Child Rapist Sues for getting raped in jail

[MorphCross]

thats an easy problem...they use the guards. Or apparently have a buddy use a drone if I've been reading the news right lately

You don't have to convince me of the ease that drugs and cigs flow into some prisons due to corruption in the guards. I could come up with all kinds of fantasy scenarios "if I was a prison warden" on how I would handle those issues along with handling the prisoners. Unfortunately those programs could be construed as "cruel and unusual."

Agreed. I have always wanted to tour how prison/jail staff enters and exits work, because there is clearly a problem.

I used to think it was blown out of proportion, until I dealt with 30 or so cases of contraband in a jail facility (usually cellphones) it ALWAYS came back to a guard. Really disappointing, since they were all sheriffs.

It won't, he actually has a legitimate claim.

Of course he does, in this country he has more rights than his victim(s).

From prison? He would make more friends figuring a way to get drugs and cigarettes into prison then exploiting children.

The point of prisons is that the guards have to maintain discipline among their own ranks as well as among the prisoners. If they turn a blind eye to criminal actions in prison lawsuits are bound to happen. They can be sued and lose if an inmate who clearly discusses plans to and does commit suicide and they do nothing to prevent it through upping bed checks on that inmate.

Won't be in prison forever. Especially not if he can become a bleeding heart, "I was raped in jail" case.

I didn't see what his sentence was, I didn't think about that. But I'm sure its shockingly low, especially if the judge imposed sentencing...

This is goin no where. If this was actually able to be won every inmate would sue and get special treatment.

I don't think the citizens if Walla Walla will look favorably in his claim at trial. Fairly conservative area. They know all about the prison life at the State pen and child rapists.

they would bench trial it. You don't have to use a jury.

Which is the real problem. Child molesters can bide their time once they get out and that is why people end up allowing their children to be around "Harry from down the street who seems like such a sweet friendly old man." I say lock them up and throw away the key.

Indeed. God/Allah/Shiva help him if I were ever on that jury.
