Alligator Alcatraz Detention Facility Reveals Handbook Outlining Detainees' Rights and Rules
A handbook detailing detainees' rights and rules has been disclosed following a lawsuit concerning access to legal services at Alligator Alcatraz, a Florida detention facility. Despite a ruling to phase out the facility due to environmental concerns, it continues to operate.
The handbook guarantees detainees' rights to freedom of religion, nutritious meals, toiletries, exercise, and healthcare. It also outlines rules for both detainees and guards, emphasizing mutual respect, cleanliness, and access to legal services. Detainees are required to maintain a high level of cleanliness and assist in general cleaning of their unit. They are to be issued numbers and color-coded uniforms based on their criminal history.
Guards are expected to maintain a positive demeanor and communicate with detainees to ensure mutual respect. The handbook includes warnings about protecting oneself from sexual assault and outlines disciplinary steps. However, lawyers report challenges in tracking clients and ensuring easy access to legal services for detainees.
The revelation of the handbook occurs amidst ongoing legal battles and environmental concerns surrounding Alligator Alcatraz. While the facility remains open pending a phase-out, the handbook serves as a guide for detainees and staff, outlining rights, responsibilities, and expectations.
