Re: Form S-4 Shelf Registration Statement of The GEO Group, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Cornell Correction of California, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”), in connection with that certain registration statement on Form S-4, File No. 333-173462 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by The GEO Group, Inc. (“Parent”), the Company and certain other subsidiaries of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) relating to the issuance of the Parent’s 6⅝% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Exchange Notes”) and the full and unconditional guarantees as to the payment of principal and interest on the Exchange Notes as set forth in Article Ten of the Indenture referred to below (the “Exchange Note Guarantees”) by the Company and each of the other entities listed in the Registration Statement as Subsidiary Guarantors (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). Pursuant to the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”), the Parent is offering to exchange in the exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) up to $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes for a like amount of its outstanding 6⅝% Senior Notes due 2021 issued on February 10, 2011 (the “Old Notes”), which have not been registered under the Act, and to exchange the Exchange Note Guarantees for the full and unconditional guarantees as to the payment of principal and interest on the Old Notes by the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Exchange Notes and the Exchange Note Guarantees will be registered under the Act as set forth in the Registration Statement and will be issued upon consummation of the Exchange Offer pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of February 10, 2011 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act. This opinion letter is limited to the matters expressly stated herein and no opinions are to be inferred or may be implied beyond the opinions expressly so stated.

In connection with issuing this opinion, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

	(3)		a specimen of the Exchange Notes (the “Specimen,” and collectively with the Indenture, the “Opinion Documents”;

	(4)		the Articles of Incorporation of the Company certified by the California Secretary of State as of January 18, 2011;

	(5)		the Bylaws of the Company dated September 26, 1994, as amended, August 12, 2010, as certified by the Company;

	(6)		the Action by Unanimous Written Consent of the Directors of the Company relating to the Exchange Offer, the Registration Statement and related matters dated February 8, 2011, which is part of the Action by Unanimous Written Consent of the Directors, Managers, Managing Members and General Partners of Those Entities Listed on Annex A thereto;

	(7)		the Certificate to Counsel dated July 8, 2011;

	(8)		the Certificate of Status with respect to the Company issued by the Secretary of State of the State of California dated June 30, 2011 (the “Certificate of Good Standing”); and

We have also examined the originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents, certificates and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to form the basis for the opinions set forth herein.
