520 | _a"Leroy Nelson wanted to be a police officer, but his extensive criminal record--which included convictions for armed robbery and indecent exposure--barred him from a job on the force. It didn't prevent him from getting a job as a prison guard....A five-month Detroit News investigation found that the Corrections Department has left staffers with criminal backgrounds or multiple complaints of sexual abuse on the job for years. In addition, prison officials are sometimes slow to investigate charges of abuse, quick to dismiss inmate complaints and lenient with guards who violate department rules and state law." (DETROIT NEWS AND FREE PRESS) This article examines how the Corrections Department's "policies have allowed the 20-year-old issue of sexual harassment and abuse of female inmates by officers in Michigan prisons to remain a serious problem." | ||
