This article discusses how badly the corrections officers treat the inmates at Mid-State Correctional Facility in New York. The inmates are beaten and penetrated by foreign objects by the officers that are supposed protect them. Not only are they mistreating the inmates but they are getting away with it as well. There are many instances and examples of inmates from this specific facility, Mid-State Correctional Facility, getting beaten by guards. These allegations of brutality against the inmates are going more viral now than ever.

Government paper The Texas prison system is a very cruel cutthroat system that has many problems And racial issues. The system is deeply embedded in the state’s budget, but also in its political, cultural, and social fabric and impacts the lives of millions of people. From the wrong the accused, actual criminal and racial profiled African Americans and hispanics to the wardens, prison guards, judges and politicians who work on or for the prisons. Through his Book “Texas Tough” Robert Perkinson shows an effective argument against how Texas is using the prison system as a way to control and unethically treat African Americans and other minorities just like they did from 1870-1965 with the jim crows laws through the criminal system by using statistical evidence, Historical evidence, and Historical pictures of african american prisoners being treated like slaves by the Texas prison system.
Summary of Barrier island stratigraphy and Holocene history of west-central Florida In Davis et. Al (2003), researchers studied the Holocene Barrier island and inner continental shelf located in west-central Florida. The study itself took place in the northern Florida Gulf peninsula barrier inlet, extending from Anclote Key to Cape Romano. The purpose of this research project was to analyze the characteristics and nature of the barriers, as well as to understand where the barriers were formed and the process(s) of that formation.
One specific point, was the behaviour of some of the Correctional Officer’s that were responding to Ashley Smith’s cell. There was incident showed on the fifth estate that stated there was a Correctional Officer outside of Ashley Smith’s cell that was banging and kicking the door yelling “Are you dead yet?”. This Correctional Officer was watching what Ashley was doing in her cell but never took it upon himself to call for back up and enter the cell to stop what was going on. In result, this was an ongoing occurrence for Ashley to actively act out, and I can notice as to why Officer’s were getting agitated by this but the behaviour that went on from an Officer is not appropriate.
He supports his belief that prison is too brutal with a fact from The Boston Globe (1994) which says that “more than 200,000 prison inmates are raped each year, usually to the indifference of the guards.” Jacoby quotes former Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun who writes, “The horrors experienced by many young inmates,
Unable to make bail, Mr. Browder languished in Riker’s Island for 3 years –never receiving a trial. After those 3 long years – filled with abuse from inmates and guards alike, after nearly 800 days of solitary confinement, after over 30 hearings, and after numerous postponements, the charges against Mr. Browder would be dropped and
Officers who are left with lack of sleep, lack of departure from the job, lack of time off, and lacking personal time are at greater risk of accidents, injury, and liability due to the stressors of the job and interaction with the socially unstable, mental handicapped, aggressive, and assaultive inmates. The failure of the Department of Corrections to abide by or even attempt to align “suggested” and determined manning to prevail makes each facility hazardous to inmates and staff alike. With this said, it stands to reason that when the State of Alaska, Department of Corrections allows a known hazard to exist and persist, while a risk assessment has been accomplished and given to the State of Alaska in the form of a “CGL Analysis”, the state had been placed on notice (CGL, 2016). To combat this continued hazard, it is proposed that every event that an Officer is “Held Over”, “Ordered into Mandatory Overtime”, “Refused a Requested Leave”, or “Ordered to work on a shift that is Undermanned according to the CGL Analysis”, the Premium Pay that will include “Hazard Pay” will be calculated for every hour worked in that
Davis specifies that the lack of accountability for inappropriate behavior is caused by faulty administrative action as she explains, “Grievance or investigatory procedures, where they exist, are often ineffectual...” (78). Since women’s prisons were established, sexual abuse has been used as a form of punishment, although this is not formally acknowledged by prison officials, it is undeniable that women’s prison staff more than oftentimes engage in sexual
In Small Island, Hortense is ridiculed in London by the host society for her aspirations despite being a Black woman. Hortense trained as a teacher in Jamaica and ‘was the talk of the college for several weeks.’ Hortense’s privileged upbringing is a reflection of her high hopes for England and the educational advantages she feels she will be entitled to in Britain. Although, Hortense is well-respected feelings of superiority often interject Hortense’s outlook on the opportunities available to her in Britain. Thus, she is alienated in the British educational system due to institutionalised racism and nowhere will hire her because she is black.
Introduction The need for more prisons is not really a need. I am not in favor of the there being more prisons built in this world. Serving time in prison is supposed to be as unpleasant as possible. I am also not in favor of prisoners being mistreated by other inmates and or facility staff members.
That sounds crazy but it's true because when people go to prison they want to be guaranteed safety. The officers can provide that most of the time. Because ”Officials could not be relied on to protect prisoners" Most of us have wives and kids or grandkids" exclaims one. "Are you going to risk your life by stepping in front of a knife when you have one lousy piece of shit trying to kill another lousy piece of shit?" (Skarbek).
One of the most interesting aspects of this map is the settlement pattern. Dartmoor was a densely settled area – in this area alone there are approximately twenty to thirty settlements, with varying numbers of huts. These sites vary in both physical size and concentration, evoking various potential theories why the settlements vary so much. Their physical size could be down to something as menial as a constraint on where they can build, or their ability to build such a structure. The density of the settlement, however, could indicate either a small, isolated group, or a large group, packed together that was likely to be closer knit.
Provide training to all prison staff on mental health issues. Training should reinforce staff understanding of mental disorders, raise awareness on human rights, challenge stigmatizing attitudes and encourage mental health promotion for guards and inmates. In addition, prison health workers need more specialized skills to identify and manage the prisoners’ mental health. According to HM Prison Probation & Service (2018), prison staff ‘keep those sentenced to prison in custody, helping them lead law-abiding and useful lives, both while they are in prison and after they are released.’ It believes that prison staff will play a huge part in the life of an offender, helping them to learn and develop new skills (HM Prison Probation & Service,
In order to do this they need to make new centers to help prisoners inside better themselves. In Alabama prisons may soon shut down 14 of its prisons for overcrowding, neglect, and violence in the state’s correction systems. In the prison St. Clair Holman in Alabama the prison system makes prisoners act different. There is no safety, security or supervision. “We have people being killed, sexually assaulted, raped, stabbed on daily basis at St. Clair, Holman, and multiple facilities; it’s a systemwide problem,” said Charlotte Morrison, a senior attorney at the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), which represents Alabama prisoner.”
