Florida Moves Thousands of Prisoners As Irma Nears

The Florida State Correction Bureau organized the greatest prisoner evacuation in state history this week and moved more than 7,000 of the county's 97,000 prisoners to a safer place.

State prisoners serving in facilities located in lowlands are being transported to higher places and more robust places. According to the standard agreement, 31 state government facilities in evacuation are posted on the correction service website, "The location of the prisoner is posted on the website within about 24 hours after resettlement I will.

Evacuation of local and county prisons is handled on a case by case basis. According to FL Keys News, in Monroe County, all 460 prisoners of war were evacuated to a prison in Palm Beach County.

According to the website, the Federal Prison Bureau "has moved additional staff to the area to support relief activities." Can not comment on BOP

According to reports by the International Poverty Alleviation Organization, Hurricane Ima destroyed the power of the MDC Guaynabo of the Puerto Rican Federal Prison, "All staff and prisoners of this institution are counted."

The Florida state prison system is the third largest prison system in the United States, according to Miami Herald, "Trusted information" suggests the possibility of an uprising, all Florida state prisons are in the weeks It is locked. There is an influence.

When a natural disaster occurs, the so-called "second class citizen" is often the latter. The terrorist incident experienced by prisoners during Hurricane Katrina was a national standard for dealing with prisoners during the disaster. In Orleans Parish Prison, prisoners of war "There is no electricity, no food, no water, they are in contaminated water until their chest and neck are made," ACLU said. "When the locked tassel started flood, the prisoners raised some signs for help near the broken window, but others jumped into the lower water."

According to Bloomberg News, the Texas Criminal Justice Department is waiting for evacuation of 6,000 prisoners three days after Hurricane Harvey landed. The state of the flood complicates the evacuation and the prisoner complains about the problem of water supply and sewerage

Evie Litwok, director of Large Latest Prisoners of Witnesses at LGBTQ, worked at the Federal Correction Organization in Florida. Litwok stated from evacuation that some prisoners could be at risk from a medical point of view. "If you need insulin, or in the case of high blood pressure you have to get this medicine to someone every day, and if 7000 people move, you can not leave 7000 medical records in the new prison," she said I say.

Hurricane Harvey and Irma hit the southern US This fall, prisons built in areas where floods are prone to occur a couple of years ago traveled directly to their roads. Thousands of prisoners in Texas and Florida together are housing more than 250,000 prisoners - about 16% of the US prison population - have to evacuate to safer facilities. However, other people, including 1,812 male prisoners at Tx Beaumont's Federal Low Security facility, had problems. Authorities decided that Beaumont's prisoners have enough food and water supplies to withstand the flood, but the subsequent report is speaking another - the prisoner's illness worsens

For those who did not know, after destroying most of the Caribbean, including Puerto Rico and St. Martin, Ilma was a large Category 5 hurricane attacking Florida. Pork County is a county in Florida and is convenient for rhyming with "blessings of pig". Their county prison is a provincial facility and is currently investigating the recent series of prisoners' deaths including those earlier this week. First of all, why do we have to check ID to get rid of the road to natural disasters? We are still discussing the ethics to force people to show their identity cards to vote. Asking residents to "provide identification or hurricane to face death" seems like a subplot in the game of power. I think the hurricane shelter probably should not have a body guard.
