2 New Wrongful Death Cases in Texas
Both CCA and the GEO Group are facing backlash over the alleged wrongful deaths of prisoners in their care in Texas. The family of a prisoner at the Central Texas DF has sued the GEO Group for negligence in allowing their son to commit suicide, two days after he was removed from suicide watch. Then, at the Dawson State Jail in Dallas, a 30-year-old female prisoner less than two months before her anticipated release date. She apparently died of pneumonia after the medical staff at the facility failed to treat it. CCA doesn't provide medical care to prisoners at the facility, but leaked internal documents suggests CCA supervisors at the facility failed to follow protocol when they didn't call for medical attention sooner. The chief of security recommended firing a shift supervisor, but the warden at the facility declined to do so and couldn't identify any need for further training of his COs.

book-marking for a few of my sites but wasn't certain if it would yield any positive results. Many thanks.

Hi, I'm new to blogging and websites in general and was curious about how you got the "www" included in your domain name? I see your web address, "http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5021091294764115072&postID=8055250664075890325" has the www and my domain looks like, "http://mydomain.com". Do you know the easiest way I can change this? I'm using Wordpress platform.
