How do I make a death row cell?

[Hallowenman]

There is 1 death row prisoner avaible for intake, but on the list of the next arriving prisoners the death row prisoner wont be transferred. The help/information says I need a death row cell for these prisoners, but what does it require? I have cells that I have marked as "Death Row Only"

I have my execution chamber marked as death row only. Maybe its that?

I figured it out. Apperantly I had not marked any cells as Death Row Only because I had recently modified the prison layout, so walls etc had been removed and rebuilt, so the game didnt know which room was used for death row prisoners. But how often do you get death row prisoners, and I also sent my death row prisoner to appeal the chargers, he never returned to his cell, so I assume they didnt want to sentece him to death?

Yeah, your prisoner was given clemency. Death row prisoners are quite rare, but you can modify the .ini save file. Just search "BEGIN Intake" and change the value after "pool" to whatever you want - within reasonable range obviously ;)

You can also send any prisoner currently in your prison to death row (I am not sure if there is a limit to the number of death row inmates a prison can have, except for the obvious number of death row only cells you have) using the same method. If this is something you might want to do just ask me how and I can provide the instructions.

Aside from the execution chamber, you need at least one cell set for Death Row in deployment to accept DR inmates (you rarely need more than 4, as DR intakes are pretty rare). DR inmates are no problem, they're on full lockdown and completely suppressed.

Clemency appeals, if they fail, decrease their clemency chance by 50%. So, for example if you have a DR inmate at 36%, he has that chance of having his sentence commuted at the Death Row appeal and migrating to the general population.

If he fails, that chance drops to 18%. Some 3 days later, he will attend another clemency hearing. If he fails that one, clemency drops to 9% (below the threshold, assuming you've researched the appropriate tech with your Lawyer).

Time to fire up Ol' Sparky.

(If you execute a prisoner when his clemency rate is too high, you risk a substantial fine.)
