Neighbourhood Cops 12 - Secure for the night

Brody - time for lights out

The sudden influx of detainees generated by the '4S' regime
meant that jail space was soon under pressure
Some prisoners were placed in temporary 'overflow' accomodation,
generously provided by the Prison Governor and his staff
who were permitted to pick out who they wanted as a 'guest'

The furnishings were more comfortable than normal jail cells
and rooms quieter without the incessant racket of the main prison
but the arrangement was not without disadvantages for prisoners.
Their restraints were much tighter to maintain security

And some hosts who popped in at 'lights out' to say their goodnights
might also reveal that the bed would be shared by them both.
Prisoners experiences varied, the Governor's nights
were very different to the lowly janitorial staff.


and it wasn't unknown for 'guests' to 'get lost'.

Neighbourhood Cops 11 - In-Cell Restraint

Many new arrivals were sent straight to bed in bleak cells.
They might be allowed some crude shorts to cover their nudity
but soon discovered that, being made of very coarse material
they were actually worse than wearing nothing
a scratchy accompaniment to sleepness nights.

 The cops kept their prisoners in constraints continuously, even in cells.
They learned how to adjust their discomfort levels.
The days of inmates angrily screaming and shouting abuse
from the refuge of their cells were abruptly ended.
For fear of a guard coming to tweak their restraints

The cops workplace quality of life was greatly improved.

Neighbourhood Cops 10 - Introduction to Jail

The detainees soon discovered that it wasn't just the arrest procedure that had changed.
The jail guards made sure that every newcomer understood how the new system worked.
They tried to do it in a caring way, naturally,
but most felt it was best that the boys knew exactly where they stood.

Neighbourhood Cops 9 - On Parade

When the Cops had had their fun with the quaking, bare suspects,
they put them under formal arrest and transported them to the Station House.
There they were paraded and photographed - still naked and handcuffed
often watched by a frightening crowd of cat-calling, off-duty Officers
who gleefully spelt out what awaited them inside.

Neighbourhood Cops 8 - Stop and Sedate

The 'gym run', looking for men possessing illegal steroids was a popular assignment
But some of these guys were too big to be easily controlled by a cop on his own

To overcome this problem patrol men were issued with injectors
containing fast-acing sedatives, able to quell violent resistance
 and ensure compliance with the total strip requirement.

The trouble was men in this group, when they were stripped,
often revealed plumped-up, jock pouches and rounded pecs on muscular torsos.

Tempting sights for Officers itching to use their injectors.


A number of these men, including some who had submitted without sedation,
arrived at the cop shop with needle marks in unusual places
and remembering little about their arrest.

Neighbourhood Cops 7 - Deep Search

The Cops took full advantage of their strip and search powers
Every possible hiding place was thoroughly investigated.
It was a challenging job that didn't always yield incriminating evidence
but they made sure that the punks would always remember
 the intimate thoroughness of their painstaking probing.

Neighbourhood Cops 6 - Learning his fate

Naturally, most young punks became much more compliant
when their balls were hanging out in the open

But being stripped naked was only the start.

Under the '4S' powers the arresting cop
was free to carry out intimate searches
and even to administer an arbitrary punishment,
one of his own choosing, in public or in private.

Hearing the cop read out their rights - and his
Suspects trembled, not knowing what to expect.
