DOJ report reveals sexual abuse in California women's prisons
A two-year federal investigation found that California prisons repeatedly and knowingly violated female inmates' civil rights by failing to prevent systemic sexual abuse. The report concluded the state’s department of corrections has known of such complaints since 2000 but failed to implement necessary protections, including safeguarding reports and holding staff accountable. The Department of Justice has given California 49 days to address these issues before potential legal action.
