Last year, a fire at the mismanaged facility left several officers and inmates injured. Now on the verge of federal takeover, the city's most ignominious jail is trying to fix its problems. By blaming officers, making uninformed policy changes and fundamentally misunderstanding how a shift inside a jail happens. Riker's Island-- where you can get disciplined for writing a concerned e-mail to leadership and fired for not being in two places at once, and where solitary confinement has been abolished, will find fresh new ways to make life hell for the officers who work there, and Jon has HAD it-- this rant has been pent up and looking for somewhere to go for ten years.
