To all the people who feel sooo terrible about this incident and others I would just like to say that when you only hear one side of the story it is usually the side you start beleiving. I work in the Federal System and let me tell you, we are scrutenized for everything we do. We have no rights as staff and my simple solution is, let em out. Everyone complains when their families are torn apart by rapist, murderers, drug dealers, child molestors and every other kind of criminal on the street but when they hear he only gets 2 eggs and a hot dog bun for lunch all the sudden their hearts bleed. Get with it people. Do you wanna watch these guys with nothing more than a radio and a set of hand cuffs? Where all of us work in a building filled with 200-300 inmates to one staff member. At any time we can be assaulted and killed so no problem right? We signed up for it right? Yes we did. Because not a lot of people will. My firm beleif is that SOME of these inmates private prisons and others can be rehabilitated, but most wanna get out and keep gang banging. They tell us that. And if a staff member gets 30 stitches in his face from an inmate who doesnt take his meds and we cant force them, then so be it. But that is the truth. They are not a big sac of puppies. Most have had a hundred chances to abide by our laws and CHOOSE not to. Lets be real. Watch the news once in a while and you will see the world is not what it used to be. Tweakers are taking over, kids are killin each other, that is if they will put down their phones long enough. Im sure the jails in latin america are a lot nicer. By the way the local resources used to protect the public around the prisons is also paid by the staff members at ALL prisons. Its called taxes.
