In 2017, i was at Formby unit and i was amazed from all the contraband they had in their. I've learned a lot from that experience. I have not been back since. I am now a productive member of society.
My sister worked there. The problem is that TDCJ hires just about anyone, and the wardens and other high ranks don't walk the floors and get involved in their employees. My sister felt she couldn't trust her fellow CO's.
I’ve heard that on the prison show on KPFT. They hire anyone off the street and they quit daily or are super lazy and corrupt. when someone dies in prison they always say it was natural causes when it was because they were beaten by guards. I’ve heard all of this on the prison show
That can be said for any job that doesn’t require you to have a degree. Easy work for the most part…do your rounds, count heads, go home. Horrible job for a female though.
The biggest problem as to hiring is where prisons have been built--away from town--and the state doesn't pay moving expenses. It's up to the lege to provide raises, but Texas doesn't keep up with the cost of living. Texas is a lousy employer.
I did 4 years in Texas prison system and had to do 4 more years on parole and if it wasn't for the prison library that had books on drug abuse and alcohol abuse and how to help your self while in prison and going to church and memorizing scriptures and praying all the time I don't I would have made it this far in life 29 years without alcohol and 29 years without eleagal drugs I have a full time job and a savings account and I go to church every Sunday and do Bible study after work and I no longer live in Texas I believe a change in states and a fresh start for me in life has made me a better man in society My advice to any prisoner is you have to dream of turning your life around and going to church to find Jesus Christ and studying the word every chance you get and lurning to stay to your self and hold a job and always be think full for that and all always pay your bills on time and you'll make it off parole and as soon as you get off parole leave Texas and never look back
@@jahvincikingdamani4718 really freedom you azz. We suffer with wounds poisoning from where we fought and get little pay for 20 yrs. Freedom you say well if you ever find yourself poor homeless and hungry see if your freedom keeps you warm or fills your belly or puts money in your pocket.
10:04 Wow. Ive did time with Ramon. Didn't talk to him often, but I remember him well. One thing I remember about him that he was a very positive guy and was always smiling! Seeing him in this video made me both happy and sad..happy that he's alive and looking well, and sad that he's still there "11 YEARS" after I left. I don't know what he was in there for, but if anyone was worth enough to be set free, it would be most DEFINITELY HIM. And he hasn't aged at all except for a little more gray 🤣! Hopefully one day he'll be free. Not only he's needed for guidance in there, but he would be a perfect inspiration on the outside, and worth more to society 💯
Did you know Chief, his name was Larry Gillispie He had life and was an old timer but was on the Wynne unit for 15 years before he got moved to a prison with more elderly people
The scumbags know the system they make shanks they know how to bring drugs from the outside in to the prision they smuggle phones in they known the in and outs
Oh man! My Alma mater! Wynne was my first unit and where I cut my teeth as a CO. One of the oldest max units, it "wuddn't no joke," as they'd say. 28 years since I walked those runs, and was down with my Hommies. This is where I learned that respect is earned and not just given. That "firm fair and consistent," isn't just a slogan, but the real path to self respect. That when the court sentenced even the worst people in society, that they took away their time, and not their humanity. I spent the next 24 years in SAFP and the things I learned here made my career fruitful in helping men fight their demons of addiction. Seeing this video brought back a flood of memories. Stay down and stay safe my Bros. And Sisters.
I saw SAFP change so many lives. When one of my ex Residents come up to me and shake my hand and introduce me to they're families and tell me about how fruitful their lives are now, I can't help but feel pride in what I did, and proud for them. My family has lost so much to addiction and to "give it back," helped me heal from my pain from it. Hope you're doing well, and hope your family are doing well also. @@The88Cheat
Lmfao SAFP is fkd. Hate to say it but on Units most of you CO’s aren’t fair at all. Your typically a bunch of people that are out of shape and decided to get a job where they could exert some authority. Right up until we put them hands on you, then you got your act right or stopped working there. Not saying you were like that, but lots are..
At 5:45: they should make sure that they'd investigate those officers too. Because I know from experience. I am a ex con. I've served 5 years in TDCJ-ID. And part of my sentence was served on the Wynne Unit, in Huntsville, Texas. I was in Ad. Seg. Those officers try their best to make your life miserable and will assault you. They try their best to provoke you, via extreme and abusive harassment. And I'm talking about the ranking officials as well. It's so typical that the prisons only talks about "how dangerous the inmates are." But never speak on "the corruption of the administration itself." So typical! But I know better.
Some time the sociopaths are the people who work there I seen guards show up to work drunk and on Xanax or pain killers there the ones bringing the drugs phones and lord knows what else so u can say some inmates and guards are very alike only difference one gets paid minimum wage in 100 degree weather and the other is doing time in 100 degree weather
I saw a documentary some time ago about a big prison in Singapore. The inmates cells are thoroughly searched each morning and any type of contraband or not following the prison rules, will lead to additional corporal punishment and added prison time. Their cells must also be cleaned by the inmates and all items in the cell, must be displayed in the correct order before the morning inspection. 👍👍
no, the staff is acting like they're searching and checking but they're really not because they're all in on it. I know someone who is locked up and has been in there for seven years now and I can tell you right now 90% of the drugs and cell phones are coming in from the guards. These guards are making a kill'n from these inmates. These inmates that are addicted to drugs are in high heaven right now! with that being said, no one is learning any lessons at all because they use drugs on the outside and they could care less if they get locked up because they know that when they get locked up, they will still have access to drugs, regardless, so getting in trouble means nothing to them anymore. Also, they do have drones. I know this for absolute fact that are flying in drugs and cell phones. But most of it is through the guards that is an absolute fact!!!
It’s crazy but after 20 plus years of working there you can spot the new officers that will be fired for bringing in drugs and stuff It’s a sicking feeling knowing they don’t belong there
@@angelawhite7140 my son is in a Texas prison 😭 and the things that he has to go through being there,breaks my heart. I am trying to find help with his case.
Did my time in medium custody. In 2001 Not as violent as other texas prisons. But you were able to make money cash money. Everyone was making money at that unit. Trustees were making a killing as they were Almost keeping half of each drop.
I did lockdown at Holliday until across from wynne unit and during lockdown it goes dorm to dorm or tier to tier pretty much you won't leave the tier or dorm. Holliday is open dorm and wynne is a tier 3 unit
As an ex-correctional officer.. its on the inmates. Ive seen COs be tempted because of financial troubkes, and inmates are quick to jump on it. I was offered 7k to bring in a "couple sheets of paper"
I once worked in a county facility as a C.O. and had access to emergency access keys (Folger Adam type). There was one key that could open all of the doors manually with this key and could lead you out of the jail. I was offered $1 million for that key by a Crip leader who was facing serious time on his charges. I laughed it off and told me "you know I can't do that." I was given a lot of respect by the Crips after that. I never turned that inmate in to intelligence or wrote him up for it where he could have faced serious internal consequences (Ad-Seg., restricted jail movement, etc...) and possible bribery or escape charges.
Same here! The inmates know the COs are under paid. I worked Ferguson unit in 2015. You couldn’t live on what were were paid. I think Tdcj should be one of the higher paying state jobs considering what the officers deal with daily. And yes they Should be more selective in who they hire. The only real qualification to get hired is to be able to count…. Seriously
For everyone asking if the COs are being searched and looked into the answers are yes. I still talk to inmates that I did time with and they tell me TDC is taking this very serious and investigating all employees
Legit .... ANY crime outside of hurting children or unmotivated acts of extreme violence shouldn't hold a life sentence. The prison system was supposed to be designed to "rehabilitate" criminals ... NOT to permanently house them. Problem is all these prisons get paid per inmate...More inmates with longer sentences=more money. The whole system is corrupt as can be.
What is scary and about that this is that this has not been done since 2008!!! It should be every 6 months at RANDOM w/o gaurds knowing Most of them are just as crooked and dangerous as the inmates. Probably worse!!
At least two a year and when certain housing areas are being knuckleheads, fighting, assaulting officers,etc... they get locked down for 2-4 weeks. The longest I ever saw was 8 months!
@@drebearsfruit yes! I live in Huntsville Texas where we are surrounded by Prisons and more to the North south east and west!! I got family inside prison and family that work for prisons. Family they are lawyers and family that are the Police…. I stand by what I said 💯
@@jennysmith3906That’s awesome! And yeah I agree with what you said 100%. It’s the only way really. Too much goes on inside that never gets discovered. Unfortunately I had the pleasure of serving 18 months at Hutchins unit in Dallas when covid started…My first and last time in a Texas prison. Horrible. But it’s also definitely a deterrent for anyone who is serious about turning their life around. I live in Plano now and I am done with that lifestyle. Can I ask what you do for a living?
I can’t believe they left her in there with those yoga pants on. I worked in a prison and the one I worked at would have never left her in there with those on.
And we had another Escape from the Texas Clemens Prison just South of Houston. Seems like every few years one or more figure out a way to escape. The Guard's are bringing in the Contraband & everyone knows this. It comes straight from the Prisoners mouth 😅
He said that Mill is one of the biggest pipelines on how to get contraband into the prison that's false one of the biggest pipelines is the actual guards that work there
No sweetheart in Texas what first stands out when you pull up to THIS prison is the RED BRICKS. These certain prisons arnt like the rest in Texas. These inmates have a lot of time.
Maybe we shouldn’t incarcerate everyone and their dog in this country and we wouldn’t have to devote so many resources. Scandinavian countries provide a concrete example of how to lower recidivism. Most these men need mental health treatment, esp addicts, not prison. As soon as we can get Protestant, or really all religious influence out of our legislatures, stop locking people up for “sins,” we can start to move forward as a modern, secular society, and have a much higher quality of life. Do your own research; it’s why incarceration rates are so high. The most secular countries on earth have much higher quality of life, lower incarceration and recidivism rates, and the list goes on.
Guards used to charge 50$ for a pack of cigarettes an 200for a oz of weed an if u wanted some time with a woman 300$ there not tell the truth this is a show to entertain
You're not wrong. Hell all anyone has to do is drive by a prison and see the cars the crooks I mean guards are driving, no way that can afford those making cless than a McDonald's employee
Raddy, hello may know where is this location, what the types of prisoner is usually they did,how long the prisoner stay, what is the punishment this prisoner gets.,how longs. Are they had familys, what types of cases this prisoner did, how is the prisoner had rest.in.peace, who is handle and settles it, thank you to this videos, channels. Stay safe.whom ever still arounds.
What I like to know are they pursuing criminal charges on those letters where they find contraband. Should be fairly easy to find them they have the name, address, etc. on the envelope of where it came from!!
The hardest thing in the world, is learning to provide yourself with forgiveness. You have done yourself wrong by making bad choices. So during the personal development phase , you get mad at the one in the mirror , questioning how did I let myself get so low
My sister worked there for 15 years, and she never brought in any contraband. She worked hard and was rewarded by higher-ups who didn't care about procedures being broken by CO'S and didn't care to crack down on them or the inmates' families bringing in contraband.
I was locked up once and we went through a lock down and a search and the inmates that had cell phones just let the inmates that were in the maintenance crew hold the phone's

There is absolutely no way so much contraband could find its way into any prison system without the help of corrupt guards and prison staff.
You're absolutely correct. The story references this issue @06:42
Are you aware of drones?...😂
I agree. Prison guards and staff should be searched. I know an inmate who knows lots of drugs come in through guards.
That's how the majority gets inside is the officers
Gee, you think? Most prisons/jails with contraband get stuff brought by staff.
Did 17 years flat at Wynne..released in 2002 and haven't looked back since.

never allow any of your female family members work at a prison....... NEVER

Do your own research; it’s why incarceration rates are so high. The most secular countries on earth have much higher quality of life, lower incarceration and recidivism rates, and the list goes on.
Guards used to charge 50$ for a pack of cigarettes an 200for a oz of weed an if u wanted some time with a woman 300$ there not tell the truth this is a show to entertain
You're not wrong. Hell all anyone has to do is drive by a prison and see the cars the crooks I mean guards are driving, no way that can afford those making cless than a McDonald's employee
Fuking wow man! 😲
4yrs done on This unit
The majority of contraband like drugs and phones come in through the staff. The mail is maybe 5% of it.
When he said offender... I got offended

You should talk to the not hand picked inmates in their cells burning up
@Jonathantomposon5084. They are all burning up including the guards.
@@alextijerina1284 the guards all huddle in the pickets where there is a/c 🙄
@@jonathanthompson5084 You do know that being a guard is like Babysitting as one CO told me. So yea I can see then huddle where there is A/C.
What I like to know are they pursuing criminal charges on those letters where they find contraband. Should be fairly easy to find them they have the name, address, etc. on the envelope of where it came from!!
Yeah because of course they’re going to put their actual return address 😂
@readyeddie2065 In that case, the person receiving it shouldn't receive the contents of what was sent! And that should be made law in all prisons!!
@@Theideaman good idea ideaman 💡
Why is this "treatment" not offered on the street?
How you think most of it coming in the staff not only the mail rooms
i was locked up wen we were on 23&1 there’s NO WAY he was “found” in his cell during lockdown guards do rounds every 30 mins 💯💯💯💯💯
Hell on earth
all kinds of ways besides guards but yes they are one problem I don't care what they do they will get it in
Would not the guards to some degree be complicit in bringing in contraband?
The hardest thing in the world, is learning to provide yourself with forgiveness. You have done yourself wrong by making bad choices. So during the personal development phase , you get mad at the one in the mirror , questioning how did I let myself get so low
Did time back in 07 there
I worked at John Middleton Unit for 6 years.
Im facing 2-5 in Texas prison. What happens to Black non affiliates? What organizations can Black non affiliates join in Texas prisons?
Are they scanning the prisoners, or the COs🤔🤷🏽
both.
They're not going to scan themselves and lose money.
@jarrettgreen7628. There is plenty of money to be made by both prisoners and staff.
Ha! Ol Wynne Unit....myself and a couple of buds hacked out of there in 96 to 98. Right under their noses. Now they give tablets....LOL
Officers brings in most of the contraband and drugs.
That reporter is 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍.
All the guards in Wayne unit are corrupt the was bringing in the most drugs and phones on that unit 🙌
@mexicanplug6201. How do you know, were you an inmate there?
@@alextijerina1284shut your mouth
My sister worked there for 15 years, and she never brought in any contraband. She worked hard and was rewarded by higher-ups who didn't care about procedures being broken by CO'S and didn't care to crack down on them or the inmates' families bringing in contraband.
Since when did prisons start allowing tablets
Yea it’s not costing tdcj it cost the inmate and the guards are the ones idiots
My so is ththere 😢
What a smoke screen and bull we need a total rehall in state and federal prison
There go the staff members
I was locked up once and we went through a lock down and a search and the inmates that had cell phones just let the inmates that were in the maintenance crew hold the phone's
