PWR - B.C.C.O SOP

BLAINE COUNTY CORRECTIONAL OFFICE

This SOP outlines the procedures and protocols for the operation of Bolingbroke Penitentiary and Alcatraz Federal Prison, focusing on inmate management, disciplinary actions, and CO conduct. These guidelines ensure a safe and orderly environment for both inmates and staff.

———————————

1.0 Mission Statement

1.1 |

Blaine County Correctional Office is a sub-division within the Blaine County Sheriff’s Office tasked with the oversight and security of all Correctional Facilities within the state of San Andreas.

1.2 |

With determination, integrity, and commitment, Blaine County Sheriff's Office stays true to modern beliefs for inmate reintegration within society. We stay true to focusing on humane and reasonable accommodations to those held within our facilities

2.0 Chain of Command

2.1 |

To follow Chain of Command means to respect the order in which BCCO has been carefully designed. Orders should be followed immediately and without question. Exceptions being made for orders that are deemed to be unethical or improper. These circumstances are to be reported to BCCO/BCSO High Command and/or PD High Command.

2.2 |

The BCCO Rank structure ensures that BCCO have a structure to follow in the Chain of Command, when/if an issue arises. Ranks in BCCO are gained through experience, time, dedication and knowledge, in accordance with the BCCO and Police Department SOP’s.

2.3 |

Blaine County Correctional Office, though within the confines of Blaine County Sheriff’s Office, will operate separately and follow their own ranking structure. BCCO HC will decide who will be promoted and when. Since BCCO is still under the control of BCSO, all ranks and callsigns will carry over to BCCO, however responsibilities will differ depending on your ranking within the Sub-division itself.

3.0 Officer Requirements and Expectations

3.1 |

All Correctional Officers must obey the Statement of Values and Code of Conduct and Ethics.

3.2 |

Correctional Officers must remain respectful, ethical, and professional when conducting their duties. Even when off duty, the police officer must continue to reflect their stance in the United Police Force as a whole.

3.3 |

All Correctional Officers must be following the uniform guidelines ONLY while on duty as BCCO. This can be found within the #bcco-uniforms channel.

3.4 |

The eligible rank to apply for BCCO is Senior Deputy+ in BCSO and requires the clearance from a BCCO Captain+ before activating as a Correctional Officer.

3.5 |

Correctional Officers are to be held to the highest standards. Officers are to be working together at all times while in or representing a Correctional Facility. Deputies working on behalf of BCCO will still be required to follow UPD SOP at all times.

3.6 |

Use the radio system for clear and concise communication. Avoid using radio channels for personal conversations. Radio communication will still be held to UPD Radio Etiquette standards.

3.7 |

Report all unusual or suspicious activities to BCCO Supervisors+ immediately. Document these reports thoroughly.

4.0 Duties and Responsibilities

4.1 |

Correctional Officers are to operate as normal LEO’s when not on duty as BCCO. However, Correctional Officers are permitted to arrest and fine individuals found to be committing indictable and convictable crimes. Correctional Officers are also permitted to fine individuals found to be breaking common petty crimes such as, but not limited to, traffic violations. CO’s are still expected to act as Deputies when not acting as Correctional Officers

4.2 |

While working as a Correctional Officer, a Deputy is not to patrol as Law Enforcement. It is not permitted to act as both at the same time. However, switching to focus on one over the other is allowed.

4.3 |

Blaine County Correctional Office is responsible for overseeing criminal inmates held within Bolingbroke Penitentiary and Alcatraz Federal Prison. BCCO must avoid breakouts and violence within the confines of our Correctional Facilities.

4.4 |

Correctional Officers must keep the inmates fed and in good health within the confines of our facilities. Knowingly avoiding the protection of lives and the safety of others will result in punitive action.

4.5 |

Correctional Officers are permitted to assist PD in the city if officers inside the city are experiencing major losses on PD’s end. Correctional Officers are to serve as a backup of sorts. However, if clocked in as a Correctional Officer, priority must be the Correctional facilities.

4.6 |

Correctional Officers are permitted to allow time added and time removed. BCCO holds the right to reward time served in increments due to good behavior. The same in return with bad behavior. BCCO holds the right to increase time to a sentence within reason. Time is outlined below:

Correctional Officer Given Tasks:

Tasks for time off:

~ Per Lap Ran - 2 Minutes

~ Each Sit-Up Rep. - 5 Minutes

~ Per Game of Basketball - 15 Minutes

~ Winning a match of UNO - 20 Minutes

~ Winning a Match of Dice - 15 Minutes

Correctional Officers may take time off for good behavior and get creative with activities at the prison for time off as well. This must be done within reason, and excessive time off (30-45 Minutes+) will be investigated and punitive action may be taken if found unreasonable.

Solitary punishment for inmates:

~ Assault of an Inmate - 10 Minutes

~ Murder/Attempt of an Inmate - 20 Minutes

~ Assault of a CO - 15 Minutes

~ Murder/Attempt of a CO - 30-40 Minutes

~ Restricted Area - 10 Minutes

~ Attempting to Escape Prison - 30 Minutes

For sending someone for Solitary, a Correctional Officer must take an inmate into the main prison, put them in a cell and lock the door - making sure they have food and not bleeding.

Correctional Officers cannot antagonize the inmates. Let them do their jobs and if they want time off, they can do tasks or built-in prison jobs.

IMPORTANT

Use of Force as a C.O:

If an inmate has used non-lethal force against you or another inmate, DO NOT SHOOT them! Use your non-lethal items such as a Taser or Beanbag, and cuff them.

If an inmate is in a restricted area, such as the prison roof or stair cases, DO NOT SHOOT THEM! Use non-lethal unless told by BCCO/BCSO HC to do so.

If an inmate or outside suspects have used lethal against a CO or another inmate, lethal will be authorized.

5.0 Activity Requirements

5.1 |

Correctional Officers activity is to be treated as normal BCSO Deputies. This means that the requirement for activity will be the same as BCSO’s hour requirements. However they will coincide with one another. While clocked in as BCCO, it will count towards time as a BCSO as long as you are acting as a CO during your shift.

5.2 |

Correctional Officers will have their own location to clock in, and clocking in as BCSO will not be necessary. This will allow for transparency and tracking for promotions or punitive action if necessary.

5.3 |

If there are not a lot of LEO’s on duty, only 1 CO is needed on duty. If there is a high volume of PD on radio, a limit of 4 to 5 Correctional Officers are needed at Bolingbroke, not including those tasked with Alcatraz. You must not be clocked in as BCCO or be wearing BCCO uniform if on Patrol as a BCSO Deputy.

5.4 |

There will only be a select group of trusted and non-biased individuals tasked with overseeing and responding to Alcatraz. This group will not consist of anyone with ties to Gangs or Guilds, even if not with the same character. This is to avoid any chances of bias and corruption.

6.0 Equipment

6.1 |

Equipment

PD Drone	Beanbag (Non-Lethal)
Taser (Non-Lethal)	Pistol (Lethal)
AR Rifle (Lethal)	-

(this is subject to change as time progresses. This also does not guarantee full access to each equipment)

Drones: Drones are able to get an aerial view on a perimeter. This equipment allows for Night Vision, Thermal Vision, Aerial Spotlight, and Identification Analyzation. This is a vital tool for securing any perimeter. The amount being used at one time will be directed by a Correctional Officers or Law Enforcement High Command depending on what a situation may call for.

7.0 Contraband

7.1 |

Inmates may obtain permitted contraband such as radios, phones, and food from Correctional Officers.

7.2 |

Inmates may not possess any contraband, even those listed above, if not cleared by a CO. A Correctional Officer holds the right to withhold any contraband not approved.

7.3 |

Contraband banned at all times, such as but not limited to, drugs, weapons, or bolt cutters are to be confiscated immediately. Corruption by allowance of these contraband will result in immediate punitive action within UPD as a whole.

7.4 |

All confiscations involving contraband will incur fines and/or charges added to their sentence.

7.5 |

Correctional Officers can conduct routine and random searches of inmates and their cells to prevent the possession of unauthorized items - continuously monitoring inmate behavior to prevent and address any violations promptly.

8.0 Emergency Response

8.1 |

Fights, Escapes, and Medical Emergencies: Respond immediately and escalate according to the facility's chain of command.

8.2 |

Use of Force: Use the minimum amount of force necessary to maintain order to allow for EMS to intervene. Utilize non-lethal methods whenever possible.

8.3 |

Both Bolingbroke and Alcatraz have an Infirmary that both Inmates and Correctional Officers can utilize to ensure their safety.

Final Note

Adherence to these SOPs is crucial for maintaining order, safety, and fairness within Bolingbroke Penitentiary. All staff members and inmates are expected to comply with these standards to ensure a well-functioning correctional facility.
