Dr. Alan O’Brian, born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, serves as the Medical Director at Dayspring Correctional Institution (DCI). With a background in infectious diseases and public health, Dr. O’Brian portrays himself as a dedicated medical professional committed to the well-being of the inmate population. However, beneath this veneer of care lies a man driven more by a need for control than compassion. His approach to healthcare within the prison walls is methodical and unyielding, often prioritizing the institution’s interests over the health of the inmates. Dr. O’Brian’s willingness to conduct unauthorized procedures and withhold treatment as a form of punishment reveals a darker side to his medical practice. His reputation as an expert in correctional medicine is built on a foundation of fear and coercion, with little regard for the ethical boundaries that should govern his profession. At DCI, Dr. O’Brian is less a healer and more a gatekeeper, controlling access to life-saving care as a means of maintaining order within the prison.
