Prison Romance

Please use the provided chapter along with two other sources of your choice to answer this question and follow directions.

You are a prison counselor and have a good relationship with the other counselors. You all go out drinking and socializing after work sometimes, and in general you like and respect everyone. Recently, you have noticed that something seems to be going on with one of the other counselors. Stella is usually outgoing and cheerful, but lately she seems distracted and upset. You see her in the parking lot one evening and ask her what is wrong. She confides to you that she is in love with one of the inmates. She knows that it is wrong, but she says that they had instant chemistry and that he is like no man she has ever known. She has been slipping him love notes, and he has been writing to her. There has been no physical contact to date. You tell her that she has to stop it or else quit her job. She tearfully tells you that she can’t let him go and that she can’t afford to quit her job. She tells you to keep quiet or you’ll get her fired. What would (should) you do?
In your discussion, please address ethical as well as legal aspects. You may have to do some research on ethical guidelines for correctional personnel.
