I was under the impression that it was going to be just a slap, and when I saw the female CO's, I assumed that would be the case. However, the male
CO walked in.. and proceeds to slap him, then gives him an *extreme* choke slam onto the floor. Assault of that caliber usually comes packaged with a
small prison sentence, depending on the person's record, under any normal circumstance. I guarantee that guy has a record of abuse and assault.
The CO looked like he just wanted to mess with someone.
There is a small conversation right before it happens, and I believe it is something like this:
CO: I told you not to mess with that. (No idea what "that" is.")
CO (again): Put it back up there.
Detainee (while motioning to put *it* back): *Mumbles something*
Hard slap to the side of the head, then the rather ridiculous choke and slam to the floor.
Ridiculous.
I'm a big fan of the HBO prison drama "Oz", which aired about 10 years go now. It's good drama. Anyway, it's just a (fictional drama) series
about a prison, with hardcore violent criminals, and hardcore corrupt CO's. If a CO did this in that show, they would have gotten rid of him and all
kinds of crap would have been stirred up. I find it kind of sad to see it in real life, such unprovoked and extreme violence.
Puts reality in perspective, when reality is often more disturbing than a (at the time) controversially violent and disturbing television series.
