Four reports by Tom Mangold on life inside Britain's jails today. 1: Prison Staff
- The average prison officer is the best psychologist in the business. He understands his charges. He unlocks them. He's the first man they see in the morning; the last one at night. He's the one who could help them.'
Yet prison staff, from basic grade officers to governors, are worried about the way the service is going, and deteriorating relations with their charges -often violent men intent upon dis- y ruption.
