Former Correctional Officer explains who REALLY runs the Prisons!

[@chrisleach4245]

My dad was a corrections officer for 23 years and he told me that the inmates could take over the prison at anytime. Holding the prison is a different story all together!

[@LuxuryBeatsMusic]

yeah but they separate themselves and make "OPPS" or "Enemies" so they'll never get together and tear that fence down and storm out of the doors LOL Too much ego, not enough bigger perspective.

[@holdingcopsaccountable6554]

The cell. That’s until squad comes and take to out of it. California prison have less blind spots with lots of gun towers. Real bullets.

[@kobe4266]

Hey man I just heard that COs have one of the highest divorce rates, did ur mom and dad ever divorce? I'm only asking cause I remember when I was in highschool these COs from Chino Prison came for career day but they didn't mention high divorce rates shit is fucked up

[@Verticalblackcowboy]

The same on slave plantations

[@themaskedlawstudent]

I've been working behind the Walls for years. My policy is... Keep 2 eyes on the inmates and 3 eyes on the staff members because it will be the staff members that will most likely get you.

[@joaquinvega8638]

Facts. That’s why I left. Administration was taking our tools away as officers, and officers began turning on each other. Still got homies who work there, but I knew what was coming

How will they “get you”?

[@giovannirobison123]

Great interview. He seems like a good guy . I went to juvenile corrections in idaho when i was 15 and the guards taught us how to be men and it made me want to be a good man. Im still in contact with some and im thankful we have men like this to be a role model for my generation.

[@balthazarbratt8194]

sounds like they have a good juvenile offender program. In Los Angeles California it was a shit show. The system just made the kids worse. Unless you got extremely lucky and went to a place like you described.

[@giovannirobison123]

@@balthazarbratt8194 from what I have heard its one of the best facilities in the nation for juvenile offender rehabilitation. Idaho isn't nearly as dangerous as cali so its a lot easier to do good out here if you want.

[@Silence-and-Violence]

​@balthazarbratt8194 yeah I hate making excuses for people that are unwarranted but CA YA is a disgusting system that seems to make or at least let kids get worse.

Some channels just haven’t got the skills to do long form interviews. Some channels haven’t caught on the popularity of those conversations either. It’s basically a podcast with video. Tell me what’s the difference between Rogan and if Herc rapped with this dude for 3 hrs? Nothing

[@TheSports_Line]

“We went away and nobody left the youngsters the playbook.” Damn. Felt that

[@RSD22.]

That encapsulates the degradation of todays society. Good catch Corey

[@Ibrahim-vr8rm]

The play book the "OG's" had was terrible though. It lead to long sentences and death for them.

[@Hurcules98]

Great interview big Herc.. I been following LT Bravo since he started his “ prison Guard” channel.. great dude. Hands down to both you all for doing what you do.?? Keep pushing that positivity .!!

[@FlexWheeler2nd]

Someone in my family used to work for the county jail and the stories he had already told me jail ain’t for ANYONE to go to. We have no other choice but to raise our children to have goals and vision for higher in life. Too many kids aren’t being raised at all and are following the streets, which I either leads to jail or to the coffin. And NO ONE in social media, news media, anywhere cares. No one’s calling out lack of parenting, no one’s calling out lack of morals and having self-control. It’s easy to incite riots and looting over small things, but no one wants to call people out on the real things. Those things require each of us to look ourselves in the mirror and be real.

[@jeffmiller3499]

But they can call people out for being anti semitic or anti vax or racist or whatever non stop, almost always being false. Latest example is woody harrelson. Instantly like 77 articles calling him an anti vaxxer blah blah blah. It's pathetic and embarrassing.

[@jeffmiller3499]

But you're right man. No one cares about almost anything that matters anymore. Just obsessed with the DUMBEST shit ever

[@MK_ULTRA420]

"No one’s calling out lack of parenting" Of course not when western nations are still overpopulated. This is Darwinism at work and the government knows it.

[@YellowPaint100]

So start with yourself! You called it out here, so call it out in real life convo too. Ghandi said "we must be the change we want to see in the world". And this was way back in the 1930's & 40's. It applies today too!

[@theempireofjudah9315]

They promote and applaud single mother hood. Because the courts and prisons make millions upon millions of dollars from their offspring.

[@ejburton610]

This is a great interview, alot of kids have definitely been running around wild, it's almost like taking the children away from their parents when their parents were keeping them in line and they start doing crazy things

[@travisketchum5223]

When you work in a prison you are doing time with the inmates. I have never met a CDCR officer that wasn't wound tighter than new bolts on a bridge. Also, there is a HUGE rate of divorce for these people. Hardest job out there....by far.

[@runningkirkwa2934]

Probably is a very stressful job

[@wtf1231122]

Why is it so high?

[@jeffmiller3499]

New bolts on a bridge lol that's fkn TIGHT. Idk I knew COs that had cake jobs, barely did anything just getting a check. Especially all the level 1. But even the higher levels, it sucks more, but they're also locked down almost all the time so. Definitely depends what prison & what pod or whatever but. I don't think you can say the hardest. it's not making the easy list tho that's for sure.

[@MK_ULTRA420]

Switching to Panopticon prisons would fix that problem but then the guards would complain about not getting enough hours.

[@evilearthego5256]

Definitely not the hardest job out there. By far.

[@texas_trill_guy_5677]

I've been a CO at a maximum security juvenile prison for 3 years 13 years total, and based on what I've experienced so far, I won't allow anyone to get behind me. Nor will I sit anywhere near the middle of any restaurant. I'm always sitting at the back of the restaurant, closest to the door. I also keep my protection with me at all times. It's weird because even people I've never met a clearly aware that I have protection on me.

Nice episode Herc. Props! Never seen you avoid eye contact like in this video.

[@6nosis]

It’s a mannerism which humans do when they are recalling memories. He never avoided eye contact. He was trying pull deep memories from subconscious to full awareness.

[@Slim_Ch4rles]

that's a goofy thing to point out. Herc always looks off to the side when he's locked into a topic. Almost every person does this in some way too, it is a form of recollection and introspection commonly known as a "1000 yard stare". This isn't exclusively attributed to people with severe PTSDv
