SECURITY OPERATIONS

Overview

RULE:

33-602.210

Use of Force

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of the proposed rule is to address those situations when, on the same shift, an inmate resumes disruption after the camera operator has left the area. The rule provides for deference to the judgment of the supervisor as to whether return of the camera will be counterproductive to his efforts to regain control of the situation. The rule specifies that new initiation of video recording is required if shift change or other staff change occurs after the camera and operator left the area. The purpose and effect of the amendments to Form DC4-650B, Risk Assessment for the Use of Chemical Restraint Agents and Electronic Immobilization Devices, is to provide for the use of CIT intervention techniques prior to application of chemical agents for designated inmates at Florida State Prison and Union Correctional Institution.
