One thing that really annoyed me about OITNB is that the guards watched the females shower. For one they stand outside theyre not allowed to watch even in max. Second ONLY FEMALE GUARDS ARE ALLOWED TO DO SHOWERS. If a male guard sees you naked or strip searches you the female inmate can have a PREA case. Which is the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) means to law enforcement preventing sexual assault and harassment of arrestees by employees and preventing sexual assault of arrestees by other arrestees. Which has been in effect since 2003.

Yeah, a lot of people think that slavery is illegal in america, because no one ever bothers to properly read the 13th amendment. Or if they do read it, they stop abruptly after reading that "Slavery and involuntary servitude is abolished," completely ignoring the rest of the sentence that reads "excepting as a punishment for a crime of which the guilty party has been convicted." Now that's paraphrased slightly, but it's in no way misrepresentative. If you read the 13th amendment to the U.S. constitution, you can see for yourself that slavery is actually legal in the usa. If you've been convicted of a crime in the usa, it is perfectly legal for you to be condemned to slavery/ involuntary servitude. The usa is one of the only, maybe the ONLY advanced nation in the entire world where slavery is still legal!!!

Yeah, the problem with this video is it mixes in "stuff about prison life no one thinks about" with "moral outrage" arguments. Being unable to shave your legs regularly is inconvenient but not on the same level as being denied care for a yeast infection. And it leaves out some important context. For every prisoner who has to suffer a yeast infection, how many other stories are there of prisoners who actually do pretend to be sick in order to get out of work, annoy the guards, steal stuff from the medical wards, etc. They make it sound like it's just the guards being cruel, but that isn't always the case. I'd love to see some actual prison guards weigh in with the other side of the story.

The problem is warning shots are not considered self defense. That's misuse of a firearm at a minimum. Shooting the guy would have had a better outcome for her. Did she know where her warning shot would go? She could have shot someone else by mistake. That's super dangerous. There are lots of stories you can look up about people getting jail time for warning shots. You don't fire warning shots. You fire to kill and that's it.
@lrom54457 жыл бұрын
+Dragonprincess21 Actually, she did take a plea bargain of three years time served. She originally went to trial. It got appealed on the grounds that the jury instructions were faulty. The jury is given instruction on how they should be ruling. In this case, the jury instructions were found to have shifted the burden of proof. I would fault the jury in this case, as they were given bad instructions. Firing a firearm in Florida outside of self defense has a 20 year minimum sentence. The problem is proving intent. The prosecutor had the burden to prove she wasn't shooting out of fear, but the jury was instructed in a way they thought the defense had to prove she was fearful. Intent has ambiguity, and makes it difficult. There were also two other people in the house. I think the 20 year min sentence laws are messed up. It leads to way over sentencing. She probably took the plea because if she to trial the prosecutor was going to charge her with 3 charges instead - upping the possible sentence to 60 years. It's a messed up way prosecutors have to threaten people. Works on people without super expensive lawyers that can eat up a prosecutor.

As for the video narrator, you lost any respect from me over the "type of man that becomes a prison guard" comment. 99% of prison guards do a thankless and dangerous job. They understand responsibility and workplace safety. It has been my experience that the small percentage of officers who cross the line with inmates lose all respect from their soon to be former co-workers. These are garbage people who betray their coworkers by putting themselves in a position to be blackmailed or by giving special privileges to certain inmates. These garbage officers literally make the workplace less safe for everyone and receive nothing but scorn from the other 99% of corrections officers.

She refused a 3 year plea deal. Being threatened over text doesn't give you cause to fire a gun at someone. 20 years is harsh, but it's 20 years because "The law's name comes from three main mandatory sentences: 1) producing a firearm during the commission of certain felonies mandates at least a 10-year prison sentence; 2) firing one mandates at least a 20-year prison sentence; and 3) shooting someone mandates a minimum sentence of 25 years to life regardless of whether a victim is killed or simply injured. The maximum penalty is a life sentence unless the defendant is charged with felony murder or first degree murder in which case the maximum is the death penalty" A good lawyer would have informed her of this. With that being said, 20 years is harsh, but I still think she should have jail time. Also, verbal abuse doesn't give anyone the right to escalate it physically.

I would say guards were not a 'certain type' meaning they took the job to have sex with the inmates, almost every guard I met was ex-military making the transition from military to civilian formwork, but staying within the government. That being said, sex between inmates and guards does happen, and is probably the largest issue with women's prisons.

The three meals I can't argue but they could beat you and file that you attacked them and they defended themselves. I would happily talk about what I went through in there. Thankfully I was in there a little over 2 weeks because my parents fought tooth and nail to get me out after I told them what the inside was like. They don't want to talk about it now.

For 7 of the 9 years I've been clean, I've been trying to spread the message of this short, sweet, spot-on video. Once again, y'all nailed it. People are told by counselors & treatment centers & clinics that what they have to fight is addiction. That they're gonna see a bright, beautiful, new life for themselves unfold- after all the hard work of beating addiction. But, instead, after all that hard work, you're suddenly faced with all the reasons you started using to begin with. Except now you're facing them sober, for first time in X amount of years. Getting clean is a great way to see what shambles your life is in, & to be intimately re-introduced to your demons. Which obviously doesn't sound encouraging. But, ya gotta recognize your issues before you can fix them. No one starts using because they're addicted; obviously. Yet, addiction & rehab centers nation-wide, focus almost exclusively on addiction, & do nothing to address the reason people need spent enough time using to build that addiction. It makes me crazy. Dual diagnosis places are half-way there. The thing they don't realize is that every addict qualifies as dual diagnosis: people don't use drugs to the point of addiction, unless something else is going on. & it's that something that needs to be addressed. But, I doubt that's the direction our current administration is going to take on the 'opioid epidemic'. Sorry for the preaching. I watch as many Cracked videos as I can find, & I have for years. But this is the first I couldn't help but comment on. It hit a nerve, in a good way. Wonderful job, Cracked!

04:40 they don't allow tampons and pads for many reasons. 1. Cook County had a series of floods from women stuffing hygiene products down the toilets and drains. 2. They are great for starting in fire, which caused Cook County prison to ration them. 3. They were being used as biological hazard weapons and women prisoners were attacking guards with used products. Some people are so broken that they need to be treated like dangerous animals and not sentient human beings. If you don't try to stuff your used tampon down a guards throat, they'll be more likely to let you have tampons.

This is horrible. Cracked I expect better. If this was a opinion piece that wanted to expose the injustices and plight of women in prison it failed. If it wanted to elucidate a single point to take away from this to ponder it failed. If it wanted to look like something that an eighth grader put together over a week of lunch periods, then it succeeded. The production values of this were very subpar, from the echoes in the recording of its "source" to its random footage of fake and real prisons. The succession of images was only barely tied to the narrative, with long stretches of I can only assume prison breaks with women running through halls. Lets start at the beginning. Prison Sex -its against the rules but it happens, so we should accept it, is not an argument although this video seems to assert that. Next, Prison guards - "70% of women prison guards are men, the kind of men who become prison guards." What on earth is this supposed to mean? Is it meant to imply that men who seek to become prison guards are somehow deviants or misogynists? The tone of the narrator seems to be trying to lead to that. If not, then again I ask what? and if so way to smear a large section of people without facts or prior knowledge. I will acknowledge that there are abuses of power, but I would say the exception proves the rule unless you have access to data that shows otherwise. Feminine Hygiene products - How about some editing? Your double entendre "mistake" should have been edited out whether you meant it or not, because it was juvenile and totally went against the whole tone I thought you were trying to set with the narrator format. The security of tampons and such is the same for everything. Razor - pass Sickness and Pregnant - This is what made me make this whole paragraph. You boldtype assertion is that they don't get help when sick or pregnant, then you give two stories that not only do not make your point they actually contradict it! First story, most insurances only cover 1 gynecological visit per year, which is the recommended frequency for women. Why would women in prison need more? The story then says if you went and TOLD someone that you had a problem, you got treatment, but then the source complained that they would have to KEEP going to KEEP getting treatment. How else would you go about that? The next sentence implies that the inmates are relieved of work duties FOR A YEAST INFECTION. I don't know of a woman outside of prison that gets a sick day for that. Finally, the pregnant woman. She was spotting and they put her on bad rest. That is the thing to do if you are trying to keep her from going into labor. Letting her go about her business would likely decrease the time until labor. There is basically nothing else to be done. So the statement that the source gave of complications AS A RESULT of not getting care is undeniably false, unless there are other factors not given in the story. In both stories, care was given, so the whole premise of being left out in the cold is wrong, even as presented by this video. In conclusion, this video is terrible in production values, execution, and coherence of message. This feels like it was slapped together to fill some sort of quota for the maker. Even if you have an agenda you want to tout, your should actually bolster your suppositions, not contradict them.

punkisead I respectfully disagree with just about everything you said. First off this video isn't even 9min long, it's not an in-depth hard hitting editorial but an opinion piece. To say it made anything "clear" is a bit of a reach.Two the disparity in the gender equality of guards is not because men overwhelming seek the job, but that women avoid it like the plague. Three guard is, all things considered, a good carrier option for unskilled workers as it pays well, offers health and dental benefits, and despite the out cry prisons don't seem to going anywhere so there's job security. To the point that I am not permitted to say "not ALL" I'll try a different road. Just a few Muslims are terrorists. Just a few leftists are communists. Just a few right wingers are racists. Just a few feminists are misandrist, and just a few MGTOWs misogynists. See if all thats talk about are the flawed ones the uninformed can get the wrong idea about the whole group. Of curse there are some bad men, maybe even a few bad women, but to out right say "the kind of man who becomes a prison guard" is a gross mischaracterization of people who are making an honest living. You are however fully entitled to think I'm full of shit and disagree with me.

Ryan Acorn I wouldn't say you're full of shit, I see your point of view, and understand. I just happen to personally be a suspicious person, and I am concerned that these women in prisons ( men in prisons as well, actually ) are put in these positions where they can be used.

Ryan Acorn the stereotypes are completely accurate. You're just bitter that it's true. Fix it and change the culture. ...oh and again, it's 100% accurate. stop being such a "snowflake" as your people say

I’ve had visit friends and family members that went to jail and none of them mention this type of shit to me when I was visiting them..I could tell that they’re things that they don’t tell me because they don’t wanna worry or scare me...but I can tell that there was shit going on...they just don’t wanna mention it..not just to me...but to my cousin and siblings..by the time they got out...I could tell that they seen all levels of horror..but some jails have different situations: for example: in Florida, if you’re convicted and you have a fire arm..you’re gonna get a longer sentence or in some parts of California: if you get incarcerated three times...no matter what you’re charged with: it could range from you’re 15th D.U.I( crazy but true)...to even first degree murder...you’ll never get out: moral of the whole story: don’t make dumb decisions otherwise you’ll end up in jail

Why would females shave in prison?
@bookXbat7 жыл бұрын
I replied to this same question somewhere else in the comments but here: It's a habit thing. When I was in bmt (basic mil training) girls were still doing that shit and we only had 15 minutes for 58 girls to shower with 7 working shower heads. Some got good at it and others gave up after a while, but some people just cant let go of societal beauty standards even when it doesn't have any true benefit other than making them feel normal.
@Stonegoal7 жыл бұрын
So we pay more to make them pretty but will not stop the rape? If rape is a requirement of prison it should only be done by the prison guard or it could be a new job we create. It has lots of ugly bitches in there and they would not be shaving, I would not want that job.

Travis Romig Prison has weird priorities. They'll spend as little as possible where they can but give just enough to make them look like they're trying to be good people. "Sure... we may have food that not even a dog would eat... but we let women shave! We are honestly trying really hard to make the women feel like women."
