AS AN EX INMATE IN THE GEORGIA D.O.C.. I WILL BE THE FIRST TO ADMIT THAT A LARGE PART OF THE INMATES ARE NOT TRYING TO USE THE TOOLS AFFORED BY THE STAFF , BUT THERE ARE MANY THAT ARE AND THESE SHOULD NOT BE GROUPED TOGETHER.THERE ARE SOME GOODD PROGRAMS AND IF THE STAFF TRYED TO DO THERE BEST THESE INMATES WOULD BE FOUND. I HAVE BEEN OUT OF PRISON NOW ALMOST 1 YEAR. IS THAT CHANGE? YOU BE THE JUDGE.

The vast majority of violence is inmate on inmate, first, then inmate on staff second. The fantasy is that prison is filled with men who are just trying to be better people and rehabilitate themselves. Nothing could be further from the the truth. Inmates are more psychopathic than ever and attack staff and each other because the only thing that will happen to them, in most cases, is that they will be given a disciplinary report and locked down for a few weeks. They don’t fear this. In the old days, there was more order because violent men who ignored the rules of society learned to obey the nightstick but now these same violent, predatory men have nothing to genuinely deter their behavior. Most people would be sickened to know what the men who raped their wives and molested their children are allowed to get away with.

I want to know what can be done a prison violance in the state of GA. The prison are so short of officers, but the system covers this up on paper work myself and many officers have seen this first hand it is mostly Officers beating inmates and the wardens letting it go on when they get good officers that go by the book they fire them, or tell lies and the the officer fired we have seen this and we have pages of this information we have tryed to do things right if a officer gets hurt on the job they fire them the prisons where curtain wardens have worked these wardens push the officer so hard that they do not know who would back them most the time when a fight breaks out you get more help form the inmates than you do the officers I want to here back from someone so we will know what to do.
