Most COs would feel the same...the problem is, here in Oklahoma, we have on one prison facility where all pedos are housed. They cannot have them in gen pop, and they do not have enough “catch out” space to segregate them safely, so our DOC transitioned a compete medium security facility for the sole purpose of housing pedos and child abusers. There are also some other “sex crimes” offenders there, but not enough to cause a problem. It has saved the state a lot of money by doing this as it slowed down lawsuits from families of pedos killed by other inmates. Several years ago, we had one pedo who was a priest/preacher (not sure of his religion) who they had in “catch out.” He didn’t like the restrictions of PC so his family threatened to sue the state if they didn’t move him to gen pop. The state tried to convince them they couldn’t ensure his safety, but the inmate and his family would not relent, so the pedo preacher was moved to gen pop. Well, he was dead within an hour of being moved to a regular housing unit. So...the state changed its handling of pedos.
Sounds like a proper solution from the state’s standpoint. The only good solution for these horrid people is execution.
Did not know that.
I would have once thought Oklahoma was more practical in dealing with problem people.
Said it before, say it again, Oklahoma is not conservative, just mostly anarchist and libertarian.
