| Abstract
|
:
|
For those in custody, one of the potential collateral consequences of incarceration is an increased risk of sexual victimization by either staff or other inmates. Correctional administrators regularly confront the problem of inmate-on-inmate and staff-on-inmate forced sexual compliance in the institutions they manage. In correctional settings, the power dynamic is heavily weighted against those imprisoned because victims cannot hide or escape from their perpetrators and are dependent upon correctional staff to intervene, support, and protect them. Prison-based sexual abuse takes its toll on the victims, family and friends of victims, witnesses, other inmates, correctional staff members, taxpayers, and the community at large. The abuse renders a correctional environment less safe for both inmates and staff, costs taxpayers money, and undermines the rehabilitation goals of a correctional setting.
