The discovery of sexually explicit phone recordings between male guards at an Edmonton prison was mishandled, and likely put some staff members at risk — according to corrections staff with direct knowledge of what happened. During those conversations, the sources say, male guards made demeaning sexual comments about some of their female co-workers. Sources say listening to the recordings revealed the sexually explicit conversations, and that someone alerted management about them in the summer of 2016. Some of the women mentioned on the tapes have been told very little about their content, or the potential risk to them, sources say. She hopes these new sexual harassment allegations at the Edmonton Institution can be a turning point.
