Through a series of factual, real-life incidents that occurred in prisons throughout the state of Florida, the author, Gary York, will take you inside the prison's inner circle of crime and corruption, revealing true accounts of prison drug trade, extortion, embezzlement, and even death at the hands of inmates and corrupt staff members. Corruption that runs so deep the honest staff members do not know who to trust. You will also read about the experiences of retired correctional officer staff members who tracked down and recaptured escapees and come away with firsthand knowledge of the dangers encountered by our brave public servants during prison riots. After reading these stories, you will probably ask yourself this question: Has corruption in our entire United States prison system spun completely out of control? Dr. Joycelyn M. Pollock is using chapter 23 of "Inside The Inner Circle", "Causa Mortis, Suicide or Assisted Suicide", in her college text book "Ethical Dilemmas and Decisions in Criminal Justice.
