just because they are inmates doesn’t mean they’re bad people
Constellations yeah lol
miss frizzle Very true. I been a Corrections Officer for over 20 yrs, and that is def true.
Actually, most are good people, who just made not good choices
But so sad citizen still look down all of the. Because they are inmate
@Constellations year lol
Actually, the really bad ones that have been known to try to escape and shit usually don't get such privileges as working... supervised only by a single officer on an open field.
It could also be that they were the ones convicted of very minor crimes, and have maybe a couple months, a year left to serve. Obviously, none of them would try to attack him or escape knowing very well that if they get caught they will have to serve a far longer sentence than they ever deserved in the first place.
So. No the ones working in this video most definitely aren't bad people, but that doesn't mean all inmates are as good as them.
Inmate does not spell evil.
it spell inmate
At least for these guys, it does spell mate😊
Oh shit my bad. I thought it did. Silly me.
@@bobbehfirmino751 Yea..... silly you.....
It just a mate that's in
"It wasn't about who was in jail and who wasn't it was about a man going down and we had to help him." This is how we make great things.
Cringe. And I don't mean the inmates quote. I mean "This is how we make great things." That's like the cringiest thing I've ever heard.

“Anything could have happened, but all the right things happened”
I loved that part!

It's funny how people think inmates no longer are human.
They're property of the state to profit on.
Judging by the work detail they have, these are probably some of the best behaved inmates in the place, the news has to spin it like it's amazing they didn't murder him and piss on his corpse. They can't even do a positive story without some level of fear mongering.
@@jimjambananaslam3596 Polk is a county jail, none of these guys have sentences of over 1 year most likely. if they did, they would be in a state prison.
This is absolutely amazing,
Prisoners outside prison doing work tidying up a cemetery,
The cemeteries in Ireland are in a disgraceful condition and could certainly do with this sort of detail,
Instead the prisoners get time off for behaving themselves in prison,
Which I think is ludicrous,
But I think what these prisoners did certainly deserves some kind of reward at least some time of their sentence,
The news didn’t say!!
These inmates were busted doing minor offenses and are humans. The ones who rape and murder are not and need to be killed.
They should all get a reduced sentence
Blue haired lawyer they did
I agree.
I imagine they did.
I bet that officer & warden done something for them in reducing some of their sentence.
This video alone will catch a DA or judge or another cop & they'll probably knock off some time ?
Agreed
CSX2665 how much shorter
People might make mistakes in their past, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be amazing people like these guys 💯💯💯💯
These guys acted quickly and with compassion for the officer. It just goes to show that there are good people everywhere, including prison. Nobody is perfect and we can learn from our mistakes.
That must’ve been a good officer. For him to trust the inmates like that would require mutual respect
Generally speaking, if you treat someone like a human being, they will act like a human being.
@RedPanda796 As it should be.
Trust me I can truly tell you most guards are truly dicks and they're very mean had he been such an officer they would have said f*** it let him die of course they probably been charged with murder for not helping him
they’re all the inmates that have good records in the prison. the ones that they basically deem safe enough to go outside the walls from their behavior record.
Its the morally righteous ones that end up in ZOG prison
They need a reduction of sentence. They did a good thing and showed signs of rehabilitation.
I agree. Unfortunately our system isnt about rehabilitation
Facts if I was there doing hefty sentence I would grab the gun and run lol😈🤦♂️😭😁
@@FBIAGENT725 could swore they said his gun belt and fire arm and I used be locked up some did have guns but inmate can't access sniper towers tho
@@FBIAGENT725 he had a gun. Says it in video.
@@FBIAGENT725 When he's supervising 6 inmates alone with weed wackers im sure he'll have a firearm. Think about it, if you're capable of thinking.
My grandfather worked the road crew in Louisville Mississippi for 20 years. His crew always respected him like this. Just because you've made mistakes and gotten on the wrong side of the law doesn't by default make you a bad person. In the south respect is earned. This officer had clearly earned respect by showing it. Good stories like this are to rare.
It’s not that they are evil, is that they made mistakes. It is a rare rare few that are evil. People just make mistakes, some out of total desperation... we are all human and their humanity shined.
The inmates that get these type of outdoor jobs are usually ones that the prison considers safe because they have behaved themselves for years. Still a touching story though.
Job implies they are getting paid
Oh really? Polk is a county jail which typically hold offenders with sentences under 1 year long. not a state jail holding all theses rapists and murders you think they are.
SUB jails also hold people who haven’t gone to trial yet, so they can be facing a range of charges from drug possession to murder. Dangerous inmates wouldn’t be put on this kind of work detail though.
@@AWOL401 you won't get work detail unless you have been convicted and placed, so stop talking about something you know nothing about.
@@regalcoder4633 they usually do actually get paid, but its literally like 25 cents an hour.
I bet you most of those guys were in jail for non-violent drug offenses

@@randomfactsthatdontmatter3466 Because it's not true.

They could have left but Thank God they didn't they stayed and help the officer see some people can be trusted
U don't know that, don't assume things if they aren't true you idiot
Sounds like a great movie scene
Story gave me chills. We’re all just human beings.
I like stories that show that being an inmate does not mean someone is a bad person
It depends. The fact that they're doing community service means they're the ones with petty non-violent crimes.
It pays to treat the inmates decently whenever possible and not lord over them just because you can. I'd also point out those on work details aren't usually dangerous convicts.
CAROLINA PATRIOT
I know they aren't as dangerous, as most seem like they are...
I thought the one's on work detail are the ones getting out soon
absolutely!!!
Mona Moses they pretty much are or ones that are very well behaved and didn’t have to serve a lot of time
Mona Moses probably trustees
_"There's some good in everybody" _*_they're still human like damn. Just because they're inmates doesn't mean they're some heartless people._*
Yes exactly, there’s some good in everybody. That statement means just what it says. Stop getting so butthurt just cause they are inmates. They are in prison cause they committed a crime, or several. No one ever said that they werent human. Calm down
She meaning like just because their inmates dosent mean they are bad people cause anybody could go to jail for anything like possession of weed or not going to your court date for a speeding ticket .... etc
That's the truth
@@ihitgrandslams7961 I agree with you, to an extent. But no single act defines a person, no matter how bad that act was. Now, if we're talking about a serial killer, a serial rapist, a serial child molester or someone like that, then yeah, there's no redeeming them. The fact that they did it over and over again and never learned their lesson or tried to change their ways shows they should spend the rest of their lives in a supermax prison or get the needle, depending on what they did. My policy on the death penalty though is that if there's no loss of life involved in the crime, then the death penalty is not considered.
That said, if we're talking about a single act, the person who did it is truly remorseful and wants to change their ways, I do believe those people can be redeemed. Sometimes they do change. Not all, or even most, of the time, mind you. It is possible, though. I'm living proof. I went to Juvie as a young teen for a crime I won't name here. Suffice it to say, it was bad, and leave it at that. I'm 34 now and haven't been in any sort of trouble since being released at 19. If I can change, so can others.
Too be honest true criminals that kill will never save a officer these who are doing time for breaking laws like drunk driving or abuse but realised what they done is wrong correction facility is for those who do petty crimes and had to do maybe a year if it was bad like maybe assaulting somone destruction of property those who can get a 2nd chance
I just wanna give these men a huge round of applause they could've had his gun, car keys, radio but nope they helped him. They deserve some time off their sentences
You can't get time off a sentence but if they are up for parole, they are more likely to pass.
@@harrisonmathews1406 yes you can

@@commentperson9036 I was just saying how I agree
Some people do bad things and get locked up but I genuinely believe there are very few people who are just bad. These guys deserve praise not because they are prisoners but because they are decent human beings.
The bad people usually get shitted on a lot in prison by other inmates, especially child molesters.

Depends if you want to spend the rest of your life on the run or possibly receive a reduced sentence (this kind of thing does very well for an early release interview)
But then Im not a diehard criminal and couldnt let a man die like that either
Listhpy Whithper tru
Alex Kramer if they reduce their sentence ion think that would be fair to everyone locked up bc this don’t happen to everyone and I bet if the Sam etching happened to my dad that locked up he wouldn’t of ran either he would’ve helped too
Mad respect for these gentlemen
Marksman King it’s still not fair to all the other ppl that would also do the same tho
It would be good if the justice recognize this invaluable gesture reducing their time in prison,if possible. God bless them all !!!!
My son-in-law has been a CO for four years and he deservedly earned this title. He is NOT a prison guard as so many people call these brave men and women. COs go through mental, emotional and physical training to keep the public safe. Of course with any profession there are a few who give COs a bad name. My son-in-law gives respect and encourages these men to better their lives. Inmates know my son-in-law is fair and has their backs. So very proud of our Family CO🤩 We Love You Devon🥰

This Is humanity. It doesn’t matter that you’re in jail, you can still be good
Somethin my mamma taught me growing up and this situation shows it well. "Good people can do bad things and bad people can do good things." Not all inmates are cruel and evil like some are sometimes they are just good people who did somethin bad that got them into that situation.
These are some good men right there, that's for dang sure, they coulda ran or hurt/killed the man if they wanted to given the situation but they stayed, got help and tried to make all the right decisions to save the officer's life.
They were treated with a 6 pack of beer while Andy just sat back and watched.
Favorite movie as a kid crazy m8
Even if they had committed acts of violence in the past,(I have no idea if they had or not) they did not commit a violent act on the day in question. Anyone of us could find ourself on the wrong side of the law, Its very easy to get in trouble. All it takes is a half of second of uncontrolled rage, and one can do alot of damage to others, and to one's own future.
Best movie ever made :)

I'm sure this act will help out a lot during their next hearing.
Yeah, let them have a cold beer! Lol
there serving time for non violent crimes under 1 year, trust me, no one is that stupid to think the federal crimes for trying to flee is worth it. no one.
Man massive respect to those dudes
You know how reformed these men are for looking after their officers.
Good job 👏
it's all up to how the officer's treat the inmates. if the office gives respect respect is gained

Ahem to that
I'm so glad that the inmates had big hearts. They may be trustees, could have run and let the officer die, but they stayed and got help. God bless these men.
“God”
People on work details normally don't have much time left till they get out. Be on the run your whole life and let a man die, or save him and be out in 6 months.
Yeah for a reduced sentence
It sounds like the officer was just overheated and wasn't really in danger of dying. I mean, it's not like he had a heart attack or something
@@fendertremolo9793 you can die from overheating. You core temperature becoming to high can lead to heat stroke and organ failure. Heart attack being one of the most common.
This shows us bad people are not bad. They might do bad actions, but within them they can still do kind things. Great job boys.
They can change.
Congrats Polk County Correction Center! The guys stepped up when really needed. They made mistakes like a lot of people who haven’t been caught, but worked together to save a policeman’s life. They’re human too!
It's really nice that they helped him out like that, we all have to treat each other kind.

Inmates that are allowed to go outside of the Jail like this are not ones that are deemed dangerous.
They are just people who made a mistake.
They had the chance to escape, but they didn't.
They weren't facing life. Maybe a few months to a few years. Why go on the run always looking over your shoulder, never being able to get a job or house, start a family and be free. Then be caught and add more years to your sentence.
Minty you definitely wouldn’t have
@@Psychebane not a few years. You won't get anything over a year in a country facility, so if any one of them have a whole year sentence, take away their "goodtime/worktime" they will only be serving a few months depending on the kick out they have in that county. In Los Angeles they've had upto a %80 kick out at one time. Which means you do a little over 2 months on a year.
mushr00m _ OBVIOUSLY!😂
And they going out a few days a week
"It wasn't about who was in jail and who wasn't. It was about a man going down, and we had to help him."
That says so much about the character of these men. Good job.
Thumbs up 👍 from me!
You guys are great in what you did for the officer. Thank you from us all. 😊❤
People are always surprised that inmates are human beings who have the same range of emotions as the rest of us and the same ability for compassion because they have been stigmatized by society through the media, the vast majority of inmates aren't sociopaths!
You should all be very proud of yourselves for doing the right thing. Your good men that made a mistake that laned you where you are today but as you have most definitely proven your past doesn't have to predict your future. God bless each one of you that had a helping hand and I pray good will come to each one of you in the near future.
Amen

Great job fellas! I worked as a road deputy, but often had multiple contacts with inmates in jail. They are just the ones that got caught, so suggest looking back in your own history of "Good Luck" before casting any judgement. Most are good people, at times lost and will admit their faults. They are there just doing their time and wish to make the best of it. These guys did an awesome job!
Many thanks to this men who did the right decision !!!
Whew, this story brought me to tears. It's so amazing that the inmates did the right thing and didn't take advantage of the situation. God bless them. They deserve some time off their sentences.

Imagine the what the 911 call center employee was thinking... “yeah I’m a prisoner calling on a prison guards phone that we are in the middle of a cemetery and he just passed out and we could easily run if we wanted soooo...”
Riiight! I was wondering if the operator even believed him at first!
Claudia Holmes l’m pretty sure the operator believed the person that called. They have the technology to pin point the location you’re calling from. How I know this cause I called in a fire caused by the wind blowing the power lines together. Soon as I started telling the 911 operator my location. She told me I can see exactly where you’re at. Told me they would get fire trucks on the way. Pretty amazing technology it’s a good thing though save a lot life’s when they can pin point your location. Before that lot of time was wasted trying to explain to the operator your location in a rural area
Thank you men for what you willingly chose to do. You are of great value to this world.
Hello Nancy
How are you doing today?
Man, these kind of stories have so much potential to actually make me cry easily
I'd say a reduction in sentence is in order for these inmates that helped the officer. That should be a natural reaction by the judicial system. I know I am dreaming though and its not going to happen. To the courts that sentenced these inmates: If you are truly grateful for the inmates heroism, reduce their time.
those on work detail are what are considered "short timers"- those with little time left on their sentence. By the time the authorized person can make that decision (reduced time), most will, probably, be back on the street. If it is possible, I do think reduced time and recognition for their actions are in order. There have been similar situations, and the inmates were rewarded with reduced sentences. Who knows what doors that type recognition could open for those individuals.
@hung well A sheriff can't reduce anyone's time lol. That's what a judge can only do. And no. They didn't.
@@twistedmichigander4907 Sadly most likely none...jail doors are what open to those with a record. I saw a cousin of mine go through this. He committed a relatively minor offence by today's standard, Good hearted, smart guy, made one stupid choice, got caught unlike a lot of the people that cast judgment...who didn't get caught. Now he is forever branded, most likely stuck having to struggle to stay out of the system, working some crap job.
