Why Do Female Prison Guards Keep Having Sex with Inmates? I saw this article in a sponsored post on Facebook. An interesting take on illicit relationships between female guards and inmates posits that the women are actually the victims. The article also links the rise in historical incarceration rates to the war on drugs.
This article might be dated, but its premise is not.
As incarceration numbers have topped out in recent years thanks to what looks like the beginning of the end of the war on drugs, women have gained a stronger foothold in the prison industry, getting jobs that—like so many others in America—have traditionally been dominated by men.
This article might be dated, but its premise is not.
According to Tamara, the appeal is "a combination of getting away with something that is forbidden, the rush of being with someone as hardcore as an inmate, and the false sense of control that they think they have over the situation [but] not necessarily over the inmate. They may have lost all sense of control over every other aspect of their lives, and this form of relationship is something they think they have control over by not getting caught by their superiors or other inmates."
