Federal investigators were again searching a troubled women's prison in Dublin seizing computers and documents in an apparent escalation of a yearslong sexual abuse investigation that led to previous charges against a former warden and other employees.
Federal investigators were again searching a troubled women's prison in Dublin seizing computers and documents in sexual abuse investigation.FBI agents Monday raided the Women's Federal Correctional Institute in Dublin seizing computers and documents. The FBI didn't say why they are searching the facility, but this location has been the center of an ongoing investigation in sexual abuse and misconduct from prison staff.
"Consistent with unprecedented and ongoing actions by FBOP leadership to create a positive change in the culture at FCI Dublin, recent developments have necessitated new executive employees be installed at the institution," a spokesperson said in an email. "We can confirm N.T. McKinney has been assigned as the interim Warden at FCI Dublin effective immediately."
"They referred to it as a rape club," said former U.S. Representative Jackie Speier. "I wanted to speak with certain inmates there because I was told they had been raped and they had resisted letting me meet with them."A prison in California known as the 'Rape Club' for its culture of sexual assault is under scrutiny. A Fresno woman says she can expose its secrets.
This is one of many issues plaguing the federal prison system, including suicides, escapes and rampant staff shortages. Both Shapiro and Rep. Speier are calling on the DOJ to investigate all the prisons to bring necessary reform.
