You are the new warden assigned to a closed-security prison. This prison has
been overwhelmed with security lapses that have resulted in four escapes over
the past 3 years. The assaults among inmates have risen 30% over the past year,
and there have been two assaults on staff in the past 6 months. You have been
assigned to resolve the situation
Please discuss the following 6 questions with your group members. Provide
your thoughts and comments for answering each of the questions a minimum of 2
times, and provide support and references for your contributions where
necessary.
•What would you do?
•List at least 4 of your priorities?
•Explain what measures you would take to protect inmates?
•Explain what measures you would take to protect staff?
•How would you handle the vocational aspects of the prison and the academic
educational aspects so that all instructors, staff, and inmates are
protected?
•How would you implement your changes?
Once your group has decided on appropriate responses for each question,
combine your individual thoughts and responses into one deliverable of 5–7 pages
for the whole group. Each individual should address 2 or more questions from the
group assignment in a 1–2 page paper that will be combined with the other group
member contributions into one 5–7 page document. Also assign a member of your
group to write an introduction and conclusion based on the other member’s
contributions.
