27 Prison Guards Confess The Most Disturbing Thing They’ve Dealt With

“Guy sculpted a parrot out of his own poo. He would place it on his shoulder and talk to it all the time. After 3 days the smell was unbearable. On the fourth day, he refused to come out of his cell for a shakedown. He kept threatening to kill his parrot if we came in his cell. The second we opened the door to extract him, he grabs the poo parrot off his shoulder and bites the head off and chews it. That is probably the craziest/nastiest thing I've seen.”

“Hardest thing to deal with was treating them all the same regardless of their charges. I had to treat that guy who got unlucky with a drug charge the exact same as a guy who raped a 5 month old baby girl to death and was arrested because he had to go to the hospital to have the deceased baby removed from his dick.”

“I was doing some IT work at a youth facility, running network lines for cameras. This was in mid February in upstate New York. One kid bashed another's head in with a frozen orange in a sock. He was swinging it at staff and knocked out one of the guards before they took him down. The kid he attacked never regained consciousness. I got to witness this whole thing from 20′ above on a catwalk. Very surreal.”
