Lady Rikers Guards Still Can't Keep Their Hands Off Sexy Prisoners

It's sort of like this...but not really

Just because you can't dress up sexy to visit Rikers Island anymore doesn't mean you can't get frisky if you work there instead. A female corrections officer was just busted for having sex with a male inmate...again.

The lady officers at Rikers have a storied history of hooking up with their charges, so really, Andrea Buchanan was just taking part in a longstanding tradition. Buchanan, who worked at Rikers for six years, was arrested and charged with sexual misconduct, forcible touching, and official misconduct for her alleged tryst with an inmate at the Eric M. Taylor Center last month. She was suspended without pay from her $76,488-a-year-job. Hear that, gentlemen golddiggers? Rikers Island is the place to be to snag yourself a gainfully employed, sex-starved woman. Hop to it!

In real life, men treat her like any other woman who looks like "Precious". In the joint, she's Farrah circa 1979.

Kind of hard to maintain your grip on reality in Otherworld.

I'm surprised they named a center at Rikers after Coach Taylor.

These guards are only a hair removed from those they watch over.

Buchanan, who worked at Rikers for six years, was arrested and charged with sexual misconduct, forcible touching (REALLY?)

Jamie, this kind of talk is irresponsible and not funny. It's probably considered forcible touching because she's in a position of power.

Pierce Inverarity

I would accept irresponsible or not funny, but not both. Actually I thought it was respnsible "and" funny. Who made you judge and jury, susie? Lighten up , dipstick.

thus its forcible touching

FU Boy

But the implication of the (REALLY?) [now removed] is that a woman can't 'forcibly touch' a man. Either the guy always likes getting groped or because it's a frail woman and she can't force him to do anything.

Either way, it's playing up the stupid double standard that women just can't sexually assault a man.

"forcible touching (REALLY?)"
Woman gets forcibly touched by male: Sexual abuse!

Man gets forcibly touched by female: Really?
