My husband worked in corrections as an officer for five years. He always treated the inmates with respect whereas some didn’t. One night he was in the gym and told an inmate to stop throwing the ball so that it would go up and hit the lights. All my husband had for protection was a radio and a flashlight. That inmate came over and got all up on him threatening him. The other inmates came and formed a circle around him until help came. They told him they always had his back. The other thing was, we’d be in Walmart or somewhere and person that had been in there, more than a few times, would see us and start talking to him and telling him how they were doing and thanked him for what a good guy he was to them. I’m proud of him. He’s a really good guy with a good heart.

[@karenhough806]

Well it depends on what the “mistake” is, because if someone is a child rapist how can you call that a mistake?

[@nikeaodowdeveningstar1938]

Yes I can call that a mistake, not everyone is a psychopath, some people are victims of their own twisted childhood trauma, which thus in turn makes their brain dyfunction. Either way being a survivor of some stupid shit myself, I always believe the universe, or God as most call it forgives all who seek it, which at the time I'd like to hope they realize that asking forgiveness means that they know it was wrong and get help for such a mental disorder and not keep doing terrible things. I'd be a terrible hypocrite if I only believed the universe forgives sins that are only kinda a mistake. It's not an easy way of thinking, but I am also glad I do not have the heavy task of judging others, I just wanna always help those on the wrong path, correct where they went wrong. And maybe since I am a survivor of some heavy sex shit myself, I find I have a very unique way of looking at things. I would actually like to meet those people who have sexually did me wrong, so that I could let them know that I forgive them, and maybe help each other with our broken souls, or shoot them if they are not sorry and still do bad things. . . . I like to have faith that not all people who do bad things are just evil, some deeds are done because other people hurt them and it's a terrible cycle.

[@awesome7732]

yeah, depending on their crime and mental state not all criminals or inmates are bad people, I met my fair share of people who went to jail here in HK and not all of them are bad, I heard they will even mess with people who did bad stuff like taking picture of women's under their skirt or something, but mostly they seem nice and here in HK the officers treat you nicely if you aren't a trouble maker, but once they are out they are just normal people too, some get arrested for small things like a fight or other mistakes like drugs or stealing, but not all are psychopaths that murder and rape, those are the minority.

youd be amazed how much the respect means to people who are locked up. First of all its a place where respect is the #1 currency so to speak , the more respect you give the more you get. You dont disrespect another man in there. When i was locked the inmates who treated us like humans really stood out, ive always supported law enforcement and even wanted to be a LEO until i was arrested for making the wrong choices. Unfortunately i learned majority are what i call robo cops, they treat you like you just killed a baby or something. But then there was the ones who didnt act like we were anything less then them, those are the ones who wed stick our neck out to help if the situation arose. A guy i was locked with actually helped a cop (we have sheriffs guard our jails) when he was jumped on out of nowhere by some jcat inmate. Cause of that he got out months early, they actually tell us that if we help a guard in a way like that well get a time cut. The unfortunate thing though is that most the other inmates will not allow you to do that, in california we have some serious politics and you cant even go ask a guard for toilet paper without another person going with you. Luckily the guy who helped was bigger then me andim 6'4 220+ so no one was really gonna buck up and try to do anything to the guy cause they know theyd get rocked.

I was a prison officer and I can attest that most of the time they aren't bad people, they made bad decisions. Their background can be wildly varied, but the main thing to remember is to treat them as people and respect them. I stood up in front of the governor a few times to testify on an inmates behalf if I felt they were being unfairly accused of rule breaking, or they were peripheral to an incident. I've been caught in a couple of riots and had inmates let me out of the area so I didn't get hurt because "He's one of the good ones guys". It wasn't my place to judge them on their crimes, that was done by the courts. Treat people with respect and fairness and you never know when it will be returned to you when you need it most.

I think that this world isn't fair, and it's fine that way. A single person's opinions do not shape the others, it's the other way around.

Sure, they all (most likely; unguilty & imprisoned is a bad existing combination though, too) did commit crimes, but that rarely roots in bad attitude and malicious intents. In prison, most people end up there due to crimes like: > Theft/Burglary/Robbery out of desperation, maybe even due to having ended up in a real dead end scenario where that crime was their only option available. > Mayhem/Violence, mostly happening in the affect of an emotional escalation (which is often the result of misbehavior on both sides of the field). > Any crime under the circumstance of loss of control due to intoxication(s). > [...] I'm not trying to pardon and annulate these people's crimes, not trying to explain why they should be seen as innocent or any such. They still are responsible. They did misbehave. Most of the time we are not in control of the circumstances that guide us through our day, though. Some unexpected coincidence/misfortune here; some light-hearted/inattentive decision there. Suddenly, cracking noises as we watch the whole ground crumbling off. Could have been me, could have been you. Could have been anyone and of course anyone could claim beforehand he would never misbehave like this and would never do anything like that while still ending up between this and that. The guys in the video know that, too. They didn't try to appease themselves in any kind of way or anything like that, but neither were they monsters before, nor did they become monsters afterwards.

@ilikebacon No,.. recognizing that someone did the right thing in a life altering moment is not treating them like a child. The apprecation is not required nor should it be expected. That doesn't mean any praise/recognition is off the table. That's what other decent ppl would naturally do when hearing about this.... & I'm specifically pointing out not letting it go too far, as ppl tend to do w/ children.😉

The three men, during the interview, seemed quietly happy - rightly - that, for once, they were in the spotlight for something good they did, not for the bad thing they did that made them inmates, the bad thing they did that they looks at them in the face each time they wake up. I was especially touched with what the last man said. In the photo, he had his chest out and and a small smile, maybe he was thinking about his family seeing this in the news, his mother his daughter, seeing something good in him. Whatever his thoughts were, I'm happy to have come across a part of his story.

[@Patrick.Weightman]

Do jails still do close pop? This looks kinda like it YEARS ago in the 90s or around, there were a few states that did a type of open population jails called close pop or something. You'd have 1-2 guards assigned to 20-30 different inmates, who would all sit in the same room the whole day, totally free with no bars or protection besides their glocks and walkies. Sounds incredibly dangerous by today's standards but the guards and inmates usually ended up becoming close with one another and would play cars or dominoes with them, tell jokes, what have you. I thought the program was closed because there were more guards smuggling contraband as a result but idk
