We turn our attention to the rape scandal and subsequent trials related to the closure of the federal women’s prison FCI Dublin. A number of guards at the prison have been charged and convicted for involvement in sexual assault against prisoners, and the last and final of those trials went to jury last week. The case has resulted in a surprising hung jury. Joining us to discuss is Lisa Fernandez, a veteran journalist working at KTVU Channel 2 in the Bay Area, who has been covering the sexual abuse scandal at the former women’s Federal Correctional Facility  in Dublin, California. Trigger warning – this conversation includes references to the sexual assault of prisoners.
