Corrections Corrupt: A True Reflection of Nearly 20 Years As a Corrections Officer

by Craig Wallin

When the outside prison doors slam shut and the bars of the prisoner's cell door emphasize the inmate's reality with a loud metal thud, what takes place in a state prison? A 20-year corrections officer escorts and guards the reader through an honest and penetrating full disclosure into the very shadows of prison life. Corrections Corrupt is a transparent reveal into the "yard", cell blocks of the correctional institute, cafeteria, workshops, administrative offices, and leading right into the office of the warden. The narrative describes the code of respect, the ugliness of prisoners, and their directed abuse against each other and those officers dedicated to their safety. Chronicled is sexual abuse amongst the inmates, sexual misconduct amongst officers and inmates, abuse of power, under-the-table financial deals, discrimination, murder, and suicide. Added is the extreme toll that this chosen and noble vocation has on the officer's personal life that spills into the lives of their families. Corrections Corrupt is a story of a small city populated by criminals. A majority wear prison-issued uniforms, some wear the officer uniform of service, and some wear business suits of power and corruption.
