Title
Some Protection
Description
Josie O'Dwyer, then an ex-inmate, narrates her experiences with the unjust and corrupt prison system in the United Kingdom. Though not explicitly stated, O'Dwyer's interest in women is briefly depicted in one scene, illustrating how officers prevented inmates from forming close bonds with each other.
Information available online about O'Dwyer, including her sexuality, is limited. However, an article from the Daily Gazette "Prison death riddle as inquest returns open verdict" in 1998 discussed her potential interest in women. The article focused on an alleged relationship between O'Dwyer and a nurse that occurred prior to O'Dwyer's death on October 27, 1997.
