More than two dozen women incarcerated in an Idaho prison told us they were sexually abused by staff.
And we identified 37 prison workers accused of sexual misconduct toward imprisoned women in the last 10 years. Most resigned or faced few consequences. www.investigatewest.org/staff-sexual...

Staff sex abuse in Idaho women’s prisons largely unchecked
InvestigateWest reporting exposes sexual abuse by guards, retaliation against victims and a system that fails to track the scope of the problem

My position as a shared reporter with KNKX and Cascade PBS still has outside grant funding for another year, so I’ll continue doing journalism at KNKX. I don’t know what I’ll be doing at Cascade PBS yet. It will be really hard with the entire news team gutted.
