When is voyeurism considered a violation of inmate privacy?

Voyeurism is considered a violation of inmate privacy when staff captures images unrelated to official duties. This is because such actions invade the personal space and privacy rights of the inmates without a legitimate purpose related to their safety, security, or the operational needs of the facility. Capturing images for personal curiosity or entertainment breaches the ethical boundaries expected of staff and violates inmates' rights to privacy.

The other scenarios do not typically constitute voyeurism. Observing inmates during exercise or monitoring inmate behavior may be necessary for security and safety and are typically part of the staff's responsibilities. Inmate participation in educational programs is generally conducted in a manner that respects their rights and privacy, allowing for oversight without intruding inappropriately. Overall, capturing images without an official purpose crosses the line into voyeurism, as it has no legitimate justification within the context of correctional operations.
