Prisoner Swap Sparks Outrage: Officers Union Complains to NDOC
Prisoner Swap Raises Questions on Safety and Security
The recent prisoner swap has stirred up significant backlash from the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP). The officers' union filed an official complaint against the Nevada Department of Corrections (NDOC), arguing that the swap jeopardizes safety protocols.
Concerns About High-Level Offenders
This controversial exchange involved transferring hundreds of high-level offenders to High Desert State Prison, located about an hour outside Las Vegas. The union's statement highlights their dissatisfaction with NDOC's handling of the situation, emphasizing that if the department thinks safety and security is paramount, that's a joke.
Union Calls for Accountability
FOP leaders are demanding actions to ensure the safety of both officers and inmates. They stress that without significant reforms, the risks associated with such transfers will continue to escalate. Immediate accountability and reform are necessary to maintain the integrity of correctional facilities.
