RE: the maintenance worker in Orleans prison that was threatened and helped the escapees

He said he was threatened to get stabbed if he didn’t help, so he did what they asked.
Assuming that’s true:
What do you do?
What should his punishment be?

You think maintenance workers are alone with prisoners?
Guards are barely alone with prisoners.

It's probably folly to pretend to know how things were actually operating in this place or to think they were always operating the way you would believe a typical jail would operate.

From what’s come out in this story, it’s laughable that you think this is true.
There’s a guy I know from work that I saw today. He used to electric work and said they sent him out for a job at OPP and he was expected to go do work in a cell without a gurd directly accompanying him. He asked about it and they said they didn’t have enough to pull one off.

If it's true, unlikely, it comes down to a procedure/protocol failure at some point. So any punishment would be work-related and not criminal.
And the extent of it would he what's his contribution to that failure vs inadequate protocol/facility procedure etc.

Shoot the prisoner for threatening my life

Normal procedures and protocols found at most jails and prisons probably don’t apply at all to this facility.

If true, this alone is enough to fire everyone above the hourly wage level at the prison. Guards should never be alone with a prisoner. Maintenance workers should never even be near prisoners, alone or otherwise.
Any area where they are working should be vacated of prisoners. This is just basic common sense.

In OPP? Yeah I would believe it. That place is a understaffed shithole with shite employees that probably belong behind bars themselves.
But I don't believe his story.

Orleans Parish Sherriff deputies dont even have to have a high school education......they come straight from the streets and the projects.....there is no training or academy for these people.......frick....even SuperSaint could be a OPS Deputy.

Someone hasn't read up on the circumstances involved...
The two "guards" were both gone when the jailbreak happened. One was out to get food and the other was just "not present" according to the news. If they weren't around when this happened it stands to reason that there was other times as well.

That's my point. There should never even be a situation where a prisoner could threaten to shiv a maintenance worker, because they should have no interaction.

I don’t think anyone is disagreeing with you here at all. I think you’re severely underestimating just how dysfunctional this place is.
The guy they interviewed flat out said they don’t do regular role calls becuase some people may be seeing the doctor or with a family member visiting. So it’s hard for them to do a roll call when people are gone.

But that’s the reality. So it’s highly possible that this guy was alone with them. In that situation, what options do you have?

A buddy of mine got tossed in there one Mardi Gras for being an arse to NOPD while drunk. We went down there to bond him out at about 4:00am and they couldn’t even his paperwork. They took us back there to a giant cell in central booking packed with people to point him out. Over in the corner three deputies were beating the hell out of a guy and the deputy escorting us glanced over and just ignored it.
We pointed out buddy out, he let him out of the cell and said “get the frick out of here.” Away we went. No bond, no paperwork, nothing. I believe any story about that place that anyone tells me. Especially that the deputy working that area left to “get some dinner” and no one took over supervision of the area.

The cell doors don’t even lock

I’m just arguing with myself because the situation is so ridiculous and every piece of information that comes out, just makes it even more retarded.
Every person involved, from the governor to the mayor to the sheriff is a cartoon character.
I don’t believe this maintenance worker. His story SHOULD be impossible. The fact that’s it’s possible is just crazy.
