Every morning we wake up to go to breakfast at 4:30 and last night was no different. We woke up, went to chow, and came back. When we got back, everybody’s stuff was torn up and thrown all over the place.That’s not really unusual, but this time a lot of people got their cigarettes taken by the CO even though we’re allowed to have them. Just as everybody was making their beds again, one of the COs came walking through smoking the inmates’ cigarettes. You might ask ‘Well how do you know that he was smoking theirs?’ I know because he said so.
He passed my room and went to the cell next to mine and asked him “What would you do for your cigarettes?” He replied, “What do you want me to do Sir?” So the CO made him sing the Barney theme song out loud, then made him sing the YMCA song – but instead of saying “Y..M..C..A,” he had to sing “Y Am I Gay!”
Then for the next two hours, he sat one cell over messing with that man over every little thing, so I couldn’t sleep the whole time. Then after he was finally through, he refused to turn the lights off so we could go to sleep.
These COs here just love to come to work to make you mad.
I got to be honest – he was kinda funny for the first five minutes, but he got real old, real fast.
i find it very sad that the behaviour of these correction officers is tolerated by management.
ReplyDeletealso, it sounds like the guy was bored, he needed to spice up his day a bit.
This behavior SHOULD NOT be tolerated, at ALL, period.
ReplyDeleteIt is sick, twisted and sadistic and not people that I want wearing an American Falg, while performing their 'jobs'.
They take pleasure in the power and control and inflicting pain and suffering. That is the mindset of someone you want BEHIND the bars, not running the jail...
