Reply #30: Who makes that decision?

[liberalnurse]

Who assumes the risk for the unpredictable behavior of a known convicted felon who is incarcerated in prison? Do you want to take full responsibility if someone is injured or killed due to lack of safety because it was the nice thing to do?...

I'm trying to express the point that an inmate is assumed to look for every minute opportunity to either "act-out" or escape. I'm not saying they don't deserve all the tender care measures, I do, but it can only be offered in a known secure perimeter. If that is not provided and care must be delivered by non-security bases staff...then these measures are the only way to protect the innocent against the unknown.
