Con Games Inmates Play, Second Edition

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

North Branch Correctional Facility - Hi Tech Prison

This DVD about the North Branch Correctional Institution (NBCI)is an episode of Megastructures, a National Geographic Channel TV Series. NBCI is the largest, most technologically advanced maximum security prison built as of 2007. The designers of this massive, mega prison have not adopted the severe isolation approach to confinement that is typical of most existing supermax prisons with inmates housed in their cells 23 hours a day. Instead, at NBCI inmates move about the facility at will to gather in the dining hall for meals participate in classroom instruction, and assemble for other services and activities. The design and construction of the facility is highlighted. NBCI was built as an inverted fortress with multilayer perimeter so that inmates cant get out. The walls of the modular cells are super strong, made with super dense concrete and reinforced steel bars. The latest in engineering accounts for the improved security features, including remote control cameras, secret control

rooms, and five -story control tower that control the flush of toilets so inmates can not dispose of contraband. NBCI, under the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, is located in western Maryland in the city of Cumberland.
