A bill to install security cameras in the nation's 122 federal prisons could soon become law, in a move championed by sex survivor advocates and many correctional officers themselves.
During the trial, former FCI Dublin unit manager Stephanie Milliken testified that the prison lacks enough cameras, not all of them that are there actually work, not all of them are monitored and that footage can be deleted for unknown reasons and unknown times.
"I have brought up this camera issue for more than a decade," Canales told KTVU during the trial. "I warned the agency about allowing a warden to have access to these cameras."But Canales said all his warnings were ignored. Conversely, because it's well-known there aren't enough working cameras at the facility, Canales said some of the incarcerated women are now falsely accusing officers of sex crimes, causing unwanted angst and Internal Affairs investigations in the department.
Like at FCI Dublin, survivors of sexual abuse at prisons in New York and Kentucky testified that BOP employees assaulted them in areas where they knew there was no camera coverage.
