Democratic controlled puppets teamsters local 700 once again lose the PR battle to Sheriff Dart.. They applaud Dart's new policy that would effectively slap the wrists of inmates who sexually assault and or harass female staff..
Inmates who sexually assault female guards will not be permitted to have visitors for 60 days UNLESS THEY ARE FAMILY.. That is the Sheriff's ridiculous weak response to at least 219 female Corrections officers assaulted and or sexually harassed in the last 6 months inside the jail.. The Sheriff was only willing to take this action after numerous lawsuits were filed and his top aide Cara Smith was even an alleged victim of the 'masturbation tier"..
Teamsters Local 700 unbelievable response .
“We commend the sheriff for taking steps to address the sexual assault issues at the Cook County Department of Corrections, but we need to have further discussions on how to prevent the overall increase” in attacks on officers, said Strzechowski, whose union represents jail guards.
Inmates facing charges of murder, rape and other serious crimes formed the gang about six months ago in the Cook County Jail. Their goal is to sow chaos, officials say.
They throw feces and urine.
And they expose themselves and masturbate in the presence of female defense attorneys and female correctional officers. Authorities are taking public indecency in the jail so seriously that they’re addressing the problem through new state legislation and harsher jail discipline. The behavior, which is on the rise, underscores what a tough and perilous environment working in the jail can be.
“To be subjected to this behavior is awful,” said Cara Smith, chief of policy for Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, who runs the jail.
“We want to ensure a safe environment for anyone coming into the jail, including the public defenders,” said Smith, adding that she was once targeted by an inmate who exposed himself to her and other sheriff’s employees.
Last week, Smith discussed the problem on a conference call with Cook County Public Defender Amy Campanelli and Fabio Valentini, chief of criminal prosecutions for Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez.
There have been 219 incidents of inmates exposing themselves or masturbating in public between July 1, 2015, and Jan. 20, 2016, Smith said. Some are multiple offenders, she said.
