How to React to Disrespectful Inmates

Maintaining the safety and security of the facility is an officer’s #1 priority. When dealing with a disrespectful inmate, make sure you assess the situation and call in back-up if needed. Steve Maynard talks about his experience in dealing with disrespectful inmates and discusses tactics he’s used to talk to that individual. Most importantly, stay safe.

The ultimate mystery! HAHA. In all honesty, Corrections is a Type-A personality profession. We all come from different walks of life. We have to find common ground and work together because we are all we've got behind the walls. I have to trust that you have my back and you need to know that I have yours! Stay Safe!

They prefer us to cuss in a minimum to medium considering they do it back and we’re all grown men. It’s fun too because they take it as respect when it’s in a playful way

[@gervinmujo7961]

Awesome thank you.

[@christineribone9351]

I like your disposition and intelligence.

Let's see how that works in the Cook County Jail; SIR! HAHAHAHAHAHHA

[@stevemaynard2015]

It works in all jails. Cook County Jail or the toughest prison in America. A inmate is a inmate. If the Officer can't communicate or doesn't have the patience to communicate, then Corrections probably isn't the profession for them. Stay Safe

[@woxfan82]

@@stevemaynard2015 It does work. But, when working with people that think they will live no longer then the age of 25, no, that shit doesn't work. What works is an old school slap in the face. One thing you have to understand is county jail and prison are 2 separate entities. I only have years of experience in a county jail setting. I think you must be admin and gave all the toilet paper out when you did you few years before you made rank.

Is it ever acceptable to insult a corrections officer in public?
