Justice Dept Exposes Abuse in CA Prisons | Roanoke News

from Roanoke News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Department of Justice has slammed California’s prison system for systemic failures in protecting incarcerated women from sexual abuse by guards, citing shocking cases like a 224-year sentence for a guard who abused inmates for decades. Investigations at two major facilities revealed deeply flawed reporting systems—non-confidential online portals accessible to accused officers—and investigators themselves facing abuse allegations. With just 49 days to respond, federal officials demand urgent reforms: better surveillance, confidential reporting, and stronger oversight to safeguard vulnerable inmates and restore accountability.
