I worked for the California state system, starting as a Correctional Officer and retiring as a Lieutenant in 2005. I now write for the PacoVilla blog which is concerned with what could broadly be called The Correctional System.
That would be up to your employer. If he were in the state prison system it would be highly problematic. They do not allow immediate family to work at a facility where a family member is housed without a waiver from the Secretary of the Dept. of Corrections. You would have to check with your agency about their policy. Of course, if they don't know about the relationship now your inquiry will let them know about it and they might transfer him, or you. As far as I know they can't prevent you from marrying him, but they can prevent you from working at a facility where he is housed. Short answer is yes, it would probably be an issue.

Sorry but no, I can't. I have been out of the system for 12 years now and I have zero information on it. I am GUESSING that it is a halfway-house type environment for prisoners who are nearly at their release date or who are in fact out on some form of supervised conditional release, but that is only an educated guess.

If the relationship was consensual it might be difficult. If not you might be able to read body language or pick up on other clues. Observational skills are important. Simply separating them, i.e. changing jobs or housing, will sometimes do the job. Tossing the aggressor into segregation pending investigation will also often deal with the trouble, at least short term.

I don't know for sure but my guess is YES, assuming you clear the psych of course. Whether you WILL be called for the December academy is another matter. I don't know how quickly they fill up, what the last-minute no-show rate is or any of that stuff any more. In any event, congrats, premature though that may be

I see question marks. I don't see any question. Not my field of expertise anyway.
Share Answer: 
Sorry, but I don't see a question there. Hard to respond without a question to respond to.

Call medical. Get injured inmate out of the cell and get medical attention. Do a detailed body search of both inmates. Check especially for damaged knuckles and defensive wounds. File appropriate report. Refer to supervisor for possible Ad Seg placement.
