Retired Federal Bureau of Prisons chief, author, and host of The Prison Officer Podcast, Michael Cantrell, brings a correctional officer’s perspective to Between the Lines this week. Working under the constant threat of danger, witnessing violent and disturbing behavior, and being ever conscious of attempted manipulation takes an emotional toll on the officer that can affect relationships outside of the walls.
With over 30 years of experience in state and federal penitentiary systems, Cantrell breaks down the responsibilities of a correctional officer, discusses rehabilitation and recidivism, and addresses some of the misconceptions that outsiders have about the incarcerated population. Through his writing, speaking engagements, and podcast, Cantrell is a strong advocate for those “forgotten cops” who maintain order and control of the most violent offenders in society.
