      It sounds like the strategy was put them together so they'd be unlikely to fight one another or join a gang, or they'd form a gang themselves. Prisons deliberately encourage inmates to join one of several gangs. Maybe at ADX the prisoners are more unstable than general prisoners, so the strategy is put similar types of violent weirdos together. Sounds like it worked.

        Yeah, the california carceral system is notorious for deliberately stocking racial violence and manipulating the formation of prison gangs as part of a divide and conquer strategy. It's pretty dark even by america standards.
