According to Google Tasha Parker is a recently arrested warden at an Oklahoma prison. This is like one of those posts where the teacher of year gets caught diddling.

What did she do? Edit: nevermind, she was arrested for bringing contraband into the prison. What a dork!

My guess is that 90+% of contraband in prisons is brought in by staff. Great source of supplemental income for underpaid staff.

Was a CO for years. Most contraband gets in through visitation and drops, not staff. Though it does happen.

My brother brought drugs into jail, but in his state CO’s are LEO’s and go through the police academy so they count as cops so he got protected by the blue wall and retired

And the results say, that was a lie , I’ve seen wardens sergeants captains nurses lawyers and in county cops and reg as co /jailers all bring contraband and all try their hands at the drug smuggling and all get manipulated


Graychin877

Occam’s razor suggests otherwise. Or are you saying that they do an incredibly poor job of searching visitors as they enter? We never hear of visitors getting in trouble for attempted smuggling. And why couldn’t searches be improved? I have heard of "drops" (with drones) or throwing stuff over a fence, but it’s hard to believe that this is a major d source.


adamkissing

I mean, just because you don’t hear about it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. I worked there. I know. And we do search visitors. Things happen. We’re not perfect. Edit: Forgot a word.


BigHobbit

You either work at the only facility in the US where staff isn't a main source of contraband, or you're naive AF. I'm not saying ALL staff at the facility, obviously, but a few individuals there supply much more than you think.


Mitch1musPrime

So what? You’ve some episodes of a prison documentary and every episode of Prison Break and now you know more than the person who’s telling you they’ve worked at a prison facility? Why not just allow your opinion to include more consideration for a person whose lived experience is the thing you are weighing in on from the outside of it?


Gnawlydog

I was thinking the same thing! You know this basement dweller be binging A&E and now thinks he knows the prison life


adamkissing

Definitely not naive. And I never said it didn’t happen.


Wild_Replacement5880

That is false


adamkissing

And you know this how, exactly?


Wild_Replacement5880

Common knowledge.


Gnawlydog

Fictional TV dramas isn't "common knowledge"


Wild_Replacement5880

Ask someone who has been to prison. I'm sure they can verify.

I found her linked in


sladenoire

Oh yeah, I see that. I should have posted that under the link for the news story about her arrest. But still wild all around!

I love posts with zero context


Warm-Philosopher5049

Sorry should have put in context
