Hard Time: A Look At The Law Inside The Walls

53. For The Uniform: Favoritism and Corruption


Listen Later

The job is polticial whether you like it or not. Robert Gonzalez, NYC's Correction Department training chief resigned because he refused to rescind transfer orders for COs who were breaking policy and not doing their jobs. His boss Lynelle Maginley-Liddie got a call from city hall. Gonzalez refused to bow to political pressure leveraged upon him by his subordinates. But how does that even happen? The entire training division suffers thanks to these four shitty officers.


The story is important because this show is about survival-- not just from assaults, policies, PTSD-- but also ethics. What kind of officer will you be? The kind that looks the other way? Or the kind that sticks your neck out for what is right? It's hardly ever a happy ending in government.


Jon and Jake also have a weird conversation about jackets and boots for some reason, but it's been moved to the end so we won't be mad if you bail early.
