BBC news- 'Violence rife at failing' prison
"Staff wouldn't push wheelchairs unless they were trained and staff wouldn't get themselves trained to push wheelchairs "
Makes me ponder. With all else that is happening around the world, (the current economic crisis, violence and terrorism, civil unrest and ongoing wars etc...), an unlikely group of people finds itself neglected and cast aside by society. At Parkhurst jail in the UK "...one disabled inmate had not showered for a year because staff had not helped him". !!!
This time the watchdog did its job well and changes are underway. But how many delinquent, irresponsible prisons slip through the cracks?
