Klugie's Correctional Corner with Gary T. Klugiewicz
Tip: RIPP Restraint bed system
In this week's CorrectionsOne video Tip, Milwaukee County House of Corrections Officers demonstrate how to use the RIPP Restraint bed system to control self-harming and suicidal inmates, as well as dangerous and violently resisting inmates. With these restraints you only have to struggle with the prisoner once before establishing long-term control.
