I'm actually surprised that made the news. I figured it would be a regular occurrence.

There are no winners in this situation. One man hurt bad and another ruins his life with an assault charge.

Probably just a gentleman's disagreement on whether or not they should participate in the prisoner's rights protest.

If they are already in Angola, chances are their life was already wrecked beyond belief.

I hope he's not in too much trouble with the law.

Burl Cain may have been corrupt, but he turned Angola from a gladiator pit into a fairly safe prison. Sounds like the new regime is letting things slip.

It is. When I was in residency, we took care of the Texas Dept of Corrections.

Seemed like every other Monday morning they brought us a 2-for-1 special: one guy with a boxer's fracture and one guy with a mandible fracture.

Once it got dicey when 2 guys tried to go for round 2 in our clinic. The "correctional officers" were pretty useless. Me, one of my buddies--another resident--and actually 4 or 5 other inmates were between them trying to keep them apart and deescalate things.

In the heat of the moment, I didn't have any time to consider the gravity of the situation. But after things calmed down and I started thinking about circumstances, it kinda fricked me up for a while realizing how vulnerable we residents were in those clinics. Usually had 30-40 prisoners, 2-3 residents, and 2-3 guards, again, who were fricking useless.


TL/DR: prisoners fight a lot. Relieved I didn't get shanked.
