Prisons are full of criminals and aggressive angry people; riots are not a very common occurrence with prison guards keeping most inmates under control‚ but they do happen. After the riot subdues‚ since it is common for some inmates to detain a guard or other prison employee so that the riot can take place without interruption‚ the inmates would be charged for false imprisonment‚ hostage taking‚ and most evidently rioting would be the main charge for the inmates involved.
