New York State Prisons: How to Avoid Rape in Prison - Men's Orientation

In 2015, New York State prisons began showing state-made orientation videos offering advice on how to identify, and avoid, sexual predators behind bars. This is the version that male prisoners would see. The Marshall Project obtained exclusive access to the state-made videos, which were funded through a grant from the federal government under the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA). The videos were directed by T.J. Parsell, who shares how he was raped in prison, and feature other people imprisoned across New York. Incarcerated people workshopped the videos' content and are referred to as the experts.
