The US government will pay $116 million to settle lawsuits filed by over 100 women who allege abuse and mistreatment at a former California federal prison known as the 'rape club'.
The U.S. government will pay nearly $116 million to resolve lawsuits brought by more than 100 women who say they were abused or mistreated at a now-shuttered federal prison in California that was known as the “rape club” because of rampant staff-on-inmate sexual misconduct. The Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, California, was closed in 2018.
Women who were incarcerated at the prison allege they were subjected to sexual assault, physical abuse, and other forms of mistreatment by staff. The Department of Justice is also facing scrutiny for its handling of the allegations and its failure to prevent the abuse from occurring.
