prison break

If you treat inmates like animals, they’ll act like animals. What happens when they get out of jail? Would you want them living in your suburb?

In the third episode of Behind the Walls: Daily Life, crime author and former journalist Michael Duffy learns how inmates – and staff – spend a typical day at prisons including Cessnock, Dawn de Loas and Bathurst correctional centres.

Macquarie Correctional Centre prison officer Liz Sears tells Michael:

“Essentially our job as a prison officer is to make our community safer, and in order to do that we need to give these inmates as much chance as possible to re-enter society and be safe, because they will be living next door to us.

“We are not giving them any more than what they deserve or any more than anyone else on the outside deserves, we are just giving our community as a whole, the chance to be safe.”

Would you believe that some inmates actually ask to be sent to Australia’s toughest and most regimented prison, Supermax? 

In the second episode of Behind the Walls: Security, crime author and former journalist Michael Duffy learns about prison-yard hierarchies and how to stop inmates from attacking each other.

“There’s no doubt that security is the core function of a prison, but security means much more than just locking people up and watching them from towers so they don’t escape,” Michael says. 

“It means keeping inmates from attacking each other, or rioting, or attacking our officers or prison property. 

“That means our officers need to know what’s going on among the inmate population. To do that, they have to walk among the inmates, talk to them, gather and respond to intelligence.”

Media teaches us facts about our world. And most of the time we don't even notice. We learn that elevators have roof hatches and that most of Earth's oxygen comes from the rain forests, along with a bunch of other TV lies, and we don't even realize we have learned these things (incorrectly). 

Dr. Bill Yousman joins me to discuss media, prison, and the war on drugs. We also talk about rap music, masculinity, and methods for avoiding the miseducation that comes with irresponsible media consumption.  

Thousands arrested, injured, killed. The price for a revolution in Egypt was high, but when millions across the country protested for change well, anything was possible, right?
Gone was Egypt’s strongman and in his place, an unlikely leader. Mohamed Morsi - the “spare tire” of a political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood - was in.  He was to be a president for all the people. But his meteoric rise and fall proved otherwise.

This week, the Julia talks about the very haunted West Virginia State Penitentiary at Moundsville, WV, which was haunted before there was ever a prison and DEFINITELY hasn't gotten better, and Sam covers the the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, OH. It was used to film the Shawshank Redemption, but the horrors experienced by Andy and Red can't hold a candle to what actually happened inside.
