Rounding up some press pieces about (non-immigration) prisons and jails

There is no shortage of stories about immigration detention faciltiies these days, but that coverage has not entirely crowded out other prison pieces in recent weeks.  Here is a quick round up of some that recently caught my eye:

From Alabama Reflector, “‘Too many people dying:’ Speakers describe loved ones’ ordeals in Alabama prisons“

From the AP, “Oahu Jail Killing Shines a Light on Prison Gang Mayhem“

From Axios, “Prison debt is crushing Black women, advocates say“

From The Hill, “Prison reform laws could safely send thousands home — if they’re enforced“

From The Marshall Project, “New York’s Prison Guard Strike Ended Months Ago. For Some, Life-Threatening Effects Persist.“

From The Marshall Project as well, “What Happens When Someone Dies Inside One of America’s Worst Jails?“

From NBC News, “New Orleans officials mistakenly release inmate from same prison where 10 escaped in May“

From the New York Times, “More Freedom, Less Violence: Some States Look to European Prisons“
