Advocates call for women inmates to be released instead of transferred from embattled Dublin prison

The California Coalition for Women Prisoners has filed a Temporary Restraining Order request to try and stop inmates from being transferred out of The Dublin Federal Correctional Institute. FCI Dublin is scheduled to close and inmates are set to be transferred to other facilities. "We see this as a huge evasion of accountability," said Emily Shapiro with the Coalition. FCI Dublin has been the center of a several-year investigation into sexual abuse towards inmates.
