About 4 years ago a dispatcher in Houston open my eyes to the world of emergency communications and dispatchers. This past year the same happened but this time with corrections officers. I had no idea of the events that happen behind those walls and the situations these COs have to deal with. It’s not always about discipline and restraint, sometimes it’s about compassion and benevolence. Here’s a recent portrait I completed of some female COs from Canada.
