If he is being unfairly targeted because he was a whistleblower? Please stay on this story. If the prison gets away with it this will make things worse!! This must be dealt with honestly!!
If the prison director is allowed to get away with this HORRIFIC CORRUPTION it well set a very dangerous precedent moving forward - they will know they can act with impunity. Please stay on this story!! Very, very disturbing.
0:00 I'm glad she brought this up. No, what the officer did in restraining the inmate was _not_ a crime and yes, what the AZ DOC and the Maricopa County Attorneys Office are doing to the officer _is_ retaliation.
Granted there are other inconsistent instances. There was no reason to pull the inmate out of his cell. He also appeared to not be resisting. I will however say they both shouldn't have been fired but definitely put on non paid leave.
And this is my image act the way they do towards correctional officers cuz some of them are abusive I'd say about 80% of them are abusive towards inmates. They take their jobs to a whole nother level.
He, him, his....there were multiple guys in this news clip, you wanna let us know which one you're talking about if your going to make a comment about it?
I think the worst fear I have is that one of my sons would end up in one of these places. Sometimes I wonder if max prisons should be run like a boot camp with instant discipline for stepping out of line. And I don't mean solitary confinement, that should be abolished for the most part. Laps, dish washing and so forth.
People who are locked up for aggravated robbery or doing life for murder who aren't afraid to beat and kick a down CO in the head, aren't going to be afraid of a time out or having to run laps. If they're not scared of maximum security prison then I doubt a little exercise would be a good deterrent for any prisoners.
I just got out. We had I pads, smartphones, tv's, weed, liquor, fast food, pills, junk food, plenty of sleep, and the new young white guys were forced to give us head. Summer camp on steroids basically...
@@sandhanitizer15 The shame is our prisons are not a place for rehabilitation and most offenders come out with little hope of staying out and making a life for themselves. In a lot of states prisoners not only do time but are expected to pay for the bed they sleep in, the food they eat as well as medical care. Instead of a clean slate they are bound by monetary issues including fees for being on parole. So they shouldn't have done the crime, right? Well, punishment is all well and good but punishment without hope or rehabilitation just breeds more criminals and our society is becoming a society of dysfunctional, violent felons. The US already has the largest prison population in the world. We can argue all day long but it seems to me there is no real answer, especially if the guards are criminals as well.
@@bravebutterfly2683 There’s a petition to have Rikers closed down. Too many inmates have been deleted by neglect of guards and too many inmates deleting themselves .
Looks like some ego had play in this as well. “He was tensing up” while against a wall in handcuffs. So I can justifiably throw him to the ground on his face. Can you imagine being thrown to the ground, hands secured behind your back and no way to catch yourself? These people breed hate through acts like this in jail.
Why is nobody talking about how the Correction guards at Lewis sends certain inmates to a block known for exual predators if they file any formal grievances? Or how about the abuse of an inmate where they told the nurses at a hospital to forge records and claim the injury was “self inflicted”
That’s every prison……I was in OC county jail years ago where they killed a Chomo (dude was not even convicted yet he was waiting trial after being accused). The police not only colluded with specific inmates but a bunch of them lied. Even down to where it happened. It happened in front of me and many other yet, the official report has it happening in a whole different area…..
Unacceptable. Prisoners are doing their time. Guards are not their to physically dish it out. I have been a inmate. Their are good and bad correction guards. Just like some prisoners are not bad people. Some are.
This is suppose to be a warning to anyone that even thinks about being a whistleblower in that prison. Please do not let this scare you from being a moral human being. These men were trying to make that place safer. It is and has been one of the deadliest prisons in the USA for decades.
There are so many cases where inmates reports officers & CO’S but they get swept under the rug or ignored. But the families need to stay on top of any complaints their loved ones had made on the prison guards and any other prison officials
If the department of Justice wasn't so corrupt these days I would say that they should probably go through this prison system with a fine tooth comb remove all the corruption and if need be take care of lawyers governors anybody extends in the way.
Apparently according to the ex officer he was fired and the inmate did press charges but "they" settled out of court. They paid the inmate a certain amout of money to keep mouth shut according to him.
Please stop seeing your political ideology and everything. This has nothing to do with crime being tolerated in many cities. Absolutely nothing. Prisons have always been like this. That’s why they’re in prison.
Really I am guessing that you have never done anything ever that could have been a little shady. Like never got drunk or a heated argument with an ex or just lashing out because you had a bad day. The only difference between you and the inmates is you never got caught. And that goes for every single person walking this planet. You have no idea what circumstances could have led up to their incarceration. Don't judge what you don't know
Right?? My brother who has passed away he use to tell me stories about how aggressive the CO’s were at Winslow prison and my brother told me he was afraid of them because of how they could kill the inmates and get away with it . So ya exactly what goes around comes around .
@@Bigbodybri I'm so sorry 😞 for your loss. I know he's with you in spirit your guardian angel. I get hated on all the time because I call out cops, badge carriers, public servants and they're dirty dishonorable corrupted ways.
If you think that these guys deserve everything they get you got a lot to learn the s*** they have to put up with they know these inmates have more rights than they do and us on the outside sidewalk vaguely on eggshells when you make a statement like that
@@georgerion8468 right they deal with pieces of 💩 people. I bet these people saying they deserve this protest when a guy murders someone then shoots at cops and then gets shot saying why didn’t you tase him 😂. Such low iq people nowadays.
@@georgerion8468 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂complete horse shix.....I've seen it with my own eyes....CO's beat the shix outta inmates with 0 consequences like 98% of the time.
Being treated like what? They have it easy in prison this ain't like beyond scared straight at all or anything like that... I'm sorry but there's stuff that you shouldn't argue if you have no idea wtf you're talking about.
That's what I said there are some prison guards that doesn't need that job because they hurt the prisoners and they don't care they do it to a lot of them in every prison around Columbus Ohio around other states and different different ones like West Virginia even Kentucky even Cincinnati even this everywhere they do it and they get away with it some of them until they get caught then they get in trouble but they need to start watching these prisons more often than what they do cuz they let the prisoners beat up the other prisoners and have sex with them and have do other things to him so they need to really start watching these prisons and especially Hamilton county is the worst one that I know that will do that I know for a fact that they do it and I have talked to her detective before about what's going on in these prisons and they said there's nothing they can do about it in less than prisoners turn on the person that does it but who in it right mind would turn on somebody that's in jail because you know once you go back in jail they beat you up more and do things to you again so these police and others the security guards need to be held accountable for what they're doing and needs to come to a stop
The officers and the inmates know where their place is and sometimes one or the other will get out of line. It's like a big game of cat and mouse you just never know from day to day who the cat is.
Well , unfortunately if cops don't play ball, and join the corporates . Well this is how far they will go to get rid of them. Specially whistle blowers
This is not common to be seen or witnessed by cameras, I was in myself and was beat and neglected and witnessed others get the crap beat out of them. I was told by prison staff that I should get killed and this was ok with them after begging to be moved to protective custody. Many of us where molested beat and neglected.
It would be a huge understatement to say that the Arizona Bureau of Prisons is less than happy with having to release all that video footage. It's going to show everybody in the world what they're really about!!!
Yeah and now they most likely are going to get in trouble trying to delete and alter videos or failing to withhold video footage. Crooks crooks crooks!!!
The police department does the same thing so at the end of the day are they really working for the good of the people no when you have a good officer stopping a bad officer from harming someone in handcuffs and the one who stops and gets fired that's crazy
im a prosecutor and this case was NOT charged properly and was extremely mishandled by the prosecutor. this is injustice when you look at what other officers have done to inmates in the past with little or no punishment
But every one of those cops were wrong , yes the other cops were more violent but in the whistle blowers case the inmate showed no physical aggression at all if he said something that they didn’t like boo boo it’s people like you that corrupts the system justifying one evil over a worst evil 👿 same on you
So if it's not retaliation, why haven't the DA Office the correction officer who body slammed the inmate with the other officer kicking him in the head while handcuffed??? I smell corruption at the way to the top on this one. I don't see where any of those officers have a good reason for slamming a inmate to the floor when he is already handcuff. If you going charged one, you will have to charge all of them or get made a fool of by the videos where nobody was charged for doing this very same thing. This just goes to show us how corrupt the court system is and they are all criminals all the way up to the judge!!! YES I SAID IT!!!!
All - not some - ALL of these prisoners have done horrific crimes. I have no respect for them and they deserve no mercy. Their victims didnt deserve their fates - so this use of force is just their karma. This prison is Marriot compared to what happens to worst offernder prisoners in foreign jails
People shouldn't ever make such judgements on others that they know nothing about. You watched this video and have come to the conclusion that everyone in there is some kind of an animal. The only reason the guards are still alive is because the inmates allow them to be alive the inmates outnumber the guards at a minimum of 50 to 1. Most of the individuals in jail is because of a fucked up day and generally while being on alcohol. The only difference between most of them and yourself is the fact that you didn't get caught. There is very few people in this world that have not committed a crime at least once in their life that could if made them in this very same position. It's almost like when someone says they don't lie. Because everyone does or has even if it was as small as telling someone your okay when your ACTUALLY not
@@jeremywingate4950 I knpw someone who was so brutally assaulted that she lost her movement in the left part of her body. Her assailant was jailed here. I KNOW from that history the kind of animals that are incarcerated here. Until you lose a loved one to one of these rodents - dont prance and preach like some holier-than-thou saint. Ur an idealist. Means you see the world with rose tinted glasses.
The problem that people have when they watch, is that the maneuver seems "violent." Well, duhh. A take down, by definition needs to be sudden, unexpected, and forceful to be successful. These two guards were UNDOUBTEDLY targeted for payback by the prison brass. Without a doubt! They were merely trying to make the prison safer for everyone when they reported the terribly unsafe conditions, and this is how they are treated?! OUTRAGEOUS. They are heroes. Please continue reporting this story.
Prison guards should not be allowed to slam somebody that's in cuffs. What danger can they be in cuffs? Inmates don't attack guards that just are doing their job. Inmates attack guards that have messed with them or treated them unfairly and disrespected them
So basically Prison guard going to get charged with assault but the criminal is going to die in prison anyways.. hmm So why are we watching this Stuff..
They should be fired and yea that is excessive force and also retaliation. There should be a job for people to watch all jail house footage and charge all officers doing this. Hes playing the "well what I did wasnt as bad as this" excuse but it was still bad and he should be fired. Dude says "he was all in our faces tensed up" meanwhile hes being held against the wall but he was "in their face." If you slam someone handcuffed on concrete you should get aggravated assault. I mean you can kill someone like that when they cant even stop their faces from hittimg concrete . If cops and guards were actually held accountable at all times there would be alot less deaths. Without that this will continue to happen everywhere in the us. Theres only so much someone in handcuffs can do. If you are threatened by someone in cuffs maybe you shouldn't be a guard or officer in the first place
This whistle blower is just as guilty as the rest of them. You don’t body slam someone with handcuffs behind their back period. The rest of them in the other clips are just as guilty. The terrifying part of this is, if it wasn’t for internal friction between officers and video coming out, we never would have known. Think about that 🤔🤔😳.
Why aren’t you covering the Memphis shooting of people while streaming the video of the ordeal on Facebook Live, according to Memphis Police. Police said a 19-year-old Ezikiel Kelly is responsible for the shooting spree in Memphis on Wednesday, September 7. At least two shootings had been reported in Memphis as of 7pm, a deadly shooting at a BP gas station on South Parkway and a woman who was critically injured after being shot on Norris Road near I-240.
How utterly ridiculous to press charges on Corrections Officers!!!!! Did any of these violent inmates think about the excessive force they used on their victims!!!!
He was still WRONG, NOWHERE in that video was his guy resisting. So now he wants to compare other incidents, even some of those were excessive too...prosecute all of them
If you want to see nasty prison corrections, go to lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the officers like to beat up prisoners in blindspots, call code blue and pretend that the inmate is suicidal so they get locked up in the camera isolation cell with literally nothing, no paper, no books, no cup, only finger food slid on the floor under the door in a Styrofoam tray. The doctor who perscribes meds purposely tries to give the inmatea seratonin syndrome by mixing saraquill,prozazin and prozac together. If you get arrested here, youre either a science experiment, a zoo animal or a punching bag in there...
Lieutenant Holland was my sergeant for almost 3 years at Yuma Complex State Prison. He was a great supervisor always supported his staff and helped inmates. He was always watching out for staff safety. Unfortunately Arizona Department of Corrections don't like the good apples.
It is a crime whether or not it's retaliation. The title makes no sense. They are not correcting anyone or anything like that, but only fomenting more violence.
This is seriously sad, but honestly, this is a tip of a larger iceberg as someone that was there for 10 years. I have stores that’ll make your hair curl. This type of activity happens every day.
It is a shame the correction officers get away with what they do and let the prisoners have sex with the other person nobody should be doing that kind of stuff I don't care who you are and they should be held accountable for what they do things need to be put in jail and be done like that it's not good for the prisoners the prisoners are getting treated like s*** and I mean they are getting treated bad and I said s*** is what I said the treat them damn guards like that
Correction officers treat inmates like s@!# ... Understand we all know those ppl are in there for different reasons but they shouldn't be treated like that...they call it correction faculty but mistreatment isn't correction. That just gives inmates more reasons to be violent and then released into public with that mindset.
Using the other video as evidence of favoritism is pretty weak. The old guy was set down not "slammed" and you can clearly see his ankle through the doorway right before he's kicked. I don't think he should have been kicked at all, but the claim that the kick was to the head is not compelling at all. Since he was lifting his ankle like it was and where it was there's no way his head was anywhere near where that kick landed. Abuse of prisoners happens and what happened to the guy being interviewed is pretty suspicious but his representation of the old guy video serves no purpose but to make me question the veracity of his other claims.
There is no reason to use that force on a handcuffed person , disgraceful cowards stop the abuse put these animals in prison. If you are afraid to do a job find a new one
