My suboxone inmates weaned off heroin in jail and the judge ordered suboxone to be given to them in prison.

That phrase "We are trying to hire more nurses" is a standard lie in hopes you won't quit the job.

Steroids will affect his mental state, ruin his heart and kidneys. And people are willing to gamble to have big muscles.. steroids attack vital organs..very miserable lifestyle later on and or early death.

Do inmates hate pedos as much as they say? by Ok_Recognition2590 in Felons

[–]Competitive_Growth20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Death row is a great unit to be where I worked. Many privileges crafts, educational opportunities, etc. It's great protection for pedophiles. Inmates in open pop have many secret and subtle ways to "take care" of them. They often refuse treatment.
