

If prison is meant to have a deterrence effect - particularly for low level offending - then these facilities make no sense whatsoever.
