Is prison cruel and unusual punishment?

I've watched some documentaries on America's hardest prisons. The torture that people have to go through in prison seems to be beyond belief. I can't help but think that prison doesn't "reform" anyone, it just makes them worse criminals. Some people get a few years and then end up spending LIFE because of what they have to do to survive in prison. People are killed. stabbed, beaten, raped, and tortured. Its disgusting and it needs to be reformed. Not everyone in prison is a rapist or a murderer, and I don't think drug dealers fall in to that category. Wouldn't you agree that the prison system is counter-productive, instead of rehabilitating people, its making them WORSE. Not to mention that since no justice system is perfect, there are innocent people in prison.
