National Guard members deployed in New York prisons are experiencing severe mistreatment, including female soldiers being filmed during private moments and exposure to harmful fumes from inmates' drug use. Although deployed due to a staffing crisis caused by a prison workers' strike, reports indicate the guards were inadequately trained. Women stationed at Taconic Correctional Facility reported being under constant video surveillance despite requests to deactivate the cameras. The prison's officials have acknowledged the allegations and are conducting investigations into privacy violations and safety concerns.
The guardsmen were subjected to humiliating video surveillance while changing clothes in the prison environment, raising serious concerns about their treatment and privacy.
A spokesperson for the facility acknowledged the serious nature of the allegations and promised a thorough investigation to ensure safety and privacy.
Female National Guard members requested the video surveillance to be turned off, only to find out that the cameras remained active.
Inmates were reportedly using prison tablets to create dangerous situations, inhaling noxious fumes from improperly disposed batteries, endangering the guards.
