Guest commentary: Not even my rapist should be raped in prison
For more than a decade, I have fought to protect men and women behind bars from sexual abuse. I believe that, no matter what the crime, no one deserves to be raped -- not even the man who raped me.
Now that the PREA standards are released, the movement is focused on a new goal: ensuring their implementation. Advocates and survivors, working together with officials in jails, prisons and other detention facilities, are committed to securing their adoption in every facility nationwide.
