Correctional Officer (Russ Hamilton)
In this episode, the guys are joined by Russ Hamilton, a former correctional officer with extensive experience in the prison system. Russ shares his journey from starting at San Quentin State Prison to his current role in reentry and rehabilitation work. He discusses the challenges and dangers faced by correctional officers, the complexities of prison dynamics; and shares some wild stories about fights, riots, and ... well, other crazy prison stuff.
You can find Russ's latest book here: Killing Complacency: Tactical Awareness for Correctional Professionals. You can also check out his Substack here. He's also on YouTube where he helps support other correctional officers on TierTalk. For more on the psychology involving corrections, check out Inmate Manipulation Decoded: A Definitive Guide to Understanding the Manipulation Process.
