Basic Concepts Terminologies in Correctional Administration
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Law & Justice A rule of conduct, just and obligatory
laid down by the legitimate authority for the common welfare and benefit of the people. Lady Justice is the symbol of the judiciary. Justice is depicted as a goddess equipped with three symbols of the rule of law: 1. A sword symbolizing the court's coercive power; 2. A scale representing the weighing of competing claims; and 3. A blindfold indicating impartiality. RHEM RICK CORPUZ

Correctional Administration vs. Correctional Management Correctional
administration is the organization and management of the delivery system that brings the basic necessities and treatment programs of the correctional institutions or agencies to the correctional client (Vernon Fox). RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Correctional management
is concerned primarily with making use of available manpower and resources to implement programs. Thus, most of Management‘s time is spent on activities within the organization. Managers are responsible primarily for implementing policy and for day-to-day planning so their positions tend to be less political.
Penology defined. Penology is the study of punishment for
crime or of criminal offenders. It includes the study of control and prevention of crime through punishment of criminal offenders. It is a term derived from the Latin word “poena” which means pain or suffering. Also known as Penal Science RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Aims of Penology To bring light on the ethical barriers of
punishment, along with the motives and purposes of society inflicting it. To make a comparative study of penal laws and procedures through history between nations. To evaluate the social consequences of the policies enforced at a given time. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Correction defined. A branch of the Criminal Justice System
concerned with the custody, supervision and rehabilitation of criminal offenders. A field of criminal justice administration, which utilizes the body of knowledge and practices of the government and the society in the general involving the processes of handling individuals who have been convicted of offenses for purposes of crime prevention and control.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Other terms.. Penology is the old term the accepted term now
is CORRECTIONS PENAL MANAGEMENT – refers to the
manner or practice of managing or controlling places of confinement as jails or prisons.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Punishment vs. Penalty It is the redress that
the state takes against an offending member of society that usually involves pain and suffering. It is also the penalty imposed on an offender for a crime or wrongdoing. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Is defined as the
suffering inflicted by the state against an offending member for the transgression of law.
Justifications of Punishment Retribution – during the primitive days,
punishment of the transgressor was carried out in the form of personal vengeance.. Expiation or Atonement –. An offense committed by a member against another member of the same clan or group aroused the condemnation of the whole group against the offending member. The group would therefore demand that the offender be punished. Expiation is therefore, group vengeance as distinguish from retribution which is personal vengeance. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Justifications of Punishment Deterrence – It is commonly believed that punishment
gives a lesson to the offender; that it shows other what would happen if they violate the law; and that punishment holds crime in check. Protection – Protection as a justification of punishment came after prisons, were fully established. People believe that by putting the offender in prison, society is protected from his further criminal depredation. Vicious and dangerous criminals are made to serve long terms of imprisonment to protect the public from harm or against their dangerous behavior. Reformation – Under this theory, society can best be protected from crime if the purpose of imprisonment is to reform or rehabilitate the prisoner. RHEM RICK CORPUZ

EARLY LEGAL CODES
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Code of Ur- Nammu (2100–2050 BCE) Oldest Code known to man
institutes fines of monetary compensation for
bodily damage, as opposed to the later lex talionis (‗eye for an eye‘) principle of Babylonian law; however, murder, robbery, adultery and rape were capital offenses. Provides the first caste system
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Code of Eshunna Code of Eshunna (ca 1930 BC) – a
Sumerian code which forbid accepting money or objects “from the hands of a slave” or making loans (that is, any transactions with a slave). Moneylenders are likewise forbidden from taking hostages, whether free men or slaves. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Code of Lipit-Isthar (ca 1860
BC) - a more popular version the Sumerian law which chronicles the rights of citizens, marriages, successions, property rights and penalties. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Code of Hammurabi First discovered in 1901, these laws are currently the earliest known complete set of codified laws. Once thought to be the earliest laws until the discovery of a portion of the Code of Lipit-Ishtar (circa 1868 B.C.E.) in the 1930's. These laws are originally scripted on an eight meter monolith stone tablet in the Akkadian language. The monolith is currently part of the Near Eastern Antiquities Collection at the Lourve Museum in Paris, France. Hammurabi was the King of Babylon from about 1792 B.C.E. to 1750 B.C.E. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Code of Draco Greek Code of Draco (621 BC) – In Greece, around
621 BC, the Code of Draco was enforced, a hash code that provides the same punishment for both citizens and the slaves as it incorporates primitive concepts. The penalty for many offenses was death; so severe, that the word "draconian" comes from his name and has come to mean, in the English language, an unreasonably harsh law. The Draco laws were the first written laws of Greece. These laws introduced the state's exclusive role in punishing persons accused of crime, instead of relying on private justice. Thus, the Greeks were the first society to allow any citizen to prosecute the offender in the name of the injured party. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Solon‘s Law Solon’s Law (530 BC) – This law
repealed Draco‘s laws and allowed capital punishment only for a limited number of serious offenses, such as murder or military or political offenses against the state. It also gave the right of representation, of every person to claim redress on behalf of another to whom wrong was being done RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Mosaic Code The Law of Moses is a biblical term first found in
the Book of Joshua 8:31-32 where Joshua writes the words of "the Law of Moses" on the altar at Mount Ebal. The text continues "And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law." (Joshua 8:34).
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Twelve tables The Law of the Twelve Tables (Duodecim
Tabulae) was the ancient legislation that stood at the foundation of Roman law. The Twelve Tables came about as a result of the long social struggle between patricians and plebeians. After the expulsion of the last king of Rome,Tarquinius Superbus, the Republic was governed by a hierarchy of magistrates.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Justinian Code
Corpus Juris Civilis or the Justinian Code, was the
result of Emperor Justinian's desire that existing Roman law be collected into a simple and clear system of laws, or "code.― Tribonian, a legal minister under Justinian, lead a group of scholars in a 14-month effort to codify existing Roman law. The result was the first Justinian Code, completed in 529. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Burgundian Code Burgundian Code (500 A.D) – also
known as Lex Burgundionum, published in about 475 in Burgundy, now Southeastern France. The codification married German to Roman law as well as advancing other unique and novel aspects of written private laws which influenced the course of the laws of Europe. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Secular Codes Secular Laws (4th AD) - were advocated by
Christian philosophers who recognizes the need for justice. Some of the proponents these laws were St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas. During this period, three laws were distinguished: External Law (Lex Externa), Natural Law (Lex Naturalis), Human Law (Lex Humana). All these laws are intended for the common good, but the Human law only becomes valid if it does not conflict with the other two laws. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Judean Christian Theory 30 C.E.
The canonical courts refuse to
recognize State courts and allowed jurisdiction over crimes of heresy, blasphemy, and witchcracft.

Stocks- held a prisoner in a sitting position with feet and heads locked ina frame.
Pillory- a prisoner in a standing position with the head and hands locked in place. Both devices exposed the prisoner to public scorn. And while confined in place, prisoners were frequently pelted with eggs and rotten fruit. In England they abolished the pillory during 1834.

Aristotle The first attempt to explain crime was made
by the Athenian philosopher, Aristotle. In his book “Nicomedean Ethics”, he discusses corrective justice, thus – “punishment is a means of restoring the balance between pleasure and pain”. This philosophy of individual determinism which existed up to 400 B.C., was another form of the so called “free-will theory‖.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Mutilation was
another type of corporal punishment use in ancient and medieval societies. Archeological evidence shows that Pharaohs of ancient Egypt, or their representative often ordered mutilation and it is according to the law of retaliation.

Flogging (whipping) has been the most common physical punishment through
the ages. The Mosaic code, for example authorized flogging and the Roman law specified flogging as a punishment for certain forms of theft. It is Common in England during the Middle Ages as chastisement for a wide variety of crimes; the women were flogged in private, while men were whipped publicly. The construction of flogging whips from simple leather straps or willow branches to heavy, complicated instruments designed to inflict a maximum of pain.

yolk worn around the neck and where the outstretched arms of convict were tied to. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Russian knout is the cruel form of whip their
knout was made of leather strips fitted with fish hook. When the prisoner was whipped, the hooks would dig into the body, ripping away the proverbial ―pound of flesh‖ with each stroke. A thorough whipping with the knout could result in death from blood loss. This kind of punishment survived into the 20th century. RHEM RICK CORPUZ

The
early punishment were considered synonymous with slavery, those punished even had their ― heads shaved‖ indicating the mark of the slave. PENAL SERVITUDE/CIVIL DEATH- extensive use in Roman days, the offenders property was confiscated in the name of the state and that his wife was declared a widow, meaning she is eligible to remarry. To society the criminal in effect “dead”.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Crime & sin Punishment of the individual in the name of the state also
included the concept of supertitious revenge. Crime was entangled with sin and punishment in the form of wergeld(payment to the victim) or friedensgeld(payment to the state) was not sufficient. If society believed the crime might have offended a divinity, the accused had to undergo at a long period of progressively harsher punishment in order to appease the Gods. The zone between church law and state law became more and more blurred, and the concept of personal responsibility for one‘s act was combined with the need to ―get right with God‖. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
CULLEUS- the offender was confined in
a sack with an ape, a dog and a serpent and the sack was thrown into the sea. VESTAL VIRGIN- who had violated their vows of chastity were buried alive. And as an alternative to execution, offenders who went into exile lost their citizenship, freedom and immovable property. And if they will returned to Rome, they could be killed by any citizen. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Blood feud The practice of personal retaliation was later
augmented by the blood feud, in which the victims family or tribe took revenge on the offenders family or tribe. Because this form of retaliation could easily escalate and result in an endless vendetta between the injured factions, some methods of control had to be devised to make blood feud less costly and damaging.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Vengeance The practice of retaliation usually begins to develop
into a system of criminal law when it becomes customary for the victims of the wrongdoing to accept money or property in place of blood vengeance. The other form of acceptance of vengeance in the form of a payment (such as cattle, food or personal services), was usually not compulsory and victims were still free to take whatever vengeance they wished.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The custom of atonement for
wrongs by payment to appease the victim‘s family or tribe became known as lex salica (or wergeld, in Europe) lex salica or restitution. It is still in effect in many Middle Eastern and Far Eastern countries, with the amount of payment based on the injured person’s rank and position. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Outlawry or exile First punishment imposed by society, and it heralded
the beginning of criminal law as we know it. As tribal leaders, elders & kings, came into power they began to exert their authority on the negotiations. Wrongdoers could choose to stay away from the proceedings this was their right. But if they refused to abide by the imposed sentenced, they were declared to be outside the law of the tribe (nation, family) or an outlaw.

Sir Samuel Romilly (1757- 1818) A follower of Bentham, was
an able lawyer and the most effective leader in direct and persistent agitation for reform of the English criminal code. He pressed for construction of the first modern English prison, Millbank, in 1816. His prison idea was taken up by Romilly‘s followers, Sir James Mackintosh (17651832) and Sir Thomas Fowell Buxton (1786- 1845). RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Sir Robert Peel (1788- 1850) Was the leader in the English
legislature for reform of the criminal code, pushing through programs devised by Bentham, Romilly, and others. He established the Irish constabulary, called the ―PEELERS‖ after the founder. In 1829, he started the London Metropolitan Police, known as ―Bobbies‖ also after Sir Robert. He was active in all phases of Criminal Justice. RHEM RICK CORPUZ

was the Director of the prisons of Valencia, Spain, in 1835, divided prisoners into companies and appointed prisoners as petty officers in charge. Academic classes of one hour a day were given all inmates under 20 years of age. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Alexander Maconochie Capt. Alexander Maconochie, the
Superintendent of a penal colony at Norfolk Island in Australia who introduced a progressive humane system to substitute for corporal punishment. When a prisoner earned a required number of marks, he was given his ticket of leave, which is the equivalent of parole He introduced fair disciplinary trials, built churches, distributed books, allowed plays to be staged, and permitted prisoners to tend small gardens. Father of parole RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The first thing that Alexander Maconochie
did was to eliminate the flat sentence, a system that had allowed no hope of release until the full time had been served. Then he developed a MARK SYSTEM- whereby a convict could earn freedom by hard work and good behavior. This put the burden of release on the convict. As Maconochie said, ―when a man keeps the key of his own prison, he is soon persuaded to fit it into the lock” RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The system had five principles: Release should not be based on the completing
of a sentence for a set period of time, but on the completion of a determined and specified quantity of labor. In brief, time sentences should be abolished, and tasked sentences substituted. The quantity of labor a prisoner must perform should be expressed in a number of “marks” which he must earn, by improvement of conduct, frugality of living, and habits of industry, before he can be released. While in prison he should earn everything he recieves. All sustenance and indulgences should RICK CORPUZ beRHEM added to his debt of marks.
When qualified by discipline to do so, he should
work in asociation with a small number of other prisoners, forming a group of six or seven, and the whole group should be answerable for the conduct and labor of each member. In the final stage, a prisoner, while still obliged to earn his daily tally of marks, should be given a propriety interest in his own labor and be subjected to a less rigorous discipline, to prepare him for release into society. But sad to say the fact that Maconochie‘s visionary toward rehabilitation were not appreciated or supported by the unenlightened bureaucrats above him. His results thus were disclaimed, and the colony fell back into its former brutalized routine almost as he left it. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Walter Crofton Sir Walter Crofton,
Chairman of the Directors of Irish prisons. In 1856, Crofton introduced the ―Irish system”, later on called the progressive stage system.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Crofton and the Irish system SIR WALTER CROFTON of Ireland- used that
concept in developing what he called the ―indeterminate system‖, which came to be known as the “IRISH SYSTEM”. He reasoned that if penitentiaries are places where offenders think about their crimes and can decide to stop their criminal misbehavior (―repent‖), then there must be a mechanism to determine that this decision has in fact been made, as well as a mechanism for getting the inmate out when penitence has been done. The indeterminate sentence was believed to be the best RHEM RICK CORPUZ mechanism.
Crofton devised a series of stages, each bringing the convict closer to the free society; The
first stage was composed of solitary confinement and monotonous of work. The second stage was assignment to public works and a progression through various grades, each grade shortening the length of stay. The last stage was assignment to an indeterminate prison where the prisoner worked without supervision and moved in and out of the free country. If the prisoner‘s conduct continued to be good and if he or she were able to find employment , then the offender returned to the community on a RHEM RICK CORPUZ conditional pardon or ―ticket to leave‖.
Ticket to leave Ticket to leave- This ticket could be
revoked at any time within the span of the original fixed sentence if the prisoner‘s conduct was not up to standards established by those who supervised the conditional pardon. Crofton‘s plan was the first effort to establish a system of conditional liberty in the community, the system we know today asRHEM Parole. RICK CORPUZ
Frédéric-Auguste Demetz Frédéric-Auguste
Demetz was famous for the establishment of agricultural colony for delinquent boys in France in 1839. The boys were housed in cottages with house fathers as in charge.

1876, the New York State Reformatory at Elmira opened with Z. R. Brockway as superintendent. Brockway introduced in Elmira a new institutional program for boys from 16 to 30 years of age.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Contribution of Brockway The new prisoner was classified as second grade
and was promoted to first grade after six months of good behavior. Another six months of good behavior in the first grade qualified him for parole. If the prisoner committed a missed conduct he was demoted to third grade where he was required to show good conduct for one month before he could be reclassified to second grade.

Elam Lynds warden of the Auburn and later
of Sing Sing (which he built), was one of the most influential persons in the development of early prison discipline in America. He is described as having been a strict disciplinarian who believe that all convicts were cowards who could not be reformed until their spirit was broken. To this end he devised a system of brutal punishments and degrading procedures, many of which remained as accepted practice until very recent times. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The imposition of silence was seen as the
most important part of the discipline program. The rule of absolute silence and noncommunication was maitained and enforce by the immediate use of the lash for the slightest infraction. Flogging was advocated by Lynds as the most effective way to maintain order. He sometimes used a ―cat‖ made of wires strands. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The methods used to prevent conversation or
communication during after meals were also humiliating, prisoners were required to sit face-to-back. They were given their meager and usually bland and unsavory, meal to eat in silence. If they wanted more food, they would raise one hand; if they had too much they raised the other. Any infraction of the rule of silence resulted in a flogging and the loss of a meal. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Prison Stripes A development of the various forms of attire to degrade and identify prisoners. Wide alternating black-and-white horizontal bonds were placed on the loose-fitting heavy cotton garments. Stripes were still in use in the South as late as the 1940‘s and 1950‘s. They have been generally replaced in most security prisons by blue denims or whites. Early prisoners were allowed to wear the same clothing as the free society did. Auburn and Sing Sing prisons different colors were used for the first time offenders and for repeaters The famous ―prisons stripes‖ came into being during the year 1815 in New York. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Lockstep Prisoners were required to line up in close formation with
their hands on the shoulders or under the arms of the prisoner in front. The line moved rapidly toward its destination as the prisoners shuffled their feet in unison without lifting them from the ground. Because this nonstop shuffle was ―encouraged‖ by the use of the lash, any prisoner who fell out of lockstep risked a broken ankle or other serious injury from the steadily objectionable and was punished viciously. The methods used to prevent conversation or communication during after meals were also humiliating, prisoners were required to sit face-toback. They were given their meager and usually bland and unsavory, meal to eat in silence. RHEM RICK CORPUZ

―progressive‖ reforms 2 strategies for CJ reform: improve general social, economic conditions that seem to breed crime rehabilitate individual offenders 4 planks in ―progressive‖ platform:
probation (John Augustus, 1841) indeterminate sentencing (by 1920s, 37 states) parole (by 1920s, 44 states; 80% of releases) juvenile courts (1899, Cook County)

behavior is caused by social, psychological, biological deficiencies that require medical treatment first serious efforts to implement truly medical
strategies aimed at scientifically classifying, treating, rehabilitating criminal offenders e.g. ―medical‖ programs & institutions psychology (Karl Menninger) Maryland Patuxent Institution, 1955 sexual psychopath, sociopath laws crime as sickness RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The Community Model (1960s - 1970s)
model of corrections positing goal of CJS: to
reintegrate offender into community key features prisons should be avoided;
prison = artificial environment; prison frustrates crime-free lifestyle need to focus on offender‘s adjustment into society; not just on psychological treatment probation intermediate sanctions;
(alternatives to incarceration) parole RHEM RICK CORPUZ
The Crime Control Model (1970s - 2000)
less ambitious, less optimistic, less forgiving

RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Modern Trends 1967 - The Community Based Era
(Deinstitutionalization) - A more humanistic approach was envisioned. The community base approach would help the inmate and it would help solve the problem of overcrowding prisons. Inmates took part in half-way houses and job release programs. Some were even allowed week end furloughs to visit family and loved ones. 1980 - The “Warehousing” Era - After many studies showed that efforts to rehabilitate criminals were failing miserably, it was evident that a new approach should be used. This led to the ―nothing works‖ doctrine. The new approach would be to simply put criminals away so they would no longer be a menace to society. This is when the term ―warehousing‖ began to surface. Prisoners were put away for determined periods of time without the earlier frills of treatment and ―coddling‖. RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Early forms of prison discipline HARD LABOR- productive works
DEPRIVATION- deprivation of everything except the
essentials of existence. MONOTONY- giving the same food that is ―off‖ diet or requiring the prisoners to perform drab or boring daily routine. UNIFORMITY- ―we treat the prisoners alike‖, the fault of one is the fault of all.
RHEM RICK CORPUZ
MASS MOVEMENT- mass living in cellbloks, mass
eating, mass recreation, mass bathing. DEGRADATION- uttering insulting words or languages on the part of prison staff to the prisoners to degrade or break the confidence of prisoners. CORPORAL PUNISHMENT- imposing brutal punishment or employing physical force to intimidate a delinquent inmate. ISOLATION or SOLITARY CONFINEMENT- noncommunication, limited news, ―the lone wolf‖.

HISTORICAL SETTING OF CORRECTION IN THE PHILIPPINES Most tribal traditions, customs, and practices influenced
laws during the Pre-Spanish Philippines. There were also laws that were written which includes the; CODE OF KALANTIAO- (promulgated in 1433). MARAGTAS CODE- (Datu Sumakwel)
The most extensive and severe law that prescribes harsh punishment
is the Maragtas code (Datu Sumakwel). Eventually, the Spanish Civil Code became effective in the Philippines on December 7, 1889, the ―CONQUISTADORES‖. The Kodigo Penal (noe the REVISED PENAL CODE) was also also introduced promulgated by the king of Spain. Basically, these laws adopted the Roman Law principles (Coquia, 1996.)

Code of Kalantiao Article I
Ye shall not kill, neither shall ye steal nor shall ye hurt the aged, lest ye incur the danger of death. All those who this order shall infringe shall be tied to a stone and drowned in a river or in boiling water. Article II Ye shall punctually meet your debt with your headman. He who fulfils not, for the first time shall be lashed a hundredfold, and If the obligation is great, his hand shall be dipped threefold in boiling water. On conviction, he shall be flogged to deatth. Article III Obey ye: no one shall have wives that are too young, nor shall they be more than what he can take care of, nor spend much luxury.

Spanish Era Upon the occupation of the Philippines by the
Spaniards dating as far back as 1521, and at various later dates when formal occupation of the different villages were effected by the Spanish “conquistadores”, the laws which were introduced in the Philippines were the royal decrees, ordinances, rules and regulations for the government of the colonies promulgated by the King of Spain from time to time and later on incorporated into "Recopelacion de las Leyes de India." RHEM RICK CORPUZ
Criminal Laws under Spain By virtue of a Royal Decree of September 4, 1884,
the Code thus prepared by the Code Committee was ordered enforced in the Philippines. Some of the objections to the enforcement of the Code were raised by the "Gobierno General" to the Minister of Ultramar, but notwithstanding such objections, in a subsequent Royal Decree dated December 17, 1886, the Code was ordered promulgated. The Penal Code together with the "Ley Engiciamiento Criminal" were then enforced, both laws taking effect four months thereafter, in accordance with the provisions of the Decree "Legislacion Ultramarina" of March 13, 1887.

Classification of Prisoners as to Security risk Super Maximum Security A small portion of any prison institution population consist of incorrigibles, recidivist, escape artist and chronic trouble makers. This category of prisoners should be confined in a unit or institution separate from the general inmates population. The number does not constitute 10% of the whole population. Is it small so as not to justify their confinement in a separate prison. Ideally they should confined in a super maximum type of prison. Like Alcatraz were escape is quite impossible. Is it practical therefore to build a super security facility unit within a maximum prison for the incorrigible and trouble makers.
Classification of Prisoners as to security risk Maximum Security This shall include highly dangerous or high security risk inmates as determine by the classification board who require a high degree of control and supervision. Under this category are: a. Those sentence to death b. Those whose minimum sentence is twenty years imprisonment c. Remand inmates or detainees whose sentence is twenty years and above and those whose sentences are under review by the supreme court or court of appeal. d. Those with pending cases e. Recidivist, habitual delinquents, and escapees f. Those confine at the RDC. g. Those under disciplinary punishment or safekeeping and h. Those who are criminally insane or those with severe personality or emotional disorders that make them dangerous to fellow inmates or the prisons staffs.
Maximum security Institution This type of institutions usually enclosed by thick wall enclosures. 18-25 feet high. On top of the walls are catwalls, along which the guards patrol at night. At corner and the strategic places are tower posts man armed by heavily armed guards. The housing units within the walls are of the interior cell block types. Inmates confined in this type of institution are not allowed to work outside the institutions but are assigned to industrial shop within the prison compound.
Medium security This shall include those who cannot be trusted in less secured areas and those whose conduct or behavior require minimum supervision. Under this category are; a. Those whose minimum sentence is less than twenty (20) years imprisonment. b. Remand inmates or detainees whose sentences are below twenty (20) years. c. Those who are 18 years of age and below, regardless of the case and his sentence. d. Those who have two or more records of escapes. They can be classified as medium security inmates if they have serve eight years since they were recommitted. Those with one record of escape must serve five years. e. First offender sentenced to life imprisonment.they may be classified as medium security if they have serve five years in a maximum security prison or less upon recommendation of the superintendent.
The Medium security institution This type of institution is usually enclosed by two layers of wire fence. The inner fence is 12 feet to 14 high with curb and the outer fence is 8 to 12 feet high. Usually the top portion of the fence is provided with barbed wire. The perimeter fence requires a minimum number of personnel to guard it. The housing units consist of outer single cells, honor rooms, and dormitories. The inmates maybe allowed to work outside the fence under guard escorts.
Minimum security This shall include those who cannot be reasonably trusted to serve their sentences under less restricted conditions. Under this category are; a.. Those with severe physical handicap as certified by the chief medical officer. b.. Those who are 65 years old and above with pending case and whose convictions are not on appeal. c.. Those who have serve one-half of their minimum sentence or one-third of their maximum sentence excluding their GCTA. d.. Those who have only six months more to serve before the expiration of their sentence.
The minimum security institution; This type of institution is usually without a fence and if there is one, its purpose is to keep away civilian population from the entering institution rather than preventing escapes. There are no bars or keys to dormitories nor armed guards with in the institutions. The housing units are composed of dormitories requiring or no little supervision by correctional workers. The united nation congress held in Geneva and in London in 1960 and 1965 passed resolutions urging more use of open institutions. Penologist believe that the reformation of prisoners can be attained more effectively and speedily and with least expresses in open institutions than in a maximum or in medium security institutions.
Classification of Prisoners According to Degree of Security 4. Minimum Security Prisoners - A group of prisoners who can be reasonably trusted to serve sentence under ―open conditions‖. - This group includes prisoners who can be trusted to report to their work assignments without the presence of guards. - They occupy the Minimum Security Prison (Camp Bukang Liwayway) and wear brown color uniforms.
