In my correspondence with prisoners, I get the impression that in most California prisons an inmate can exercise his right to die rather easily. All one needs to do is to walk up to a very big guy with lots of tattoos and accuse him of being an eel-wriggler or an icchantika. Death before midnight is pretty much guaranteed.
