It does, actually, apply to someone with a life sentence who rapes another inmate and infects that individual with a deadly STD. That can, and has been, considered murder by some courts, and the death penalty will, most likely, be imposed.
It can help Johnny 420, also, because of the Safe Prisons Program. The primary focus for the Safe Prisons Program is to prevent and limit the number of offender on offender sexual assaults. The Safe Prisons Program has developed various strategies to educate offenders and correctional staff concerning the importance of preventing sexual assaults, extortion and offender physical assaults. One particular strategy is the process of offenders educating offenders (Peer Education) on sexual assault awareness. The Safe Prisons Program is responsible for database management regarding sexual assaults. The program also facilitates an agency wide assessment tool known as the (UCP) Unit Cultural Profile, to measure the institutional environment for staff and offender morale, professionalism, and communication.
In other words, we, the officers, are actually trying to help little Johnny 420 to not get his butthole flexed.
