So this is odd but I recently got out of HDSP after doing a 12-36 month sentence. This occurred in December 2021 and I was working in the kitchen when it happened. The CO’s ran into the kitchen and started to yell to get into the changing hall and stop everything we were doing. The radios were going crazy and they wouldn’t tell us what was going on but we proceeded to change and go into lockdown for 3 days. The word of the riot got over quickly and I could actually see the cop cars and ambulance’s down the hill when it was happening. The riot was a sit down gone wrong that and many of the rioters were transferred to HDSP. Btw anyone commenting about the AC: yes, the ac goes out- usually in the summer. And in the winter the heat goes out so we take cold showers LOL

Investigating officer conduct? Not what started the riot? Sounds like the state and department of corrections is looking to blame staff for mismanagement of prisons! Maybe hold the wardens and director accountable!!

All those need to be shut down I don't even have a criminal record. And I've been getting officer misconduct all my life

How'd they open their cells from the inside exactly?

That should be a shoot to kill situation...no questions asked

Just imagine if it was the whole prison in on it.

Chances are their AC was busted and COs didn't get it fixed in a timely manner. Enough of a reason for inmates to riot.

Yeah. Just like "Listen. It's NOT A PRISON. IT IS A CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION" Bullshit.

I think that Anarchy might be around the corner soon???? That's where we might be headed! Watch out rich people????

If the public knew 10% of what prison was really like,I doubt they would send people there,but last documentary I watched said 60 % of people in prison were non violent drug offenders or some kinda drug offense, I forgot. Yes some people deserve prison,I'm just saying I wish the public really understood the truth about the whole prison system.

you know, a prison guard can easily use tear gas, bullets.

Wow a employee was called in from Sick Day, must of been bad

I’ve been to SDCC and I personally know them Co’s treat inmate like shit even the program inmate get it to so…. 🤷🏾‍♂️

So the green hexigons lined up and so did the white dots. So why didn't the green hexigons use different tactics to quell what the white dots were doing?

Low pay. Over crowding .. what ya expect ?

Daaaaam this officer is hella cool. Yeah I was there. He was transport. And was always a respectful person..... No matter what anyone says. Not all officers are a-holes who want to kill for fun or beat down inmates. And some criminals do fully change.

What city is this jail in or near. Does anybody know if it's I. Jean Nevada

Shawshank redemption?🧐🤔

Business as usual 😸

SHUT it DOWN

I’m tired of misdeeds being hidden and real solutions never being utilized!

What?

I welcome you to America. "Land of the free".

Why had the prison not already sent some of these people to higher security prisons or split them up and transferred them away from each other? That guy in the photo they showed of the leader looks a lot like a guy they showed being brought into court after a couple of them murdered that kid while in the prison a couple years ago. Prison officials were well aware these gang members belonged in a maximum security prison.

Adopt the EL SALVADOR MODEL

Not hardly Byrd ...

No prison is ran safely for staff or inmates the short staff hurts both the do a walk through every couple hours and it's open to do anything to each other till he does the next time they do a walk through they don't watch the camera and come help if you get jumped you are on your own better learn to scrap real quick or your in serious danger

Institutions funded by taxpayer dollars must be compelled when necessary to provide answers to their “bosses” which is We the People. Unbelievable.

Maybe Jon Koppenhaver started it. That year 2050 parole date isn't looking good to him.

They make it sound bad to be called in on a sick day hes getting double time so 40 bucks an hr or more

FOIL ALL INFORMATION FOR TIME PERIODS AND DATES IN QUESTION FOR EVERYTHING INVOLVED WITH TAXPAYER FUNDS!!

Omgggggggg 😳

The state keeps pampering this inmates and then are surprised when this happens.

What I simply had my parallel and the FBI removed wardens for conspiracy of the Rico act with Marian ghan and the sommerdyke,, Lamb's, enis and Chuck Charles enis of classic motors los Angeles and his daughter,,

What you do is eliminate the inmates. That’s how the prison problem is solved. Most inmates have long arrest records and it’s a revolving door. Get rid of them.

Talk about the media and this union member making a mountain out of a mole hill. Stuff like this happens all the time in U.S. Penitentiaries across the country. It's reported as a "disturbance" because it happens more often than the general public thinks. Rather than accuse prison folks of doing something wrong, aim your anger at convicts who continue to act like scum and place no value on their life or of others. I can't tell you how many times this happened at Leavenworth during my career.

This is a bunch of lies😂😂😂😂😂 really? the inmates started a fire 🔥 they had shanks ?? And unlocked their own cells from the inside?? Stop lying please.. reasons why they don't want to show the videos ..y'all need a news report that bad huh smh

Rptr sounds like she's having bowel movements....

Matatan.(".🤔."). Ribirin HS, M™®™R No. Doubt. Yes,

Start applying ECT to all prisoners houses at that prison and other prisons with that problem

Seems their intimidated by the way people react to their hatred to people who have the right to live their life

Lol

I need to take away the prisoners guns that's the problem! You can see right? The guns are the problem 😕

And our President and political branch will just sit on their azzes!! Just like on most things and topics and doings!!!!

I'm from New Zealand lol🤭

I bet you was scarred because of all the shit y’all do and treat people in there .

They tired the inmates they still humans God go judge us ok get the trash out ur eyes first ok

Thank Biden !

Too bad none of the officers have to wear them little black patches over their badges... What a shame n waste of a perfectly good prison riot

SEEMS LIKE THE OFFICERS AND OTHER STAFF PROVOKED D INMATES..WHY ELSE WOULD THEY NOT DO INTERVIEWS OR RELEASE VIDEO

BULLETS!!!
