"Somebody lowers a rope," the man in the video narrates, "and pulls the bag up, so you can see the bag going up the wall there, OK, right on TV!"

(49,999 posts)Headlines like that imply there is a connection to the prison break. It's sloppy sensationalism.

(43,049 posts)get that pizza past layers of security to hand it off to a guard who eventually gets it to the tower. And how do they arrange how to pay?
The rope is much simpler.

(23,720 posts)that would be my first guess. Does anyone know if this is a prison that has contracted out to the private sector?

(17,055 posts)retired prison guard in CT and her son, my nephew, is still a prison guard in CT. I'll have to ask them if this is usual or normal. Personally, I think it's stupid that any prison would allow such practices.

(904 posts)from my brother who used to live near Auburn Prison, which is also maximum security, is the watch tower is separate from the prison, meaning you cannot get to it through the prison itself. Anything the guard needs is hoisted up to them, since it cannot go through the prison. So I would guess whatever is hoisted up to the watch tower whether it's arms, food or whatever has no way to get into the prison.
