Prison weapons refer to items that inmates may use to inflict harm or assert control within a correctional facility. These weapons can range from makeshift tools, like sharpened objects or broken glass, to more sophisticated items that may be smuggled in. The presence of weapons poses significant safety risks for both inmates and prison staff. Correctional facilities implement strict security measures to prevent the creation and use of weapons. Regular searches, surveillance, and inmate monitoring are essential to maintaining order. Additionally, educational programs aim to reduce violence and promote conflict resolution among inmates, further minimizing the potential for weapon-related incidents.
