The article focuses on the issues pertaining the use of physical force to control prisoners confined in the U.S. This act has been considered lamentable, however, it is necessary and common place event in the day-to-day administration of U.S. prisons and jails. It has been cited that correctional staff are permitted by law to use force in many circumstances, including protecting themselves or others, protecting property, enforcing orders, preventing crimes and escapes, and maintaining the safety and security of their facilities. These circumstances undeniably occur with some frequency in prisons and jails. Corporal punishment is illegal in U.S. corrections.
