#Repressive violence: officials vs. inmates. Example: Friday, 2 October 1992, military police stormed Carandiru Penitentiary in São Paulo, Brazil, following a prison riot after a soccer game. By the end of the day, 111 prisoners were dead; and 37 more were injured. Gunshot wounds were mainly found in the face, head, throat and chest. Hands among the dead were found in front of the face or behind the head suggesting defensive positions. Police were also reported killing witnesses, wounded prisoners, and even those forced to remove bodies. No policeman was injured.  Evidence suggests that many prisoners were, defenceless and intentionally extrajudicially executed.

#Revolting violence: inmates vs. officials. Heather Ann Thompson (2016) Blood in the Water. The Attica Prison Uprising of 1971 and Its Legacy. - As an indirect result of the Attica uprising, the New York State Department of Corrections 1) began a grievance procedure, in which inmates could grieve (object to) actions by a staff member that violated stated policy, 2) started at each prison a program under which the warden and other senior management meet on a monthly basis with elected representatives of the inmates, and 3) began allowing packages to inmates to be received year-round.

Revolting violence can have a containment effect on repressive violence as in the case of the Brazilian PCC. See Graham Denyer-Willis (2015) The Killing Consensus: Police, Organized Crime, and the Regulation of Life and Death in Urban Brazil. Durham: Duke University Press.
