36 Ex-Cons And Prison Guards Share Their Craziest, Most Unbelievable Stories From Prison

26. Sex offenders are, hands-down, treated the worst.

Former corrections officer here.

Remember the Texas Seven?? That’s the prison I worked at, Connally Unit, although that escape happened about 6 months after I quit.

I was tasked with taking an inmate to the hospital about his abdominal pains, said inmate was a child molester. Turns out someone shoved a jar of peanut butter up his ass. Saw the x-ray with my own eyes, bricks were shat.

They have special lockups for the sex-offenders now b/c the general population tormented them to no end.

27. Yup, that’s terrifying.

Use to be a CO at a facility that housed both mentally insane as well as normal sane inmates. Remember a crazy inmate that camouflaged his face with his own fecal matter. He’d close his eyes and open them really fast saying “BOO.”

28. LOL?

My friend’s father is a guard at the county prison. He said that he was walking along the ground level of the cellblock when an inmate jumped from the second level with bed sheets wrapped around his neck. He used too many sheets and hit the ground full force. He said all of the other inmates burst out laughing at the guy.

29. It’s not uncommon to get bitten in jail too…

Crazy son of a bitch, rotted teeth and just disgusting hygiene all around, attacked a good friend of mine in the prison. He bit right into his leg and took out a sizable chunk. This dude was not “all there” in his head, and his mouth was so germ ridden that they ended up having to remove my friend’s lower leg altogether.

30. This is why temporary prisoners shouldn’t be housed with lifers.

They were transporting two inmates in the back of a squad car to a different max sec prison a few cities away. One of the prisoners was serving multiple life sentences and the other guy was only serving 5 years. The guy serving multiple lifes went complete ape shit nuts and beat the living fuck out of the Indian guy serving 5. The entire car was shaking and you could see the dude just pounding on the other guy with his handcuffs. It took the guards a good minute to see this and react but the Indian dude was dead by the time they got the doors open. That’s why you always keep lifers away from everyone else. They just don’t care.
