Lucy Lang: Limiting solitary confinement
Manage episode 434333033 series 2478690
In 2021, New York state passed legislation aimed at limiting solitary confinement in prisons and jails. But a new report from state Inspector General Lucy Lang says that the state needs to modernize its record-keeping capabilities in order to comply with the law, known as the HALT Act.
Lang joined NY1’s Errol Louis to discuss the antiquated record-keeping systems — currently done by pen and paper — that have made it difficult to track the use of segregated confinement. They also talked about cracking down on cases of welfare fraud, as well as misconduct in the gaming industry.
