Jeff Tieku opens up about ten years working as a prison officer, revealing the reality of life behind bars, from violent attacks and prison riots to dealing with some of the country's most dangerous criminals. What started as a job he never expected to do for so long became a decade that exposed him to things most people would never experience.
Jeff shares some of the most shocking incidents he witnessed, including prisoners being stabbed with homemade weapons, officers caught bringing drugs and phones inside, and the bizarre story of an inmate who cooked his own faeces in a kettle before throwing it at another prisoner. He explains how prison riots begin, what happens when officers are sent in to regain control and how he became known as someone who could handle difficult situations and build relationships with inmates.
After ten years, Jeff eventually reached a point where he had seen too much. He opens up about how the job affected his mental health, changed his attitude towards violence and left him feeling institutionalised, even outside prison. Despite everything, he has no regrets about the people he helped and hopes to be remembered as an officer who genuinely made a difference.
This is the eventful life of Jeff Tieku.
