It's one way to meet men.
The (all black) female guards working at Rikers Island are sex-starved and promiscuous with the prisoners they are there to keep in line, says a former guard.
"They would do it on the midnight shift when there were not many people around," according to Yolanda Dickinson, who worked at Rikers from 1997 to 2004 and recently penned a novel called "Taboo," based on the jail's out-of-control sex scene.
"They have electronic cell doors, and it's not a problem for someone to crack open the door," she added.
With 3,890 female officers guarding some 12,000 men, outlaw love blossoms. "It's a soap opera," Dickinson says.
LIGHTS OUT: Fiction writer Yolanda Dickinson says Rikers guards had sex with inmates.
"There are a lot of lonely single women on the job, and you're surrounded by these cute guys. They're working out. They're attractive," she says.
"They're criminals, so they have a cunning way of approaching you. They study you all day."
Though she claims she never had sex at work (LIAR!!!!), Dickinson, 41, admits that she met a Rikers inmate on her watch, a gang member from her neighborhood who had admitted to killing a rapist.
"People looked up to him for that. He said he did the world a favor," she said.
She says her soft spot for him developed after he defended her honor behind bars by beating up another inmate who groped her.
"It made me look at him differently," she said.
Another ex-boyfriend, the father of her 17-year-old son, served 10 years in federal prison on drug charges.
She was fired for "undue familiarity" in 2004 after an inmate called her from Rikers and she denied to probers that she had gotten the call.
At least six female guards have been fired or forced out for undue familiarity with prisoners since 2007, including Kimberly Hurd, 39, who bore an inmate's love child; Yolanda Turner-Goodwin, 44, who was photographed hugging and kissing a prisoner; and Kadessha Mulgrav, 34, who allegedly sneaked away for a midnight liaison with cop killer Lee Woods in a shower room.
"Undue familiarity is illegal, and it compromises safety and security," said Correction spokesman Stephen Morello.
But Dickinson said it's so pervasive, it'd be difficult to prevent.
She once saw a letter from an inmate that graphically recalled his X-rated romp with an officer: "It was detailed."
Note:
With women saying that all the good men are in jail what's a women to do? She does not go as far as to bust them out, but she does help them bust something. She gets a job in a jail cause that's where are the good men are?
In her own words:
"There are a lot of lonely single women on the job, and you're surrounded by these cute guys. They're working out. They're attractive," she says.
Good guys can't catch a break. Now she is a nice looking sister, I bet plenty of decent men have tried to talk to her and her coworkers but were maybe, not good enough? That statement by itself sounds strange, so I think I will stop now. The end!

A reply from a NY Post reader who appears to have been a supervisor at Rikers:
Bryan says that her bosses would discipline her harshly while letting the male guards, who were allegedly getting freaking on the job as well, off of the hook.
She also claims that “DOC female supervisory employees engaged in a pattern and practice of discriminating and/or permitting discrimination against female uniformed members engaged in consensual sexual relationships with male uniformed members based on a perception or belief that women are responsible for the initiation of these sexual relationships,” according to reporting by The Post.
Byran’s suit, according to The Post, alleges that her working conditions became miserable after her relationship with Bailey became known in July 2010. She says she was subjected to “verbal and physical abuse. derogatory comments and unjustified disciplinary actions,” in addition to being given “dangerous and/or undesired assignments” and “subjected to a bogus ‘random’ drug test.”
Her relationship with Bailey reportedly soured after she pressed domestic abuse charges him. She claims he punched her in the face, kicked her in the stomach and punched a hole through her wall at her Brooklyn apartment. Baily was arrested on harassment and assault charges. He eventually pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and received a conditional discharge, according to The Post. Baily has since retired.
Byran says the ordeal has left her with emotional stress, pain and suffering. The DOC in a statement had this to say on the matter:
“We took Officer Bryan’s complaints seriously, looked into the issues she raised at length, and made repeated good faith efforts to address her concerns. There is no basis to support her claim that she was the victim of retaliatory action or discrimination by the Department of Correction.”

The New York City Department of Correction has always had low life officers working as officers. I hate to say this but it needs saying because it's true... Many of the Officers at Rikers are African American and honestly many of them behave just like the inmates in manner and speech. I'm not sure what's happened with Blacks in America but I will say that Black women in the New York City Department of Correction NOT ALL! but many of them are Ghetto minded welfare recipients possessed with a materialistic mindset.
I hated having to manage many of them and to be honest there are the Black officers that are very disciplined,educated and hardworking decent people. But the Black women C.O's as I mentioned are very loud and boisterous as well as too familiar with the inmates they are sworn to keep Care Custody and Control over. I wish I could name names but I won't. Prison Love between Inmates and Officers is as old as HDM and C95 Okay I'm done.
Kadessha Mulgrav, 34,
allegedly sneaked away for a midnight liaison
with cop killer Lee Woods in a shower room.
The Break down:
1.) NYC's Angry Black Females have a haven in which to wield "some" power.
2.) Very few normal females would want to do this job, but to the Matriarchal minded
Black female, this is a great chance to be in a position to power over Black males.
3.) Doing this job, the ghetto minded ABF gains a sense of power and feeds into
loads of drama / danger. This satisfies her urges.
4.) The prison environment gives the "homegirls" instant access to the males that
they understand best --- Aka ---- Thugs.
5.) By working in a prison, gun on hip, the ABF gets to pick and choose which thug
She wants most and do with thug what she wants. It's like an intensified version
of ghetto life.
6.) The greatest bang for the buck is that she can suck um, fuck um and always
remain "independent" because half of these thugs ain't getting out! LOL!
Update September 21, 2012
A new discrimination lawsuit filed in the Bronx Supreme Court on Monday alleges that sex between officers and supervisors is “rampant” at the city’s jails on Riker’s Island and no one is doing anything to stop it, according to the New York Post.
The officer filing the claim against the city’s Department of Corrections (DOC), Tomara Bryan (pictured) accuses her female supervisors of verbally and physically abusing her after discovering that she was having a consensual affair with married ex-warden Emmanuel Bailey.
