Insufficient Monitoring

A good deal of prisoner rights abuse happens simply because prison officials do not properly monitor prisoner interactions and conduct. Prisoners not only need to be kept safe from corrupt prison authorities, but from dangerous fellow inmates.

Reports from a prisoner complaining about threats from another inmate are routinely ignored in some prisons in this country. In other institutions, prisoners who have already been assaulted are unable to obtain legal redress or police security. Such insufficient monitoring is dangerous also because it can lead to riots and insurgencies that could have been prevented had prison staff done their jobs.

Unfortunately, poor prison management is a national as well as global problem, and it occurs in many jails and prisons across our nation. Jail abuse doesn't just happen intentionally; often it happens through the negligent actions of prison management officials.

If we want to end the abuse of prison inmates, we have to take a stand. Mistreatment of prison inmates is a national problem. Any type of physical, psychological, or social mistreatment that produces a hostile or otherwise unsafe prison environment could be considered an example of prisoner abuse in a court of law.
