Inmate of the Month
Joey Vespucci
- Note: In the interest of transparency, and being able to allow inmates to represent themselves this interview is direct quotes from the interviewed inmate and their quotes do not represent the SADOC's views and beliefs.
- Why do you do illegal things?
- I feel there are changes that need to be made in the government that aren't happening
- What's your favorite thing about DOC?
- You guys are super understanding and take the time to know people for who they are and not their charges
- What's your least favorite thing?
- I understand why you all have to do it, but the times when I'm just chilling and all the sudden we all get put in a cell for a long time, like I just sitting here why do I need to go into a cell
- If you could change one thing about DOC, what would it be?
- I wish there was a little bit more to do outside
- What would you do if you were Warden for a day?
- Give it to back to Kourtney, there is no way I could run this place. I really enjoy it here and there isn't much I would change
- Is there someone or something you miss while being in jail?
- My cars
- Why do you think you're in here so often?
- Probably the terrorism and lack of care of the speed limit, but I do sometimes come here just to see yall (DOC)
- Is there anything you'd like to tell people?
- No more 24-hour license suspensions. I'm not asking you take them away entirely but that is entirely too long
Get To Know SADOC's Command
Commander - Galileo Czapiewski
We have decided that each month we will introduce a member of our Command Team, and help you get to know them a little better. For February, we have decided to introduce our Commander of Administration, Galileo Czapiewski.
Commander Czapiewski has been part of the San Andreas Department of Corrections for a little over a year now and has worked his way to a Command position, being appointed Commander of Administration. Galileo oversees the administrative side of DOC and is heavily involved in the Supervisor in Training program, ensuring that those who wish to join the Supervisor team are trained and ready to take up their new role. Galileo is also the Assistant Head Groundskeeper, Chief Instructor (Correctional Field Training Command), Human Resources Command and Correctional Services Command.
Galileo stated his biggest achievement within his time at the Department of Corrections was obtaining his rank within Command in August of 2023. Commander Czapiewski notes his most memorable moment at the SADOC was when Captain Randy Lee shouted for a "Code 1" over the department radio accidentally.
Commander Czapiewski's biggest challenge within the DOC is stated as being assaulted in the showers by an inmate. Other challenges he has faced during his tenure at DOC involve crashing into a missile and injuring himself. Galileo states he does not struggle much with his role but always strives to be better and train officers to be the best they can be!
Galileo's advice to anyone starting out is to just wing it! You never know what you are capable of until you leave your comfort zone.

Correctional Officer Spotlight
- What is your most memorable moment while serving as a corrections officer for the SADOC?
Where do you see yourself in 3 months time?I've only been here for about a month and already there's been so many to choose from. If I have to pick just one I'd choose a situation from the other night. A call came in from the front desk but knowing there was a problematic inmate that was due for release soon, myself and the only other officer on shift were on high alert. Long story short the person was a parkour master and ended up on one of the interior rooftops. They were eventually apprehended and I definitely got my cardio in that night.
What is your favorite thing about being a corrections officer at the SADOC?Now that I've reached COII I'm planning on applying for the CERT Division. I'm also going to be keeping up my work in K9 and Groundskeeping. In three months I'm hoping to be at least a COIII if not an SCO and a full member of the CERT, K9, and Groundskeeping divisions.The vibes. I joined DOC expecting to deal with a lot of angry and violent individuals, and while that has absolutely happened I'm surprised by the amount of chill and cool people who get arrested. And everyone else who works at DOC are also really easy to get along with. I was expecting this to honestly just be a second job but DOC's already become like a little family to me.
