Oral Arguments for the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit
Freeman v. Unit Manager J Lincalis
Today in their special series about How To Make it In W.A, with our local film industry about to get very busy with the new studios being built in Malaga, Clairsy & Lisa spoke to Lake Bovell who is a Unit Manager. What is a Unit Manager? You'll find out here plus how Sacha Baron-Cohen helped boost her career.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Clairsy once took his mum to a Kenny G concert and while he thought he was going to hate it, he ended up enjoying it so the guys opened the phones to ask you, What gig did you enjoy way more than you expected to. Barra was in to talk sport and had all the washup from the NRL Grand Final, our Women cricketers are off to a great start in the Women's T20 World Cup, in basketball it's not a great weekend for the Perth Wildcats or the Eagles and Dockers in the AFLW plus Barra asks Clairsy & Lisa some of the bizarre questions Australia's best teenage footballers are asked during the National Combine week and their answers are,well, revealing. In The Shaw Report, Anne Hathaway confirms the return of The Princess Diaries after 20 years plus Keanu Reeves makes his debut as a race car driver and it's not for a movie role. How To Make It In W.A continued this morning with Clairsy & Lisa going behind the scenes again and this time talking to Lake Bovell who has made a career from being a Unit Manager. She explains to the guys exactly what that is and what the job entails.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I met my guest today in Club Med Playa Blanca in 1997 when he was a G.M. and I was a Landsports G.O. It is because of this podcast that he reached out to me roughly 25 years later. He said that meeting me and the Rock Climbing G.O. in Playa Blanca, Claude Gagnon, inspired him to apply to Club Med. His first season was in Club Med Ixtapa in May of 1997 as an Archery G.O., with “Toutoune” as the CDV and “Godo” as the Chief of Sports. From Montreal and now living in Alberta, please help me welcome to the show, Rich Reichman!! Rich only did one season in Club Med and explains why at the end of the interview. Luckily for us, he has a very vivid memory of that first season! Rich is kind enough to share a lot of stories with us. Knowing there was not a weight room in Ixtapa, Rich brought two 70-pound detachable dumbbells in his suitcase!! I love this story so much that I asked Rich to not spare any details!! Other stories are Rich getting an archery injury early on in his season (but not what you're thinking), a nerve-wracking sports demonstration set to the tune of Bryan Adams' Everything I Do (I Do It For You), to an animation prank gone awry, to a Fire and Water show wardrobe malfunction, to hanging out with Blair Underwood, Rich has got some stories! For the last 14 years, Rich has been a Unit Manager in the ER, ICU, CCU, Medicine, and Operating Room and is currently in Endoscopy and we talk a little about that. Blair the nurse in Ixtapa was partly Rich's inspiration for becoming a nurse himself and we delve into that as well. We talk about the 3 things he misses the most about Club Med and his favorite Crazy Sign. If you were a 90s G.O., then this episode is for you! Please enjoy this interview with Rich! **My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora and Listen Notes.

In today's interview, we focused mostly on her roles as a leader for multiple troops and service unit manager.

Growing up on a small island province in the north Philippines with no electricity or modern amenities, he dreamed of being an astronaut or a pilot and was the valedictorian of his high school class. Coming from a very close-knit family, that depended on his support, he pivoted his initial aspirations to a focus on taking jobs that allowed him to help his family and hone his natural ability for communication and nurturing relationships. After spending most of his earnings simply keeping his car to travel to and from work, he became frustrated and was introduced by an advertisement he saw to a career in insurance. 7 years later he's a Million Dollar Round Table Producer, a Unit Manager with a multi-national insurance organization, and a restauranteur. In our conversation, he speaks on his childhood, his career journey, and being the first person in his entire family to have a life insurance policy...all because he got a license.

From the book Prepare: What Defendants Should Know about Court, Sentencing, and Prison Chapter 11: What Should I Know About Staff Hierarchy in the Bureau of Prisons Get Your free copy by visiting PrisonProfessors.com or sending an email to Team@PrisonProfessors.com Navigating the bureaucracy of prison requires at least a cursory knowledge of the key players and their roles. This section provides a basic overview to consider for those going inside. Bureaucratic Structure: Our nation incarcerates more people per capita than any other nation on earth. Millions of people have gone through the system, and thousands of people work in corrections. It’s run like any other bureacracy, modeled in a hierarchical formation. The positions are more important than the individual, and the individuals rely upon program statements and policy statements to govern operations. The organizational hierarchy is clearly defined and much more formal. Staff members that work alongside each other do not address each other with first names. Instead, we hear a lot “Mr.” and “Ms,” as if first names are offensive. As stated previously, our team’s experience is with The Federal Bureau of Prisons, which is organized under the Executive Branch of Government. For those that need a quick refresher course in civics, we have three branches of government in our country: The Legislative System: Divided by two houses of Congress, the Senate and the House. They pass laws all citizens must follow. The Judicial System: Where judges interpret whether the laws have been applied appropriately. The Executive Branch: Administrators and functionaries of the government. The President of the United States leads the Executive Branch, and he appoints the Attorney General. On recommendation of the Attorney General, we have the Director of the Bureau of Prisons. The director oversees the BOP bureaucracy. According to www.BOP.gov, in 2019 the federal prison bureaucracy includes 122 Bureau of Prisons facilities. Approximately 37,000 staff members oversee 184,000 people in prison. Obviously, such a huge system requires many rules and regulations. By adhering to those rules and regulations, they keep order. Those living inside can feel like cogs in a machine, without a common humanity. The Regional System: The BOP operates six regions, including: Mid-Atlantic Region—prisons in West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, Maryland, Kentucky, and Tennessee North Central Region—prisons in Illinois, Minnesota, Colorado, Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Indiana, and South Dakota Northeast Region—prisons in Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, and New Jersey South Central Region—prisons in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana Southeast Region—prisons in Georgia, Florida, Alabama South Carolina, Puerto Rico, and Mississippi Western Region—prisons in California, Hawaii, Nevada, Arizona, Oregon, and Washington Each region listed above has a single Regional Director. The regional director oversees policies and operations in each of the many institutions scattered around their respective territories. The various Directors of the Bureau of Prisons represent the highest levels of the BOP's Executive Staff. Few people in prison have any interaction with them. Occasionally directors tour the facilities. When they do, local staff exert great efforts to shield those leaders from interactions with people serving time in prison. Prisoners can think of the directors as managing from the allegorical ivory tower. Although each director likely spent many years working in institutions, once they reach the pinnacle of the BOP bureaucracy, they isolate themselves from people that lower level staff members interact with on a daily basis. Local Management Wardens: Each institution has its own chief executive. In most cases this position is called warden in the staff hierarchy. During our team’s extensive experience of serving time in prisons of every security level, we’ve been associated with multiple wardens. Each warden has his or her own management style. The most effective wardens—from our perspective, manage by walking around. They make themselves available to talk with the people they’re responsible for confining. Wardens in secure institutions stand around the cafeteria during the noon meal, which is the most popular meal in every prison. A few times each month, they may visit camps that are adjacent to the secure prisons to make themselves to people classified as minimum-security. Wardens call it standing mainline, referring to the people that wait in the long lines for their daily meals. All prisoners are free to approach the warden, or any of the other staff members who stand mainline, to discuss a grievance or an issue of importance to the individual. Many federal prisons are located within complexes that include several institutions of different security levels. Those complexes may have multiple wardens. Each institution has its own warden. But there would also be a complex warden, that oversees the entire complex. For example, the Federal Prison Complex in Colorado includes the following institutions: ADX Super-max Penitentiary USP High Security Penitentiary FCI Medium-Security Prison FPC Minimum-Security Prison Florence includes one complex warden two wardens, and one camp supervisor. Executive Assistant An Executive Assistant serves each warden. More than anyone else, executive assistants shadow the warden. If a person approaches a warden, the executive assistant will listen to every word and possibly take notes. Few prisoners have any reason to interact directly with an executive assistant. The executive assistant is frequently the only staff member besides the warden who is authorized to speak with members of the media. Prisoners who interact with representatives of the media may have limited interactions with the executive assistant. For the most part, this isn’t a staff member that will have much relevance to a person in prison. Associate Wardens: Most federal prisons hold in excess of 1,000 men. Some wardens are in control of institutions with more than 4,000 men and several hundred staff members. As the chief executive officers of these institutions, wardens have several colleagues beneath them on the organizational chart that manage various aspects of the prison. In the prisons where we've been held, wardens rely upon associate wardens that concentrate on their own segments of the prison complex. Some typical associate warden positions include the following: Associate Warden of Programs (AW-P) Associate Warden of Industries and Education (AW-I&E) Associate Warden of Operations (AW-O) Associate Warden of Transportation (AW-T) Associate Warden of Custody (AW-C) The associate wardens, too, frequently stand mainline and make themselves available to speak with inmates who are concerned with departments under AW control. All members of the bureaucracy observe the clearly-defined chain of command, and associate wardens usually direct prisoners to seek assistance from staff members a bit lower in the bureaucratic hierarchy. Department Heads: Think of the prison as a miniature city, separated from the greater society by a series of boundaries. Just as in cities outside, the miniature prison city has various departments—like the department of housing, of health, and public works. In prison, the people leading these departments are department heads. Department heads report to their respective associate warden. Department Heads are much more immediately accessible to prisoners than higher members of the executive staff. Some of the Department Heads include: Unit Managers—One or more dormitory buildings comprise a housing unit, and the unit manager acts as a mini-warden over these units. He oversees matters related to inmate management, including the unit team (see below), each prisoner's central file, and each prisoner's release preparation. Supervisor of Education—In charge of administrating the education and recreational programs. Supervisor of Health Services—In charge of the medical and dental services. Captain—In charge of Lieutenantsand custody staff. Supervisor of Food Services—In charge of the meal preparations. Supervisor of Facilities—In charge of maintaining the facility. All department heads have a coterie of staff members that work beneath them. Those staff members interact directly with prisoners. Prisoners that have complaints against staff members are supposed to seek a resolution with the staff member first. If they’re not satisfied with the response they receive, the prisoners are supposed to work their way up the chain of command. If a grievance remains unresolved, prisoners have access to the administrative remedy procedure which we describe in the next module. Unit Team: With individual prisons holding well over a thousand men together, it would be impractical for the warden to know each of the prisoners under his control. Each federal prison, therefore, uses the Unit Management System. By assigning people to smaller, more manageable groups within the prison, the system keeps better control. The group of staff members with whom prisoners have the most frequent contact (except their immediate work-detail supervisor) are those who serve on their unit team. On a typical prison compound (USPs, FCIs, and FPCs), the prisoners are free to mix in the general population. They eat in the same chow hall, participate in educational programs together, and share the same recreational facilities. Each inmate is assigned to a particular housing unit. Those housing units are restricted and considered off limits for people assigned to different housing units. Each housing unit is led by a Unit Manager. The unit manager is a department head that presides over case managers and counselors—the other members of the Unit Team. BOP Program Statement 5321.07 tells us that the unit team is also supposed to include an Education Advisor, and a Unit Psychologist. In our experience, those staff members have minimal interaction with people on the unit team. Case Managers: Case managers monitor progress of the prisoners assigned to their case load. They keep track of the prisoner's custody and classification scoring, his release date. If the prisoner requests a transfer to another institution, the case manager is responsible for initiating this request. Every three years, or sooner if there is some change in the prisoner's status (transfer or nearing release), the case manager also prepares a progress report, which describes the prisoner's institutional adjustment. When staff members activate programs within the First Step Act, case managers will document progress that prisoners make toward program completion. Those completions will result in “Earned Time Credits,” which they can redeem through various undefined incentive programs that should include transfer to home confinement. Counselors: Contrary to the title, counselors do very little in the way of counseling. Rather, their duties include overseeing the visiting lists and prisoner work details. They also may have a role in monitoring compliance with the Financial Responsibility Plan, assigning quarters, overseeing the sanitation of the unit, taking care of package mailouts, and participating on the Unit Disciplinary Committee. Team Meetings: People in prison that have more than two years remaining to serve are scheduled to meet with their unit team members twice each year. People with fewer than 24 months to serve meet with their unit team members more frequently. Usually, a person’s unit manager, case manager, and counselor are present during these team meetings. People in prisons shouldn't expect to learn much during these routine team meetings. Although rules may require attendance in team meetings, there is not much interaction or guidance with regard to what steps people can take to improve their status. During the meeting, the case manager verbally reads for everyone present whatever documentation the unit team has accumulated since the previous team meeting. This documentation may include the person’s work performance rating; his disciplinary record; his progress on the FRP plan; and whatever programs the individual has completed. Newer people in the system may feel let down after a team meeting. They come into the meeting with hopes that they will find some meaning as to what they are supposed to be doing in prison. To many staff members, the only matters of importance include: The passing of time, The avoidance of disciplinary problems, and the payment schedule toward the FRP plan. The counselor's function during the meeting is to describe a person’s participation in the FRP program, and passes the prisoner a copy of his visiting list. The unit manager asks the prisoner whether he has any questions or requests. In most instances, the Team Meeting lasts fewer than 10 minutes. Although the applicable Program Statement indicates that the "Unit Manager is responsible for coordinating individual programs tailored to meet the particular needs of inmates in the unit," and that "such programming often is highly innovative and complex," Our team’s experience has not shown that to be the case. People that are determined to grow must become resourceful. They should become skillful at finding opportunities to do so on their own. They should anticipate some level of interference from staff members who view any type of activity that is "highly innovative and complex" as a threat to the status quo. As part of a large and complex law-enforcement bureaucracy, all prison systems revere uniformity.

She explained how important her seat at the table was not only to her, but to all of those who will come after her. For all you leaders out there, Mrs. Powell cautions you with the advice, “The worst thing a leader can do is play the victim.” She then continued with letting us know how important it is to authentically be yourself in whatever field you are in. “Everyone does not get to go on your professional journey with you.” Mrs. Powell continued to explain that everything you do everyday is leadership. If you have any sort of leadership quality, you are always leading by example, with or without a title attached to your name. Overall, Ms. Powell gave us tons of amazing leadership tidbits. Here are a few to remember: Treat people the way you would want your loved ones to be treated, find time to just do you, have a great core group of friends you can trust, tell people no (politely), study harder than the person next to you, be open to change and fall in love with feedback. Lastly, give grace to people, stay in the present, and never let anyone make you do something that makes you question your integrity.

I'm Michael Santos with Prison Professors. Along with my partners, Shon Hopwood and Justin Paperny, we're glad to provide more information about how to prepare for the prison journey. Earlier episodes have given extensive biographical information on us. Complete your own due diligence. You'll see why we're exceptionally well qualified to help anyone who is going into the system. More importantly, we're well qualified to help people who want to get out of the prison system successfully. Each of us succeeded after prison because we understood how to make good decisions as we worked our way through the journey. Always remember, the right decision at the wrong time is the wrong decision. This episode is part of our series that we're calling how to prepare for prison. In the previous episode, we explained a bit about the process. As Dr. Stephen Covey advised in his best-selling book, it's always best to seek to understand before we seek to be understood. In this segment of the Prison Professors podcast, we're going to discuss the importance of understanding stakeholders in the criminal justice system. Federal Prison Hierarchy To succeed in the federal prison system, it's crucial to understand how it operates. Our partner, Shon Hopwood, tells a story that might help us illustrate the point. When Shon began serving his sentence for armed bank robbery, he wanted out. Many people in prison want out. Shon read a case that highlighted a favorable decision. He thought the legal ruling might apply to him. Shon wrote a motion and he filed his motion in a court that he thought would grant relief. The judge refused to accept Shon's motion. Instead, the judge offered advice. He suggested that if Shon wanted to get relief in court, it would behoove him to file in an appropriate court that would have jurisdiction on his case. Obviously, Shon went on to master the judicial system. As Steve Kroft of 60 Minute said, while serving his sentence, Shon became the most successful “jailhouse” lawyer in history. The legal briefs that he wrote for other prisoners resulted in victories in the district courts, circuit courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court. His legal victories changed laws and resulted in liberty for many people in federal prison. But if Shon did not learn how to master federal prison first, he would not have succeeded in mastering the federal judiciary, or become a skilled jailhouse lawyer. We must take first steps first. And for people going into the prison system, it's essential to understand how the Bureau of Prisons operates. Branches of Government Like the federal courts, the Federal Bureau of Prisons is a massive bureaucracy. Many years may have passed since some of our readers took a class in civics. As a quick reminder, our nation has three bodies of government. They include the following branches: The Legislative Branch The Judicial Branch The Executive Branch Our elected members of Congress make up the Legislative Branch of government. They include representatives from each of the 500+ districts in the United States, and they include the two senators that represent each state. Those members vote on legislation in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Once they're in agreement, the legislative bills go to the President. If the President signs the legislative bills, they become laws. In our country, we have more than 90 federal Judicial Districts. For example, in California, there are four separate federal Judicial Districts—including the Northern District Court, the Central District Court, the Southern District Court, and the Eastern District Court. Each of those Districts is part of a Circuit. We separate those Circuits by geographic regions. For example , California is in the Ninth Judicial Circuit. New York is in the Second Judicial Circuit. We have the U.S. Supreme Court that presides over all Circuit and District Courts. We have more than 1,000 federal judges that preside over the various courts. Each of the judges strives to ensure that people receive due process—meaning, the judges strive to apply fairness in the courts for all. The Executive Branch of government oversees the many different applications of government. Our president appoints people who oversee the different departments. For our purposes, we know that the Attorney General of the United States oversees the Department of Justice. And the Attorney General of the United States oversees the Director of the Bureau of Prisons. For that reason, we must understand how the hierarchy operates. Politics and Prisoners: Earlier, I encouraged you to complete your due diligence on my partners and me. That way you could assess the veracity of our claim to have mastered our time in federal prison. It takes a lot of discipline to grow in prison. In my case, I went through 26 years. By the time that I met our co-founder Justin Paperny in the Taft Federal Prison Camp, our country was going through a historic election. The economy was in the tank, sliding into the worst recession in recent memory. Unemployment was on the rise. Justin asked me why I followed the political race so closely. As a prisoner, I explained, we must live with decisions that come down from the top. The president's perspective on governing will influence the policies that he wants to set. As a prisoner, we must live with those policies. If the president believes that people have a capacity to change, the president will appoint an Attorney General that shares that liberal viewpoint. If the president believes that we need to preserve the systems that are in place, then the president will appoint an Attorney General that shares such a conservative viewpoint. Policy shifts in prison will reflect the perceptions of both the president and the Attorney General. To illustrate, let us provide two recent examples of such change. The Second Chance Act provided prison administrators with new discretion regarding halfway house placement. Prior to the Second Chance Act, leaders in The Bureau of Prisons could authorize prisoners to serve the final six months of their sentences in a halfway house. After The Second Chance Act, leaders in The Bureau of Prisons could authorize prisoners to serve the final 12 months of their sentences in a halfway house. Obviously, from a prisoner's perspective, 12 months in a halfway house would be better than six months in a halfway house. But it was up to the Bureau of Prisons to apply the law. The U.S. Congress passed The Second Chance Act. But leadership in the BOP has discretion. When President Obama was in office, the Attorney General was Eric Holder. Under that administration, people in prison could have some influence on how much halfway house time they could receive. As a master of federal prison, I succeeded in putting myself on a pathway to get the full 12 months of halfway house. Similarly, as a master in the federal prison system, Justin succeeded in getting the maximum halfway house placement that was available to him. In 2017, President Donald Trump appointed Jeff Sessions to serve as the Attorney General. Both President Trump and Attorney General Sessions had a different perspective. President Trump and AG Sessions had a conservative perspective, meaning that they believed that people should serve the maximum amount of time in federal prison. The 2017 administration cut funding to halfway houses. But a master of federal prison would know how to cope with such change. To prevail on maximum halfway house time—or any other matter pertaining to federal prison—Prison Professors urges people to understand the system. Pursue a strategy to get the best possible outcome, depending upon the political philosophy of the administration in power. The strategy that may result in success during a conservative administration may differ from the strategy that could result in success in a liberal administration. To master federal prison quickly, make sure that you understand the political philosophy on both a macro and a micro level. Directors of the Bureau of Prisons: The Bureau of Prisons is a massive organization. It employs more than 40,000 staff members that serve in six different regions. Those regions include federal prisons in most states, halfway houses in all states, regional offices, training centers, and headquarters in Washington D.C. The Director of the Bureau of Prisons presides over the entire bureaucracy. He reports to the Attorney General of the United States. For the nearly 200,000 federal prisoners, it's important to understand the different roles in the BOP. What is the role of the Director? Well, the Director must make sure that the prison system is operating in accordance with the wishes of the Attorney General. And the Attorney General wants the Director to operate the Bureau of Prisons in accordance with the political philosophy of the President. The Director is not going to express concern for individual prisoner issues. Rather, the Director focuses on systemic policies. When prisoners attempt to seek relief from the Director, the prisoner reveals a lack of understanding for how the system operates. Masters understand the system. And they learn how to succeed, given the limitations of the system itself. Unless a prisoner wants to advocate for systemic change, it doesn't make sense for him to advance arguments at the highest levels of the Bureau of Prisons. In fact, doing so can cause problems. Leaders know that the right decision at the wrong time is the wrong decision. Although people in prison may see many injustices on a systemic level, as masters, we should always have a very clear perspective. How are we defining success? What battles are we striving to win? What price are we willing to pay in pursuit of success over our battles. By focusing on victory as we define victory, we know where to concentrate our energy. It rarely works in our interest to seek relief from the highest levels of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. To oversee the Bureau of Prisons, the Director relies upon a large team. That team includes a Deputy Director, several Acting Directors, and several Regional Directors. It would be highly unusual for any of those directors to make decisions regarding any individuals in prison. Rather, the directors rely upon their subordinates. We should expect the subordinates to make decisions in accordance with the political philosophies of the people in power. Directors set policies and oversee budgets. Subordinates carry out those policies. Federal Prison, an Overview: We know that the Bureau of Prisons is a massive bureaucracy. It includes many different divisions. People who want to master federal prison should broaden their understanding of how it operates. The more people understand, the more likely they become to get on the best trajectory. Masters seek to understand more so that they can influence more. Although a later chapter discusses custody and classification levels in detail, we can provide a brief overview here. The Bureau of Prisons categorizes in accordance with security levels. Consider the following: ADX: This designation refers to an Administrative-Maximum U.S. Penitentiary. It is the highest level of security. Most people who serve time in an ADX start in a lower-security prison. They make decisions in prison that result in new criminal charges, or disciplinary problems. When a team or staff member identifies people in prison as being sufficiently disruptive, they may send them to an ADX penitentiary. SMU: This designation refers to a Special Management Unit. Like the ADX, the SMU is a highly restrictive prison. Staff members may send people to an SMU when they want to restrict their communication. Although most people who are in an SMU have violent histories, it's important to remember the adage “The pen is mightier than the sword.” If staff members consider a prisoner to be a prolific writer, and the prisoner writes content that staff members consider inflammatory, they may confine the person in an SMU. USP: This designation refers to a United States Penitentiary. In the broader community, people consider the word penitentiary as being synonymous with prison. But in the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the word penitentiary has a different meaning and connotation. It means high-security. People going to a USP live in restrictive conditions. Staff members consider USPs to be more volatile. They govern USPs in response to population levels that include higher percentages of people who have violent, volatile, and disruptive histories. FCI: This designation refers to a Federal Correctional Institution. The FCI includes both medium-security and low-security prisons. FSL: This designation refers to a Federal Satellite Low Security Prison. The people in an FSL have the custody scoring of people in a camp. But they have some issue that prevents them from going to a camp. For example, they may have a detainer of some type, or they may have longer than 10 years to serve. SCP: This designation refers to a Satellite Prison Camp. The camp is adjacent to a secure prison, and the inmates in the camp provide labor that keeps the prison operating. FPC: This designation refers to a federal prison camp. It is frequently a stand-alone camp, meaning it is not tied to another prison, as with the SCP. FCC: This designation refers to a Federal Correctional Complex. A complex will have several prisons of different security levels in a single location. People in one prison do not mix with people in another prison, but they're all in the same geographical location. FDC, MCC, or MDC: These designations refer detention centers. People in detention centers, ordinarily, await outcomes of judicial proceedings. Although some people serve the entire term in detention centers, or they are assigned to the work cadre—performing maintenance on the prison, they are not necessarily serving time. FMC: This designation refers to a Federal Medical Center. People who need medical attention may serve all or a portion of their time in an FMC. FTC: This designation refers to the Federal Transfer Center, in Oklahoma. Prisoners may spend time in the FTC while traveling to other institutions, or they may serve their sentence in the FTC if they're part of a work cadre. CI: This designation refers to a privately operated federal prison. CO and RO: These designation refers to the Central Office and the Regional Office. We can use our understanding of the regional office and the central office to influence our placement, or to influence favorable outcomes. Mastering the federal prison system requires some knowledge of the different types of institutions. The more we know about the Bureau of Prisons and the staff, the better we can position ourselves to get to the best possible environment. All secure institutions include the following staff members: Warden: The warden is the CEO of the institution. Wardens have an enormous amount of influence with regard to how the prison operates. Some wardens make themselves approachable. To the extent that a person in prison positions himself well, he can influence the warden's perception. As a prisoner, it's crucial to begin with a clear understanding of success. Exercise discretion when it comes to approaching a warden—or anyone else. Lay the groundwork first, before asking the warden to intervene on anything. Understand that the warden has enormous power with regard to every person in the prison. In the various books that Prison Professors have written, we described how wardens influenced our success through the journey. Pay close attention to the extensive amounts of back work that we did, and also note how we were selective when requesting assistance. Associate Wardens: The associate wardens are part of the warden's executive staff. They oversee various departments within the prison. For example, the Associate Warden of Programs will oversee unit staff. The Associate Warden of Operations will oversee facility management. The population level of the prison will influence how many AWs are available. Department Heads: Department heads oversee specific departments. For example, the Unit Manager oversees all case managers. A Unit Manager reports directly to the Associate Warden of Programs. The Unit Manager will ask inmates to resolve matters directly with the case manager. Line Staff: Line staff includes case managers, cook supervisors, counselors, landscape foreman, maintenance leaders, and others who work in various departments. They report to their respective department heads. Case Managers: Case managers oversee all matters that pertain to a person's case. Once the judge sentences a person “To the custody of the attorney general,” that person becomes an “inmate” as far as concerns the system. And case managers will have direct oversight of the inmate. The inmate will not have a lawyer. The inmate must learn how to advocate for himself effectively. Case managers will be a key person to influence. Although policies guide decisions, there is always some discretion. A master will learn how to influence staff members in the Bureau of Prisons in a positive way. Counselors: Counselors in federal prison do not offer the type of counseling that someone outside of prison would expect. Rather, they perform jobs like approving visiting lists and assigning jobs. It's best to understand the limited role that counselors play in federal prison. That way, people spare themselves the disappointment that comes from expecting too much. Influence and Manipulation At Prison Professors, we discuss the long-term approach of influencing a positive outcome. That differs from shortsighted efforts to manipulate staff members. To influence does not mean to manipulate. For obvious reasons, staff members are extremely cynical. Every day, staff members in prison work with convicted felons. Many of those people have criminal mindsets. That is why staff members expect inmates to lie. They expect inmates to do or say anything that will ease their burden. Masters of the system do not whine or complain about this reality. Rather, they learn how to work within the system, and how to succeed in spite of the challenges. Masters know that the Bureau of Prisons invests a considerable amount of resources in staff development and staff training. Part of that training teaches staff members how “to be firm but fair.” The Bureau of Prisons wants to make sure the public is safe, the prisons are safe, and the staff members are safe. As such, it's extremely conservative. Training encourages staff members to rely upon policy when making decisions, and it trains them to interpret those policies conservatively. For that reason, it's crucial for masters to understand all policies. By understanding the opportunity costs that come with every decision, masters can make better progress than those who flounder. If you want to master federal prison, work through all of the programs available through PrisonProfessors.com. You will learn our strategies for making exceptional progress in prison. More importantly, you will learn how to succeed upon release.
