So you are telling me that a CO doesnt charge people for crimes committed inside the pen? Apparantly COs don't run investigations and shit to solve stabbings or whatever inside the walls, because they do not "chase bad guys" like normal cops right? If a CO catches a visitor smuggling drugs or whatever they don't arrest them right? I guess a CO wont chase you if you try to escape from jail because they aren't real cops. lol they are cops no matter how you want to slice it, a CO is a COP under a specific jurisdiction. They protect and serve within the walls of the prison just like an ordinary cop on the street. They are peace officers who take a sworn oath just like an ordinary cop, they may not have as much power but they are still cops.
the reality is that you are wrong, its OK if you have potnas that are COs and you want to justify having friends that are cops but what your saying doesn't make sense.

yes. thats what im saying. The pen has its own investigators and judges on call to make a decision on who will be charged with what. Not the C/O.
right..
A security guard will chase u down and detain u if u try to steal bottles or some shit, but that doesnt make them a cop. A bouncer will drag u out of the club by your collar if u act a fool in the club, and that doesnt make them cops either.. they are private citzens like u or me. They can't uphold the law anymore then an average joe on the street can..
I can't speak for you.. but to me a "cop" is someone who works for the government and is paid to drive around ur neighborhood looking to bust the next person.. they actually DO take an oath to uphold the law.. A cop will be the one to take u to a holding cell where the C/O's have to deal wit u. If i get pinched for some trumped up charges or for something hella minor, im not gonna be pissed off at the foolz who are watching over me while Im in jail, im gonna be pissed off at the person who sent me there, the cop, judge and or jury. Dont get me wrong, now a dirty C/O is a dirty C/O and deserve whats comin to em just as if they really were a crooked cop.
some people would be considered an "asset" to have some level of control inside a prison.

I'm knocking the job but they are still in law inforcement. If what you say is true about the investigations teams and what not I'm betting most those guys are COs that worked their way up the ladder. Even if the CO isn't the guy charging folks they are part of the investigations and their recomendations seal peoples fate inside. Alot of guys become COs as a stepping stone to be cops. Saying a CO isnt a cop is like saying a parole officer or a baliff isnt a cop, they are all playing for the same team. If you think about it regular street cops arent the ones busting people for big time crimes unless they catch someone red handed. IMO an average beat cop and a CO are basically the same thing.

Screw Rick Ross
Despite denials, records show rap star worked as corrections officer
JULY 21--Apparently desperate to distance himself from any affiliation with law enforcement, the rapper Rick Ross has recently denounced as fake photos purporting to show him in a former career as a Florida prison guard. But Department of Corrections (DoC) records show that Ross, whose raps detail the Miami gangster lifestyle and his supposed days trafficking cocaine, did, in fact, work as a correctional officer for 18 months. Ross (real name: William Leonard Roberts) was appointed a prison guard in December 1995 at a salary of $22,913.54, according to the below personnel record, which was provided to TSG by Jo Ellyn Rackleff, a DoC spokesperson. The rapper's social security number is identical to that of the jail guard. According to the official document, Ross was earning $25,794.34 when he resigned in June 1997. After graduating from the DoC training academy, Ross was assigned to the South Florida Reception Center in Dade County (the lockup is one of three statewide that serves as an intake facility for new prisoners). When a photo of a uniform-clad Ross surfaced last week on MediaTakeOut.com, the 32-year-old performer claimed to AllHipHop.com that unnamed "online hackers" put "my face when I was a teenager in high school on other peoples' body. If this shit was real don't you think they would have more specifics, like dates and everything?" He added, "Fake pictures are created by the fake, meant to entertain the fake." The photo, which you can find here, shows a 19-year-old Ross at a DoC ceremony (he was part of the department's 60th graduating class). He is pictured shaking hands with Marta Villacorta, who then headed the South Florida Reception Center. Villacorta, now the department's South Florida regional director, was identified by Rackleff, who examined the photo Ross claims was Photoshopped. In a recent videotaped interview, Ross replied, "No, that's not true" when asked if he had worked as a prison guard. He claimed that the phony story was being circulated by detractors upset by his success in the rap world, where, "I came out of nowhere and just took over the streets."

eh, possibly.. but that wouldnt really matter cuz were talkin general C/O and cop comarision.. not investigator/cop.. Id prolly agree wit u an investigator and a cop are pretty much one in the same..
yeap.. but thats being a snitch in general.. i can see where your coming from in the instance of a C/O finding something of yours in a search of your cell.. but callin em jus straight law enforcement is a stretch IMO.
id consider them more of hyped up federally paid security guards. Prisons operate on their Security level and a lot of times are a private institution. A corrections officer can't get off work and go try to solve a crime unless he was a COP as well..
heres what im saying, unless you are being locked up, yes you have to be wary of a C/O if you handlin buisness, my point is that you wouldn't be locked up if it weren't for a cop tossin u in the back of a car and takin u away in the first place.. The foolz that are passin out the mealz and escortin you to get medical treatment aren't responsible for your predicament. I don't know why someone would want to do that for a living tho. Muffuckaz toss shit at them haha!
LOL@ross denying that shit to BTW..

Maybe in california but in AZ cops make signigicantly more than COs do, they have commercials on TV all the time trying to recruit both. They both do alright for the cost of living in phoenix though. A brand new Phoenix area cop is gonna make a starting pay at about 38k a year or so and a CO starts at about 32k. A cop will make more because they get way more OT, a CO will usually pull their 8 hour shift and they are done. California COs make bank though but cops out there probably still end up on top because of their OT
