Ask a Correctional Officer anything

455 Questions

Last Answer on February 10, 2022

Was there anyone you felt bad for in prison? Maybe someone who was just having a rough patch, someone who you did not think deserved to be in prison, someone who you thought or was innocent, or any other reason? Why or why not?

Asked by John over 5 years ago

The only one I felt even a little bit sorry for was a young fellow who was more than a little mentally deficient who had been manipulated by a older girl to kill a younger girl so the younger girl could not testify against the father in a child rape case. Other than that, not really. It is VERY HARD to get into prison. Almost nobody goes to the joint the first time around.

Have you ever been offered a bribe? What did you do? How often this this happen and did anyone actually take it. I hear it happens all the time inmates will pay them enough and their like “I don’t get paid enough for this” and take it and get caught

Asked by Kale over 5 years ago

I was never offered a bribe. Not once. Various staff members have been caught for dealing with prisoners. Mostly smuggling cigarettes or cell phones. It is very dangerous because too many people find out about it and eventually you will get caught. Then you get fired and probably prosecuted. .

Is it true that people who say are child molesters, rapists, murders, people who do really bad things are beaten, raped, and treated horribly versus people who are in on drug charges and other things that aren’t the end of the world so to speak

Asked by Kyle over 5 years ago

Used to be VERY common in "the old days." Now there are so many child molesters and general purpose sex offenders locked up in relation to the general population the other convicts would spend all day thumping on them and never get anything else done.

I am not a huge fan of C&W but I do like his voice. Kind of like smooth whiskey.

Keep a eye out I think there is a troll asking questions. Watch for the same writing styles, outrageous stories, asking the same questions over and over again, posting links, asking dumb and irrelevant questions, among other non sense.

Are felonies and misdemeanor people share the same prison cell in Maryland

Asked by Sel over 5 years ago

NO idea. Never been there. In most states there are legal problems with housing misdemeanants and felons together.
