We will discuss some of the reason why correctional professional have relationship with inmates. Or are they looking for love or is it about having power over the inmates. Also why do the inmates do it and the consequent and danger than put fellow co-worker, staff member in by doing this kind of acting with inmates. When correctional officer breaks the ethical code, such as relationships with inmates this type of offense is taken very seriously. Not only is it a violation of the law, policies and procedures, but it puts the safety of all people in the correctional facility at risk.
Under these slap and grab techniques extreme physical violence against prisoners and ‘torture’ are deemed illegal under national and international law, including the Geneva Convention, less physical techniques are often used by interrogators. A number of slaps and grabs are often used by interrogators and these include; the attention grab, which involves continuous shirt pulling; the attention slap, which, as the name suggests, is an open-handed slap to a part of the body and the belly slap; again, as the name suggests this is a slap to the belly. These techniques used will cause pain and scare the prisoners, but they do not produce long term effects (NatGeo 2). The next form of interrogation is the sensory bombardment. This form of torture can have a significant impact on the prisoner’s mental state.
Violating a person in such a way is horrible, cruel and it can lead to severe physiological problems of the victim. Rape is not beneficial to society and it is not agreed upon by both parties, but instead forced upon on the one not in agreement. Rape is not only with women, but also with children and men. There are those who specifically target women because they know they can overpower them if they need to in order to get their way. Children or minors may lack the judgment needed for valid consent.
The movement for prisoners' rights is based on the principle that prisoners, even though they are deprived of liberty, are still entitled to basic human rights. Advocates for prisoners' rights argue that they are often deprived of very basic human rights, with the cooperation of the prison authorities. Alleged violations often include: • Prison authorities turning a blind eye to assault or rape of prisoners, failing to take sufficient steps to protect prisoners from assault or rape, or even allegedly arranging for prisoners to be assaulted or raped by other inmates as a form of punishment (see prisoner rape) • Providing insufficient treatment for serious medical conditions • Refusing freedom of expression, to read materials, and communicate (particularly in cases of foreign languages in prisons) • Punishing prisoners who raise complaints about bad conditions • Taking away prisoners' rights to sue prison officials or governments for maltreatment, or to receive compensation for injuries caused by the negligence of prison authorities. • Depriving inmates of freedom of religion. • Blockading inmates rights to legal materials and access to the courts.
" This is a dangerous aspect of the three strikes law, reducing the courts power to consider individual circumstances could lead to unnecessarily long prison sentences for some but on the other hand will ensure hardened criminals don’t get off easy. Overall Shicor concludes that the three strikes law results in inefficient and unpredictable outcomes but I believe those results have more to do with the current construction of our legal
He explains the fear he felt when he heard the term since he was homosexual himself. He felt threatened and targeted immediately upon hearing this word. In time he realized the teenagers using the word did not even notice his existence. It was then Jonathan realized that it is not the prejudice words that are dangerous; it is the violence the stereotyped to represent. Jonathan explains that the time and energy wasted on sorting out these various contexts and then trying to eliminate the words takes away from actually eliminating physical violence and criminals.
I show how these rigged rules are dangerous because they negatively impact the accuracy of terrorism investigations. The CSRT and military commissions actually foster the gathering of false confessions and other false information from suspected prisoners, which can mislead investigators. Part of the problem is the aforementioned fact that coercive interrogation techniques are applied to prisoners who lack relevant knowledge of terrorism. There are other problems as well. A system designed to help the government win its cases can lead investigators to apply less rigor than they would need to win in a regular court system.
His failings include the real value of imprisonment, the false hood of the risk of being raped or murdered; the simple reality that the author fails to see is that violence promotes more violence. As humans we need to stop the violence at all cost, in our schools, in our work place, etc. Flogging or horse-whipping publicly will not do that. We as human beings need not to revert back to Puritan times as Jacoby suggest, but to find answer to control the overcrowding we have in our prison today and to help those that are coming out of the prisons to make sure they stay
March 2, 2012 Violent Behavior Response Daryll Mitchell University pf Phoenix Violent behavior in prisons is any behavior which, through it's use or intended use, causes or could cause harm to another individual. There are many theories on how to control violent behavior in prison, but the ones that seem to have the most success involve segregating the violent individuals away from the rest of the population. This option is very expensive, does nothing to prepare the inmate for re-entry into society, and is only partially successful at limiting the violence of these inmates. Instead of preying on inmates in general population, they now turn their violent tendencies on each other, and the staff. Unethical behavior
Should the Parole System be abolished? Timothy P Ostin 0458935 TESC November 2010 ENC 102-OL014 Research Paper In its current state, the U.S. parole system is flawed and truly causes more harm than good. Abolishing parole is absolutely necessary for the safety and well being of the community of law abiding citizens that inmates are released to live amongst, as well as the best opportunity for offenders to rehabilitate so that reintegration is ultimately more successful. Most people believe that the parole system is not only corrupt, but inherently unjust…making it seemingly contradictory to the foundation upon which the system was initially built, the justice system. While the decision to abolish parole is a controversial one,
