Nevada Corrections director requests 264 more guards
Prisons need more staff to control inmates
Corrections director requests 264 more guards | Nevada Appeal | Carson City, NV Director of Corrections Glen Whorton has asked the governor and budget office to increase his staff of correctional officers by 264 - a jump of nearly 20 percent from the current staff of 1,362. Whorton said the recommendation would cost an estimated $27.5 million over the next two years. He made the statement in a response to an executive branch audit that recommended studying and possibly changing the formula used to calculate staffing levels in the Department of Corrections. While the inmate population grew 15 percent in the past four years, the number of crimes reported within the prison system is up 113 percent. |

Re: Nevada Corrections director requests 264 more guards
I simply couldn't imagine a prison being short handed...lol. I am not sure if I have ever worked in one that had enough people to perform the job safely and securely.
