isnt the system to reform the criminal?

No way in the US system because the inmates have too many rights to use the physical harshness that would be necessary to maintain order and discipline conducive to reform. Instead a prison is just a huge cage with a bunch of animals who just reinforce each other's predispositions and prey upon the weakest.
