Why is there more turnover with guards than prisoners?


It seems like the prisoners that are there are pretty much in there for life. Which seems odd considering that its a minimum security prison. You could say that it takes place over a condensed period of time, but it always seems like there's rapid turnover at the guard position. Maybe legitimate (thankless low paying job) but still ironic regardless.

But still, it seems like people rarely get released.

Plot convenience.

Turover rate for guards is higher than any other in law enforcement. Underpaid, over worked and under trained.
