Chapter 13 DB
Inmates may be placed in administrative detention ( AD) if determined a risk to their safety if
they remain in general population. The difficult decision is when to lock up inmates, or place
them in the SHU, when there is no definite evidence that they are at risk. The following situation
is not uncommon.
An inmate comes into the captain’s office and tells the officer in charge that he is being
pressured to have his wife bring drugs into the prison by a group of inmates. He thinks the
inmates are in a gang. He says they told him if he doesn’t do it, he will be killed. He will not
identify the inmates, because he is afraid that if he does, their fellow gang members will kill him.
He won’t give any more or any specific information, saying that anything he says that can be
traced back to him and result in the other inmates being locked up for investigation will also
result in his being killed. None of the security staff members have had previous encounters with
this inmate, can vouch for his credibility, or have any information to support his story. His case
manager, when contacted, says the inmate had been seeking a transfer to a prison closer to his
home where his wife lives. The case manager told the inmate that that prison was very
overcrowded and that there was a moratorium on transfers for twelve months.

moved to another prison, so they can manipulate the system. Second, just transferring the inmate
does nothing to deal with a gang that is pressuring inmates to bring in drugs, and they will just
try another inmate if this doesn’t work out. So, most prison officials will push the So, most
prison officials will push the inmate to give more specific information to act on the allegation;
but do not want him to be in danger, even if he won’t provide any details.
1) So, what do you do? You have to decide whether you would place him in AD. You
do not want to give in to his manipulations for a transfer if he is not telling the truth.
If you do, other inmates will do the same thing. Yet you can’t ignore his request.
