There is nothing that goes on in a prison that guards are not aware of. Seeding informants in every cell block gives guards extra eyes and ears. Cameras are located in strategic positions. Bed counts of inmates are made regularly. The eyes and ears of any prison are supported by prison snitches. The ratio is usually one snitch for every 25 inmates. Each snitch is recruited from two of the major ethnic prison groups. Snitches are in constant contact with the guards. Even minor unacceptable behavior is immediately reported. Any inmate that attempts to rape another will be immediately reported and arrested. If found guilty he will be given 10 extra years to serve. That time will be spent in solitary confinement. If rape was widespread in prisons, where are the arrest records? If they existed they would be made public. Prison rape is a myth and a hoax.
It is has been proven that the best way to prevent prison violence is by giving inmates something to lose. The opportunity to make a few bucks at a prison job and commissary privileges is important. But what is also important is a safe environment. Every inmate wants to know that he can sleep well at night without the fear of being gang raped or turned into a prison bitch.
