Don’t believe all of the lines of crap that they like to spoon feed you. If they follow the rules and treat others with respect that is exactly the way they are treated.

My husband was at that prison for 15 years. They were just investigated for sexual battery last year among the guards abusing the inmates. Of course they cover it up by calling it aggressive searching for contraband. I think prolong holding of someones genitalia is beyond searching. I’ve never met not one courteous correctional officer. I’ve never been arrested. I pay my taxes. Yet I;m treated like scum because I refuse to abandon my loved one. The guards don’t stop to chat and saves lives. The stop to terrorize and abuse. Just look at the beginning of this video when he’s yanking down a sheet. All he has to do is treat them they way they would like to be treated. Hey please remove the sheet it’s not allowed. People give respect when they get it. If you came to my home and yanked something off my wall. Well I would not be pleasant to you. This is prison where they are to be rehabilitated. Not treated like animals. But of course if they did that they would not need their over 50 prisons. They want the prisoners to stay so they have job security !
