Check this out! I thought this article was very revealing and it may explain why so many inmates in correctional facilities (PRISON) claim that many of the guards are evil & sadistic. Good people gone bad?? You have to admit that dealing with sociopathic criminal minds with nothing to lose, could start to get to anyone. But its scientifically proven that when given total authority over another human being, many will go too far.
