A third party report on conditions at the Regional jail on the Old Black River Road is now in the hands of Public Safety Minister Robert Trevors.
The Canadian Union of Public Employees is calling on Trevors to release the report. Mike Davidson of CUPE tells CHSJ News the union believes the report is scathing in its criticism of how the jail is being run.
He says the guards are being treated horrendously so it's no surprise that beatings among the inmates and riots occur at the facility.
Davidson argues the overcrowding makes the situation even more dangerous and inmates are also threatening the guards and their families.
