Septmenber 14, a man who sued a corporate run Idaho prison, known as “Gladiator School”, for extreme violence and medical neglect, has reached a settlement with Corrections Corporation of America.
CCA is the largest corporate prison operation in the United States, and also has the worst reputation.
Dozens of other inmates across the U.S. are also suing the Nashville, Tennessee, based CCA.
Reports are that CCA wants to settle all cases as quietly as possible, and soon. CCA officials hope to have all cases settled by the end of the week.
The Idaho Correctional Center, run by CCA, is so violent that it’s called “Gladiator School”. Lawsuits claim that guards used inmate on inmate violence as a management tool, and then denied injured prisoners adequate medical care. In one case, security camera video was leaked, showing a prisoner being beaten for hours, while guards watched. That’s your Idaho tax dollars at work folks!
By the way, CCA is a major supporter of the Idaho Republican party!!!
