I am here to secure them and keep them safe and alive not to judge them and dehumanize them like some officers do.

    Thank you so much for sharing this. I am currently researching prison environments as a part of my thesis and have been visiting the insides of prisons, namely Rikers Corrections. I seem to be coming to the same conclusions about the behaviors of inmates and officers alike. First of all, there are people serving time in these prisons who has committed crimes, although, they are technically not textbook criminals. The problem is, they become a part of the criminal melting pot. Secondly, I cannot wrap my head around why people would hold prisoners who are locked down in cages, to the high standard of normal behavior. If people are treated like savages, then.........!

    Any older Rikers Island correction officers reading this, ask around about an officer named Ruth(Bambi/Banny) Bancroft. In the 70's she instituted the inmate rock gardening program and the creative writing program. When she retired from Corrections in the 80's, she never stopped wanting to help people prosper. Even though she never received or sought any publicity for what she accomplished throughout her life, she was one of the finest humans to ever walk this earth. She was my mother. Blessings to all.

    Genuine question. I have a retired C.O neighbor and I've asked him the same thing. Why and how did you become interested in this career? Can't be the money, because I'm sure as you are aware, there are higher paying jobs for much less stress. Benefits? Job security? A former C.O once told me that many of his colleagues got into heavy drinking, many were divorced had trouble trusting people outside of work and so on. Don't take it as a knock on you career choice, but I am genuinely curious.

I'm from California and I don't think C.Os make over a 100K though out here. Unless they're doing a ton of over time or they're in a senior position. Just seems like a really big mental and emotional sacrifice that comes with the job. As I said in my previous comment, there certainly has to be a less stressful and easier way to make a good living.

However, the Stanford experiment is based on a setting where there is a position of power with no rules, that's why there are Corrections Regulations Acts in my country to set out regulations and policies. Also, there are character and psychological assessments in placed during the recruiting process to make sure correctional branches hire the right people. I also understand that there are private prisons in the US where their sole purpose is to make money, which is the sole reason why it gives us CO a bad name. Luckily that's not the case in my country and I can say that most CO's I know are there to do the job properly.

    I remember when my Dad (RIP) was laid off from the NYPD in the 70's and the NYCDOC hired him and a lot of other laid off cops. Think he said he worked in HDM which I think is known as JATC today. The stress level was so high during that time. And so understaffed, telling me basically it was just himself and another CO w/240 inmates to watch. He would come home after an 8 hr or 16 hr tour of duty and we knew to just let him unwind for about an hr.

    What does this has to do with how korey was treated by the guard there because it was one guard who should be held accountable his corrupt and wicked action . As someone stated they're not going to exposed what's really going on by some of the bad guards who work there !!!

    I'll be starting a 3 week training as a C.O 1 next week. I want to help the inmates better their lives the best I am able.

    He seems like a great CO- authoritative but friendly-the type of staff that makes prison bearable. I Commend this man because there is a lot of corrupt and mean COs out there that do more harm than good- he seems to actually care about the inmates

    "Regular day at the office"? Yea right. More like, regular day in hell. I know many people that couldn't do corrections more than just a few years.

    Is Rikers a Prison or a Jail ? Because THAT Looks More Like a Prison Than a Jail.
