Yeah but If the prison makes it the 'only available food' for prisoners then 'by necessity' it still applies though , doesn't it ?...
Depends on if the person truly believes they'll be dying "soon" if they don't eat. It definitely depends on the situation.
If you don't eat you will die 'soon' - even if you have water. A number of weeks - maximum. All the while become sick, lethargic, listless, ill, and infirmed and depleted. Without water - only a number of days. Everyone (should) knows that.
The prison authorities dictate what food-stuffs are available to be consumed. End of.
Ergo, Basically what you're saying is - regardless of what words were written, ie " You may not eat .... blah blah blah", it just depends on what excuses you can talk yourself into about what different situations and definitions mean ??. Yes ??...
Depends on how long. I'm not sure. I'd imagine scholarly opinions would go both ways.
