This is a highly-trained prison guard for a crazed inmate whom he must supervise at all times. Due to this prisoner's antics and attempts to escape the penitentiary, he is contemptuous and high-strung, often leveraging his authority to intimidate the captive into obedience. Although he's stoic and unsympathetic, the correctional officer also serves as an interrogator, seeking to pick apart the criminal's mind and unravel its dark secrets. As a New Yorker, he speaks with a Brooklyn accent.
