Con Games Inmates Play
This program details how inmates attempt to entrap staff members by using psychological con
games. Initially an inmate examines the officer for weaknesses. Any laxness on the part of the
staff could be the window needed to provide the inmate with opportunity. If an officer appears
vulnerable, the inmate begins working his manipulations and the unwitting officer soon finds
himself in a compromised situation. Many times staff members are simply trying to be
compassionate or trusting towards inmates because of a strong desire to please, but this can prove
to be monumental mistake if it goes against the institution?s policy. In this video, scenes between
correctional staff and inmates show clues inmates look for tin selecting a target, detail how an
officer is set up, and follow steps inmates take to spring the trap- attempting to force the officer
to bend rules in their favor. The program also shows step officers should take ensure they do not
fall prey to inmates? manipulations and what to do if one believes they have been manipulated
