Prisoner rape is not an isolated occurrence. Tens of thousands of prisoners in jails and prisons are raped by other prisoners, or guards.

A homosexual male raping a straight male prisoner is almost unknown. Women prisoners have been raped by male inmates as well as the guards assigned to oversee them.
