DUBLIN – The group Dublin Prison Solidarity Coalition protested near the facility, along the route where buses have transferred inmates to other facilities.On Monday, the federal Bureau of Prison s announced they would close FCI- Dublin following reform attempts.'Despite these steps and resources, we have determined that FCI Dublin is not meeting expected standards and that the best course of action is to close the facility,' Bureau of Prison s Director Colette Peters said.
'Advocates said 'chaos unfolded' at the facility since the announcement, 'traumatizing incarcerated people who have already been subjected to immense harm by the BOP, including rampant staff sexual abuse, retaliation, and medical neglect.'The group also claims that the BOP has proceeded with moving inmates despite an order from a federal judge that inmates need to be evaluated for release and be medically cleared before being transferred.
