Upper admin could care less, I know this as a former lieutenant. There's really nothing more demoralizing than realizing that wardens put politics over officer safety.
I have left the job, however I do not advocate anyone else leave. That would not be fair to the other good men and women. I'm not a cry-baby that just brings everyone's mood down in turnout because they're mad that a lieutenant had the audacity to assign them to work a housing area. I left discreetly for my own reasons.
I hope it gets better, but TDCJ needs the right people, but the wrong people are at top. Which is why it has taken way too long to initiate a search like this. Money and politics go hand in hand for the directors until they couldn't contain the violence and contraband anymore.
I feel you 100% for this comment.
