(Phoenix, AZ) Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio ordered parts of the maximum
security 4th Avenue Jail be placed on indefinite lockdown as racial tensions rise –
tensions brought on by orders from the Mexican Mafia chieftains who appear to be
trying to control the downtown jail. Arpaio’s move to lockdown the jail aims to
protect not only officers but inmates as well.
According to the Sheriff’s jail intelligence unit, super max Mexican Mafia inmates
housed in the closed custody unit of the 4th Avenue jail are putting out orders to all
Hispanic inmates to refuse to be housed with black inmates.
Chieftains, as they call themselves, are also demanding racial fights occur. And fights
have been on the increase, Arpaio says. Detention officers have intervened only later
to be threatened. And last Monday, a large scale fight involving 25 Hispanic and black
inmates broke out before detention officers could quell the problem. No serious
injuries were reported.

I'm pretty sure that as long as Joe's breathing, he'll stomp that shit into the dirt.

Serious question - Do corrections officers/guards have to wear their name tags and be referred to by name when on the job? Couldn't they have work names like telemarketers or become Mr.'s Green, White, Blue, etc for persec?
Remind me not to spend anytime down at 4th ave.

For filing greivences, you have to give the inmates/children your name
We never wore nametags, but everyone(inmates) knew who you were regardless. 400~ man jail

That's fine with me. If I was in the big house, I'd rather be with my own kind anyway.
