Stories of a Correctional Officer

This book tells the story of my career in the American penal system as a Correctional Officer, Juvenile Correctional Officer, Transport Officer, and Jailer. Section One enumerates some of the stories of working in a federal prison with 2,200 Inmates.

This section tells the story of what happens with officers in a prison. Section Two describes the problems inmates have - usually problems caused by other inmates. Section Three deals with inmate - transportation problems.

I transported inmates in a bus, a van and a sedan. Section Four addresses problems in a juvenile facility with 250 inmate's young men living in confinement and close quarters. Section Five describes problems I encountered in the County Jail working as a Jailer, Transport Officer, and Sergeant.

Additionally, I worked as a Court House Jailer
